"The Pulitzer has nothing to do with me; it's more about people's perceptions of me, whatever they ma..." — David Lindsay-Abaire

Pretty much, the writer's in charge in theater. Of course you're in charge with the director, but no one can change your words. People can give you notes, but you don't have to take them. In Hollywood you take them and you cash your check and that's your job. It's very different.

I'm just writing about people. People are dark and complicated. I'm trying to tell the truth; that's all that I do.

I don't want to work on a musical if I'm not the lyricist.

I'm going to do whatever interests me. Look, writing 'Rabbit Hole' came out of an interest in diversifying my portfolio, frankly.
