Michael Schur’s 5 most popular quotes
- You can’t achieve anything entirely by yourself. There’s a support system that is a basic requirement of human existence. To be happy and successful on earth, you just have to have people that you rely on.
- You really don’t settle on an idea until you’re really sure it’s the best idea. Then once you settle on it you commit to it entirely. That was always the plan.
- You should be nice to people because it’s better to be nice to people than mean to people, not because you think there’s something in it for you.
- For storytelling purposes, there has to be conflict, but that doesn’t mean the people have to be mean. I’ve never liked mean-spirited comedy.
- I would far rather add a character who generates strong feelings than someone who just kind of floats along, generating medium-warmth smiles of gentle affirmation.
