Quotes

  • [on making original content] If your vision is unique and different and costs money, it's a big risk! It's that simple.
  • [Lorne explaining how his work is relate-able to others] Abe's biggest crime is he didn't just piss off his managers, he didn't just get in fights with the security guards, he didn't just get busted by the cops, he's fucked over the CEO of a major corporation that has a lot of investors... There's some young people in the audience, I'm sorry.
