“Los Angeles is an uncanny place to live. It has many science fiction q...” — Martine Syms Quote

“Los Angeles is an uncanny place to live. It has many science fiction qualities. For example, when I'm standing in line at the supermarket and I recognise the person in front of me, but I can't figure out how I know them. Suddenly, I realise I saw them in some random commercial six years ago.”

“I think I do more fiction than autobiography.”

“My writing, it's mostly fiction, but I want it to feel intimate and real.”

“People show surprise that I have interests outside my political career. There is subtle surprise, for example, that I would be interested in a recipe.”

“Kate Moss, for example - she's never given a lot of interviews. She stays so mysterious. Nobody knows who she is, really.”

“I do feel it's tougher to make a comic scene work than performing an intense scene, for example.”
