Jonathan Nolan's Quotes

  • [on working with his brother Christopher Nolan] I've always suspected that it has something to do with the fact that he's left-handed and I'm right-handed, because he's somehow able to look at my ideas and flip them around in a way that's just a little bit more twisted and interesting. It's great to be able to work with him like that.
  • [on Person of Interest (2011)] (It's) maybe the only show I can think of that started out science fiction, and then by season three was basically a documentary.
