Martin on driving, Sherlock and the meaning of life
Thanks to Ancient's Gate for this link (Other section). I am glad to see that Martin mentions Harold Lloyd. I used to really like Harry Langdon silent movies (on TV, before my time before anyone makes a wise crack. I' m not THAT old!).

Don't make people into heroes John. Heroes don't exist and if they did I wouldn't be one of them.

Mycroft’s popularity doesn’t surprise me at all. He is, after all, incredibly beautiful, clever and well-dressed. And beautiful. Did I mention that?

Re: Martin on driving, Sherlock and the meaning of life
Very interesting interview. It's nice to see a celebrity who seems to have his head screwed on right and is well-grounded. BC seems to be that way, too. They would both do well to stay away from hollywood as much as possible, especially now that they have been in some high-profile projects.

Re: Martin on driving, Sherlock and the meaning of life
The interview seems to have been roughly mid-2010, apparently before Sherlock debuted.
And it seems to get around -- I already quoted this bit on the Nightwatching thread:
The things I’m proudest of haven’t been widely seen, such as The Robinsons ... and Nightwatching.
Of course, that was more-or-less pre-Sherlock, and definitely pre-Hobbit. But then, as JaneCo pointed out, he did also mention being proud (albeit not necessarily "proudest") of Sherlock:
If you can crack being enjoyed by more than 53 people in work you’re proud of, then you’re living. Sherlock is in that category.
