“Each part of our genome is unique. We would not be alive if there was not a single mathematical solution for our chromosomes. We would just be scrambled goo.”

“The interpretation of medicine today is 'do your clinical values fall within a normal range?' Everything in the globe right now is in the law of averages, which mean absolutely nothing to individuals.”

“I like to take a little of what I learned in fiction and apply it to documentary and vice versa.”

“I've always written very tightly, and there's a good reason for that. There's no point in using words that you're not going to apply.”

“When I was younger there was no programming that talked about disability in the way that we do. I wish there had been because, I'll be honest, I was very reticent to even apply for Channel 4 because I thought, 'there isn't any of us on TV,' and I thought there must be a reason for that, society doesn't think it's appropriate?”
