A Quote by Lloyd Dorfman

I'm so excited about 'Shattered;' it's something I've really enjoyed working in, and it's very different from anything I've done before.

I mean there’s a certain finality about a movie, when it’s done it’s done – that raised eyebrow in that moment will always be that raised eyebrow.

Theatre you have to lean in, you have to tune your ear to the stage and participateI respond to heat. And blood. And humanity. The cold experience is not for me. I’ve always enjoyed all the real people in a room together in the theatre.
The New Capitalism (arising from the global economic downturn)...those running our biggest commercial businesses will have to be more visible.

I have loved my work, I have loved people and my play, but always I have been uplifted by the thought that what I have done well will live long and justify my life, that what I have done ill or never finished can now be handed on to others for endless days to be finished, perhaps better than I could have done.
