Quotes 

• Himself - Winner: Outstanding Writing for a Drama Series and Outstanding Drama Series : George Martin, happy birthday, sir, and thank you for inviting us all into your dream. To HBO, especially Richard Plepler and Mike Lombardo, thank you for taking a chance on two schmucks with no experience.

  Himself - Co-Winner: Outstanding Writing for a Drama Series and Outstanding Drama Series : Wow. When people say they didn't plan things, I always thought they were. Oh, our amazing cast and crew our amazing cast and crew, let's not forget them. Rain, sleet, snow desert's darkness, they always deliver their brilliance and dedication. Our producing team, year after year, achieves the impossible, especially the inimitably Bernie Caulfield.

• Himself - Winner: Outstanding Writing for a Drama Series and Outstanding Drama Series : All righty. Let's see. I made a promise. Thank you, Goddess. Thank you Goddess. I promised the Goddess I would thank her. So - and Amazon. Goddess first, Amazon second. And the Academy and Jeff Bezos, Joe Lewis, Ray Price, for giving me this incredible artistic freedom. My producing partners, Andrea Sperling and Victor Hsu and Rick Rosenthal. My crew, Jim Frohna, my cinematographer and the rest of the crew, my beautiful, beautiful writers, actors, especially Jeffrey Tambor and how you channel Maura. My family, Felix, Isaac, and Bruce, who puts the music in the show and the music in everything. My other family, my sister, Faith; my momma, Lane; and my moppa, Carry. Thank you, Moppa, for coming out and coming to L.A. and coming here tonight. And something interesting about my moppa, Carry, she could tomorrow go and try to find an apartment, and in 32 states, it would be illegal for the landlord to look her in the eye and say, "We don't rent to transpeople." We don't have a trans tipping point yet. We have a trans and civil rights problem. So go to transequality.org, and go to vote to pass the Transequality Bill. Thank you.

  Himself - Co-Winner: Outstanding Writing for a Drama Series and Outstanding Drama Series : We forgot to thank the great David Nutter for directing the episode for which we won our award. We also forgot to thank Todd, Guymon and Gretchen for having our backs for all these years. Nina Gold and Robert Sterne are the casting directors responsible for our amazing cast, of whom these are only a few. Over the years, they've provided us with a group of people that we are so fortunate to work with and call friends. Thank you, Nina and Robert.

  Himself - Winner: Outstanding Writing for a Drama Series and Outstanding Drama Series : And thank you to HBO, in their wisdom, paired a couple of novice producers with people of experience. We want to thank them. They're standing behind us, Bernie Caulfield, Chris Newman, Frank Doelger, Carolyn Strauss. We would you know, you're the reason we're up here. And finally, just thanks again HBO for believing in dragons. Thank you. And thank you all for watching.
