William Goldman by Peter Jones (but Getty also says it's by Alex Gotfryd; nobody knows anything.)
"You realize you’re not going to be Chekhov, you’re not going to be Cervantes, you’re not going to be Irwin Shaw, who is the crucial figure for me. And so you go into your pit alone, hoping, trying to fake yourself out that this time you will be wonderful."

"I look at every project with two hats. My artist's hat. And my hooker's hat."
