- "I don’t like the idea of “understanding” a film. I don’t believe that rational understanding is an essential element in the reception of any work of art. Either a film has something to say to you or it hasn’t. If you are moved by it, you don’t need it explained to you. If not, no explanation can make you moved by it." – Federico Fellini
- "I think it's very healthy to spend time alone. You need to know how to be alone and not be defined by another person.” – Oscar Wilde.
- "No story lives unless someone wants to listen." - J.K. Rowling
- “Both Rowling and Meyer, they’re speaking directly to young people. … The real difference is that Jo Rowling is a terrific writer and Stephenie Meyer can’t write worth a darn. She’s not very good.” ― Stephen King
- "You can write a great character but if it’s not acted right then it doesn’t mean anything, and what any writer or producer would tell you is, what is amazing - and I know that it’s the case with Misha - when you write a great character but then they come in and even bring it to whole other level. Misha just, he’s amazing as Cas, and I think this guy is gonna do okay, I think this is not the last we see him, this Misha." – Adam Glass (all of it, actually)
- “ Happiness was born a twin. ” — Lord Byron
- "The Doctor is a very special part, and it takes a very special actor to play him. You need to be old and young at the same time, a boffin and an action hero, a cheeky schoolboy and the wise old man of the universe. As soon as Matt walked through the door, and blew us away with a bold and brand new take on the Time Lord, we knew we had our man." — Steven Moffat on Smith's casting
- “Though I am often in the depths of misery, there is still calmness, pure harmony and music inside me. I see paintings or drawings in the poorest cottages, in the dirtiest corners. And my mind is driven towards these things with an irresistible momentum.” - Vincent Van Gogh
- "...she did something very, very hard, and she did it very, very well, thus pleasing hundreds of millions of children and adults very, very much. In an era of video game consoles, online multiplayer “environments,” and tinier-is-better [web-based entertainment], she got people to tote around her big, fat old-fashioned printed-on-paper books as if they were the hottest new entertainment devices on the planet." - Mark Harris, on J.K. Rowling
- "The world does not owe you a living, you owe the world something. You owe it your time, energy, and talent so that no one will be at war, in sickness and lonely again. In other words grow up, stop being a cry baby, get out of your dream world and develop a backbone not a wishbone. Start behaving like a responsible person. You are important and you are needed. It's too late to sit around and wait for somebody to do something someday. Someday is now and that somebody is you!" Words For Teenagers - 1959
- "Nobody panics when things go "according to plan." Even if the plan is horrifying! If, tomorrow, I tell the press that, like, a gang banger will get shot, or a truckload of soldiers will be blown up, nobody panics, because it's all "part of the plan". But when I say that one little old mayor will die, well then everyone loses their minds!" The Joker - The Dark Knight
- "When I was robbed and I called the police, the didn't ask me if the TV was visible through the window. They didn't ask if my laptop was sitting in full view. They didn't say that my house looked more wealthy than the neighbor's houses. They didn't even dwell on the fact that I didn't have a good alarm system. I was robbed. I wqas wronged. It wasn't my fault. Yet when a woman get raped, they try to find as many ways as possible to blame it on the woman without considering what the man did at all." A comment on the Youtube (x)
- "Damon awakens her excitement. Stefan feeds her soul. Excitement will go away with time, but eternal love will go strong" - Nina Dobrev
- "Just keep moving forward and don't give a shit about what anybody thinks. Do what youhave to do, for you" Johnny Depp (x)
- “Gray day. Everything is gray. I watch. But nothing moves today.” ― Dr. Seuss
- “Seeing Billie and David standing on set together was quite epic. Billie told me that as she is very good friends with both Matt and David, she felt quite torn and divided. She didn’t know how to deal with both of them at the same time, so if she was talking to one she would stroke the arm of the other.” ― Steven Moffat (x)
