I just felt that you can't have a character fall in love so madly as they did in the last movie and not finish it off, understand it, get some closure. That's why the movie is called 'Quantum of Solace' - that's exactly what he's looking for.

Every abuse ought to be reformed, unless the reform is more dangerous than the abuse itself.

Voltaire (FrançoisMarie Arouet)

Fate keeps on happening.

Anita Loos

They say the sky is the same everywhere. Travellers, the shipwrecked, exiles, and the dying draw comfort from the thought[.]

Virginia Woolf

Nobody deserves your tears, but whoever deserves them will not make you cry.

Gabriel Garcia Marquez

Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is not safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing.

Helen Keller, Let Us Have Faith,

The ultimate function of prophecy is not to tell the future, but to make it. Your successful past will block your visions of the future.

Joel A. Barker

In this century the writer has carried on a conversation with madness. We might almost say of the twentieth-century writer that he aspires to madness. Some have made it, of course, and they hold special places in our regard. To a writer, madness is a final distillation of self, a final editing down. It's the drowning out of false voices.

Don DeLillo

Our lives were just beginning, our favorite moment was right now, our favorite songs were unwritten.

Rob Sheffield

People generally quarrel because they cannot argue.

G. K. Chesterton

We can see the Divine in each speck of dust, but that doesn't stop us from wiping it away with a wet sponge. The Divine doesn't disappear; it's transformed into the clean surface.

Paulo Coelho

To like many people spontaneously and without effort is perhaps the greatest of all sources of personal happiness.

Bertrand Russell

The game of science is, in principle, without end. He who decides one day that scientific statements do not call for any further test, and that they can be regarded as finally verified, retires from the game.

Karl Popper
