[The Rum Diary] is a prestigious movie and it's got a great, talented cast, so they wanted to make sure they had the right person for the role, but it was a torturous process. It was painful.
Curious, isn't it that "talking with the right people" means something so different from "talking with the right person"?
You write a book and it's like putting a message in a bottle and throwing it in the ocean. You don't know if it will ever reach any shores. And there, you see, sometimes it falls in the hands of the right person.
So I think you have to marry for the right reasons, and marry the right person.
I've realised now that the reality of children is you have to be in the right place with the right person.
One can sometimes do good by being the right person in the wrong place.
I've always thought it was about finding the right person. But it's about choosing the right person, isn't it?
I don't want the George Clooney lifelong bachelorhood. If I found the right person, I would commit in a minute.
I'm a romantic and will only marry for love where there's respect and compatibility. I'd like to be with someone if the right person came along. I really like male company. I like the male mind.
I'm pessimistic. I don't think that justice always gets the right person.
I knew that the right person for Crossroads would come along if we were just patient and made sure that we didn't try to force anything.
I didn't think I was the right person to do that job but I do think Michael Gove is and that's why I'm backing him.
I have concluded unequivocally that the right person is Michael Gove and I am delighted to be endorsing his candidacy.
And it's a question of who the parliamentary party thinks is the right person to lead - not just in terms of the negotiations but also the wider 'one nation' agenda that we set out in our manifesto last year and that we were elected on.
The idea that you can get everything you want in one person is destructive, and maybe when you accept that the number is closer to 50 or 60 or 70 percent, that's when you can start to make some progress in choosing the right person.
Well, of course, all of the statistics say there are fewer eligible black men in my circle. But I've never thought of it that way. I believe that if the right person came into my life that would have been terrific.
It's important to keep auditioning. If you're auditioning for something, you're auditioning for a role that people can't see you in and you need to convince them that you're the right person.
I love working with actors. If you cast the right person in the right part at the right time, they make you look like a better writer and director than you really are.
If the wrong person preaches a right teaching, even a right teaching can become wrong. If a right person expounds a wrong teaching, even a wrong teaching can become right.

The love is so powerful that both people have to surrender. I think that's the funny thing about dating somebody for the first time, it's kind of a question of who wears the pants, or who's gonna text you first, how much am I supposed to put myself out there, and it makes you feel a little bit crazy. But at the end of the day, it's not about that. And if it's the right person you don't have to worry about that.
It's not even so much about publicity, it's more just letting people know that things are available, because books aren't a flash in the pan thing. It's more like: "It took 20 years for this book to be done and now it'll be on a shelf for 20 years until the right person finds it."
