->''"How do I know why I ever thought of the revolting man? I must have been mad! Why a Finn when I know nothing about Finland? Why a vegetarian? Why all the idiotic manerisms he’s got? These things just happen. You try something—and people seem to like it—and then you go on—and before you know where you are, you’ve got someone like that maddening Sven Hjerson tied to you for life. And people even write and say how fond you must be of him. Fond of him? If I met that bony, gangling, vegetable-eating Finn in real life, I’d do a better murder than any I’ve ever invented."''

->{{Film/Aloha}} ''was arguably the biggest flop of the year: another painfully earnest, meandering dramedy from our blandest director, featuring Creator/EmmaStone in [[ButNotTooForeign Asianface.]] Emma Stone! You can’t have a character named Allison Ng played by an actress who looks like she was [[WTHCastingAgency conceived by two Irish street fairs.]] Some of then–Sony head Amy Pascal’s best leaked e-mails were about how much she regretted green-lighting the film: ''“I’m never starting a movie again when the script is ridiculous.”'' Maybe this will stop movie studios from handing Crowe millions of dollars to make movies solely designed to showcase [[AuthorAppeal his taste in dad rock.]]''

->"She was a total bitch, screaming at everyone and saying, ‘Don’t you know who I am?’ ...When she fell asleep, one steward said, ‘I’m going to get that bitch’ and [[Film/MommieDearest grabbed a bunch of wire hangers]] and put them on the seat next to her. All the other passengers were snickering. When she woke up as the plane landed, she was wide-eyed with fury, and looked around at whom to blame but had no idea who did it. Then she got up and did yoga in the aisle to calm herself down."

->''A number of wiser and better writers than me tell me that it is '''universal''' among writers to be embarrassed by anything they've ever written, but I never really believed it until now. The first chapter of this story is ''terrible''. It is '''shamefully bad''' I can't imagine how ''any'' of you managed to stand it. I got three pages in and closed the lid of my laptop by reflex as a defence mechanism to get the ''horror away.

-->-- Discussing Ricky's old band on ''Radio/DesertIslandDiscs''.

->"I wrote the episode, or at least the teleplay. It’s a terrible episode. People are very unforgiving about that episode. I’ve written well over a hundred episodes of ''Star Trek'', yet it seems to be the only episode anyone brings up, you know? 'Brannon Braga, who wrote 'Threshold'!' Out of a hundred and some episodes, you’re gonna have some stinkers! Unfortunately, that was a royal, steaming stinker."

->''I guess I should just accept "[[VideoGame/TheHalloweenHack bad rom hack with swears]]" as part of my eternal legacy''

->''I can’t bear reading my own writing. It’s one of the most exquisite tortures I can imagine. That said, I did the best job I could at the time, and I’m proud of the book.''

-->-- '''Creator/JohnLasseter''' on the infamous Black Friday cut of ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory1''.

->''I understand there has been some controversy about my participation in a documentary called THE PRINCIPLE. Let me assure everyone that I completely agree with the eminent physicist Lawrence Krauss, who was himself misrepresented in the film, and who has written a succinct rebuttal in SLATE. I am not a geocentrist, nor am I in any way a proponent of geocentrism. More importantly, I do not subscribe to anything Robert Sungenis has written regarding science and history and, had I known of his involvement, would most certainly have avoided this documentary. I was a voice for hire, and a misinformed one, at that. I apologize for any confusion that my voice on this trailer may have caused.''
-->-- '''Creator/KateMulgrew''', Facebook statement after realizing she was duped into narrating a fundamentalist Christian DocumentaryOfLies

->"Abandoned. I consider this the fan fic I most regret writing, but I admit it's not the worst thing I've written. A bad yaoi story I wrote in high school was WAAAAAAAAAAY worse, along with my super bad ''[[WesternAnimation/SuperRobtMonkeyTeamHyperforceGo Super Robot Monkey Team]]'' fan fics from seventh grade. That being said, I don't like talking about this fic in any capacity, and I'd rather put it behind me."
