"I wanted to do something about a really optimistic character: a character who was so optimistic, no ..." — Amy Heckerling

I attended Art & Design High School, and at one point, you had to write about what you wanted to be when you grew up. I wrote that I wanted to be a writer for 'Mad' magazine.

I'm just not happy with Hollywood.

Everybody who worked in film misses holding pieces of film, holding it up to the light, and seeing exactly where something was image-wise.

I'm real excited by a phone where I can look at my kid and talk to her face.
