“Any adaptation - and I've done three in my career. I did 'Sweeney Todd...” — John Logan Quote

“Any adaptation - and I've done three in my career. I did 'Sweeney Todd' and 'Hugo' and 'Coriolanus.' It's important to find what makes it a movie as opposed to just a film presentation of a stage play.”

“I'm a very private person, a very bookish person. The social world of Hollywood I know nothing about because I choose not to take part.”

“Everything worthwhile ends. We are in the perpetual process now: creation, maturation, cessation.”

“They give me the money, I give them the book. Having input into the adaptation would be kind of like selling a house and coming back three years later and saying, 'Paint it this color!'”

“I made some adaptations, as I combined karate with my boxing game. I'm adding a couple of nice things from Shotokan to my game.”

“Shakti' is a very loose adaptation of 'Not Without My Daughter.'”
