Quotes by Writing I improvise whenever I feel it's important, or whenever I think that something's there. It's nice to have a script that's so well-written that I don't have to improvise. I mean, I used to have to re-write whole movies; this is kind of nice. Bill Murray nicewritingmean The studios don't seem to foster good writing. They're not so interested in that, but they're more interested in what worked most recently. They're definitely very serious about making money, and that's not a wrong thing, but you don't have to make money the same way all the time.

I just stay in the present and then go over what I have to do. Bill O'Reilly writingbookthinking I am an author-illustrator of children's books - and yet - I must confess I don't do the books for the kids.

We certainly put the 'in sickness and in health' vow to the test the last year and half. Bill Rancic writingmeanthinking I have been received more warmly by Everton than I have by Liverpool. It is scandalous that I should have to write these things about the club that I helped build into what it is today.
