“There are trappings of science fiction which I kind of embrace, but there are also cliches which I run from.”

“Sometimes, if you leave yourself open, an actor can bring nice nuances to a character.”

“My hands are already full writing and directing, because that's a full time job. Actually, that's why I don't produce as well, as there's already enough producers.”

“I'm aware of cliches and I'm aware of experiments that have been done and I'm aware of a kind of deadness to a lot of realism both in the language and in the structure of a book.”

“New York cops are very specific in terms of the way they talk and the way they handle themselves. All these cliches that, as an Englishman, I thought were from a bygone era or were a bit of poetic license with cop shows - the more you hang out with them, the more you realize how real that jargon is.”

“I'm a gay man, living an out life for a long time, and it's tiring and anger-making to hear people continue to spit out the same old dreary cliches about the fact that gay men are doing something unnatural, and there'll be a price to pay when the Rapture happens.”
