      • “When it comes to the internet and the emerging media there's nothing there for the artists. There's no precedent; these media didn't exist the last time a contract was negotiated. We're not just talking about an unfair deal, we're talking about no deal at all.”

      • “I even went on national TV and said that the Republican-led Congress was spending money like drunken sailors.

        I have to tell you, a Navy captain in California admonished me. He said Congress was not spending money like drunken sailors; that drunken sailors spend their own money, and, when they run out, they quit spending. And I have to give it to him.”

      • “I love print. I love magazines that commit and pay for long articles and long fiction. The web rewards neither approach. It's a packeted medium, a surf medium. Short bursts are the way to go. The web isn't a replacement medium — it's *another* medium.”

      • “The problem with this song is not, as you might initially think, the bridge. That's the part where the nine, 11 and 12 year old girls sing, 'There's something 'bout them boys that makes me...' with the sound of panting finishing the line. I have no concerns about that. That's fucking perfect.”

      • “So here I am - in the controversial game of Oblivion. It is so vile that the ESRB forced a re-rating of the game as to make it for Mature players only. And what is it about?

        Well, in my game, it's about hopping and skipping through meadows picking flowers.”
