In the course of my lifetime, that world went from violence to a kind of peace.
‐‐ Kenneth Branagh
In the course of my movies, the financing and the releasing were always the tough part. Because I loved the creative; I loved the writing. I loved the making of it. Because, I guess, I never had the giant blockbuster, I never got that sort of ease for the next one.

In the crazy world of touring, if something gets stuck at customs, I can do a show with just my amp!
‐‐ Kerry King
In the creative industries, there are few things more exciting than a zinger - a thought, idea, line, plot device - anything really, that just totally works in a fundamentally new and fresh way. It's like a uniquely lovely melody or a new taste idea in cooking. Something special, something new, something wonderful. They're also very rare.
