It's been suggested that if the supernaturalists really had the powers they claim, they'd win the lottery every week. I prefer to point out that they could also win a Nobel Prize for discovering fundamental physical forces hitherto unknown to science.

I've been lucky. I've made films that I really like. It's been a combination of what comes to me and what I choose. I've gone after lots of things that I didn't get, pet projects that everybody ends up chasing after. Really, you're lucky if you get anything.

He was too well accustomed to suffering, and had suffered too much where he was, to bewail the prospect of change very severely.

Charles Dickens

All women are misfits. We do not fit into this world without amputations.

Marge Piercy
