If I were beginning my career today, I don't think I would take the same direction. Television is at a crossroads at the moment.

People talk as if the act of death made a complete change in the nature, as well as in the condition of man. Death is the vehicle to another state of being, but possesses no power to qualify us for that state. In conveying us to a new world it does not give us a new heart.
— Hannah More
