I don't think it feels like a burden. We did not really think of it ["Mary and Jane"] that way. I think it is certainly how we branded. The thing it does is enables us to be a little bit surreal.

We also had an "in" with MTV those days. Tara Reid was engaged to Carson Daly. She just called him and was like, "Do you want to be in the movie?" So they kind of had to make it work.

We did want it ["Mary and Jane"] to feel a little different and have some surreal weird touches, which we try to do every episode. That is what we took advantage of.

We like to make sure there is a plot at the center of it and that you care about the people but to poke fun of little things, like the toast restaurant in the pilot.

I think you know by now that I've been called many things by many people. Quitter is not one of them.

The skyscrapers began to rise again, frailly massive, elegantly utilitarian, images in their grace, audacity and inconclusiveness, of the whole character of the people who produces them.

They (the women) will always do it, it seems to me... I am woman and I am strong.

I wanted people to believe that there could still be this little undiscovered piece of the world that survives still on Skull Island.

All things from the north are devilish.

Her freckles were orange, as if somebody had spray-painted her face with liquid Cheetos.

I want to nominate a man who's cool on the outside, but who burns for America on the inside.
