[Being a ‘geek’] has become a badge of honor. It’s geeks who really make or break a TV show or movie or video game. They’re the ones who are passionate about these things and who collect [the paraphernalia] and talk about them. A geek is really somebody interested in communication and entertainment and [finding] the best way to avail himself or herself to it.

So, my son and I went backstage, and the first person I see is Lin coming out of his dressing room. I was still, like, trying to maintain emotional respectability, which I was not doing a very good job of. Lin comes up to me to shake my hand, and I slapped his hand away and said, “Get the fuck out of here,” and I gave him a big hug. I was starting to lose it, and I go, “I just need a second, I gotta figure out what I’m gonna say.” And he starts to cry! And he goes, “You don’t understand, you’re the reason this show exists.” And I went, “I’m sorry, what?!” And he goes, “You! The West Wing! You’re the reason! Did you see me do this?” He put his hand to his heart, and I went, “Yeah, I did notice that.” He said, “I was showing off, because I knew you were in the audience!” I have never been so proud to be associated with The West Wing, as I was in that moment. The greatest piece of art created in my lifetime was a response- or inspired by- The West Wing. – Richard Schiff on meeting Lin-Manuel Miranda for the first time after a Hamilton performance
