absolute perfection
Good words from screenwriters Terry Rossio and Ted Elliot, from "Crap-Plus-One," on the website wordplayer.com:
"The only thing you can count on is the quality of your work. The surest bet is to be the best -- because over time, talent will out. It's commonly believed and commonly true. Great screenplays will get attention. It may take a while, but they will.
Not crap-plus-one, but brilliance, absolute perfection, that's your goal... and if you should fall one tick short of that, you'll still be in pretty good shape. "
