"Everyone fantasizes. We all want to be something we're not."

[On receiving the script for the "Hulk" pilot] "I didn't even like the title. I wanted to make fun of it because of its name. I told my agent, 'You've got to be kidding!' when he suggested I might be interested in it. He said, 'Read it!' and so I took it home and thanks to his intelligence, I did read it. Right away I knew this could be done in the style of the monster pictures or the creature films of the 1940s.

"I'm a loner as a person, but then I always was, even as a child."

"I cannot tell you how disappointed I was. I wanted that series to go on to the point when it came to the teenage stage and we could deal with these problems in an honest contemporary way. But our time slot was changed so often we weren't given a fighting chance. You can't expect people to find you at home when you change your address so often." [on the cancellation of The Courtship of Eddie's Father]
