• Showrunning is not a one-man job; it's literally impossible to do for one person. I have learned the hard way now from two seasons, one with Red Widow, and this, I can't control everything.

• I have learned so much more about Islam in conversation with Jews and Christians and Hindus.

• I believe you can never stop growing and learning and I've been very fortunate to have been working since I was 10 or 11-years-old.

• Oh, my dear, if you only knew how strange is the matter regarding which I am here, it is you who would laugh. I have learned not to think little of any one's belief, no matter how strange it may be.
