Young screenwriters are always very frustrated when they talk to me. They say, ‘How do we get to be a screenwriter?’ I say, ‘You know what you do? I’ll tell you the secret, it’s easy: Read ‘Hamlet.’ You know? Then read it again, and read it again, and read it until you understand it. Read ‘King Lear,’ and then read ‘Othello.’ – John Logan

When I was 6, a family friend gave me E.L. Konigsburg’s ‘A Proud Taste for Scarlet and Miniver’ and launched me on a full-blown Eleanor obsession. I wanted to ride off on Crusade, to launch a thousand troubadour songs, to marry a king – and then jilt him and marry another. – Lauren Willig

Rodney King is a progenitor of all these cell phone videos that we have. It was unusual that a person had a video camera to take a picture of the Rodney King beating.
