I gave myself two months to book a job. One month later I was cast on 'Modern Family.'
Promiscuity is like never reading past the first page. Monogamy is like reading the same book over and over.
The first time I remember really being excited about a book was 'The Count of Monte Cristo.'
I have a vision of artists putting into film, drama, literature, music, and paintings great themes and great characters from the Book of Mormon.
The Book of Mormon Is the Word of God.
Indeed, the Lord has not forgotten! He has blessed us and others throughout the world with the Book of Mormon.
I don't know whether we Church members fully appreciate the Book of Mormon, one of our sacred scriptures, as we really should.
Many years ago, I was a producer on a movie called 'My Dog Skip.' Willie Morris, the great southern writer, had written the book. We had adapted it and taken 17 years of his life and compressed it into one year.
I've never gone back to the stacks after my book's expiration at the front of the store. Not because I'm above it or anything, but I'd be mortified if someone caught me looking for my own book.
The movie is actually from a book by Stephen King called The Body. When they were gonna put it to a motion picture, they found the story was a bit too strong for the title The Body, based on a young kid's movie. It would be too heavy.
A journalist gathers information for a media outlet that disseminates the information through a broadly defined 'medium' - including newspaper, nonfiction book, wire service, magazine, news Web site, television, radio or motion picture - for public use. This broad definition covers every form of legitimate journalism.
Hearing that the same men who brought us 'South Park' were mounting a musical to be called 'The Book of Mormon,' we were tempted to turn away, as from an inevitable massacre.
I began writing a book on love because I felt that the United States is moving away from love.
All you can hope for when you get a book adapted for TV is that you get a good actor and not some muppet off 'EastEnders.'
It is significant that one says book lover and music lover and art lover but not record lover or CD lover or, conversely, text lover.
With a book, there's no volume to turn up. You're very naked with a book.
A book I often refer to by Naomi Klein is called 'No Is Not Enough'. It's not enough to be against something. You have to actually be for something. A better alternative. For me, that's about transformation.
Everyone says I should write a natural history or landscape book because if I have an area of amateur expertise, it is in those things.
While 'The Wire' feels startlingly lifelike, it is not, in fact, a naturalistic depiction of ghetto life. That kind of realism better describes an earlier miniseries of Simon's, 'The Corner,' which was based on the book of the same title that he and Ed Burns wrote, set in the same Baltimore ghetto.
O Day of days when we can read! The reader and the book, either without the other is naught.
