I love ‘Mastermind’. It’s touching that people spend so much time learning. I do have quite good general knowledge, but I wouldn’t consider going on the show. I also like watching ‘Only Connect.’
I’m a big believer in playing truth and not doing things for effect. It’s not about whether you look pretty or glamorous. It’s about whether people connect. That’s important to me in any work I do.

I’m a feminist, but I think that romance has been taken away a bit for my generation. I think what people connect with in novels is this idea of an overpowering, encompassing love – and it being more important and special than anything and everything else.

I don’t have any interest in doing superhero franchise movies. I don’t connect to the fantastic, and I’m not a comic person – it’s just not my thing, so I’m not looking in that direction – but ambitious films on a big scale I’m very interested in looking at.
We ministers have undoubtedly failed to connect and apply Christianity to the practical everyday problems of the average man. In this, we have failed to follow in Christ’s footsteps.

I’m not subject to their rise and fall because I’m not accepted by them, so I have my own little curve going on. A lot of it is because of how much I play, I think I connect like when all you had was Vaudeville, I think I have an audience by performing a lot!

Adaptations are fun for me because they connect to the idea of filmmaking I had when I was a kid. I would see a movie and think: ‘I’m gonna make that movie.’
I feel like people make such a big deal out of sexuality. It’s so weird to me, because at the end of the day, it’s just about soul connection. It’s just about who you connect with.
Of all the fictions we heard last week in Tampa, the one I find most troubling is this: If we all just go our own way, our nation will be stronger for it. Because if we sever the threads that connect us, the only people who will go far are those who are already ahead.
Art, in the first place, has to connect with yourself.
I think there are a lot of really positive aspects to social media for novelists. Even though our work is pretty solitary, through Twitter and Tumblr and Facebook and Instagram and blogging in general, we’re better able to connect directly with readers.

Walking in stop-motion animation is probably the most difficult thing you can do… The way that they have these puppets connect to the set is they actually drill a hole in the set, and they put a threaded rod up through that hole and screw it into the bottom of their foot, and that keeps them in place.
I think there are a lot of successful people in this country who connect amazingly well with the American people and have – and one of the reasons they are successful is because they connect well.
