As I Knew Him by Anne Serling
"A sweetly nostalgic look back at a father-daughter relationship that would have been extraordinary even if it were not between a well known figure such as Rod Serling and his daughter. Drawing heavily on letters written by Rod Serling and the memorie" Read more of this review »
As I Knew Him by Anne Serling
"Very touching. More a memoir from a daughter to a beloved father than a bio on Rod Serling, but enjoyable all the same."

Quotes by Anne Serling  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“The gifts and the lessons my father left me will last forever: Never take yourself too seriously, never miss a chance to laugh long and hard, speak out about political and social issues you believe in, use the written word as often as you can to make yourself and the world a better place, and love your children with all you've got.
My dad's death had a seismic effect on me but so did his life.”
Anne Serling, As I Knew Him: My Dad, Rod Serling

“On a deeper level, the film [Seven Days in May] displays several themes that are important to my father throughout his career. Prime among these is not succumbing to fear born of ignorance. In the nuclear age, he seems to be telling us, we can't throw up our hands in helplessness over the enormity of the problem. With the stakes as dire as they are, we must all work positively to change things for the better. I think that is why he believes so firmly in the idea of the United Nations. As in 'Twilight Zone's' "The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street", my dad is warning us that the greatest threat we face is if a potential enemy uses our fears to get us to start destroying ourselves.”
Anne Serling, As I Knew Him: My Dad, Rod Serling

Book Nook Cafe: Quotes ~~ 2022 669 49 Jan 04, 2023 08:24PM  
“We're developing a new citizenry. One that will be very selective about cereals and automobiles, but won't be able to think.”
Rod Serling

“If you can't explain it to a six year old, you don't understand it yourself.”
Albert Einstein

“If something inside of you is real, we will probably find it interesting, and it will probably be universal. So you must risk placing real emotion at the center of your work. Write straight into the emotional center of things. Write toward vulnerability. Risk being unliked. Tell the truth as you understand it. If you’re a writer you have a moral obligation to do this. And it is a revolutionary act—truth is always subversive.”
Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird

“Why do we write?
"To make suffering endurable
To make evil intelligible
To make justice desirable
and . . . to make love possible”
Roger Rosenblatt, Unless It Moves the Human Heart: The Craft and Art of Writing
