I just have a very rational idea as to who we’re dealing with, and that we’re not making a picture for Harvard Law School, we’re making a picture for middle-class people, the people that you see on the subway, or the people that you see in a restaurant. Just normal people.

I feel for young people today. When I came out of law school, yes, we were broke, we had kids, we had problems. But it was straightforward.
