““No one will be alive by the last book. In fact, they all die in the fifth. The sixth book will be just a thousand-page description of snow blowing across the graves.””

- George R.R. Martin
[when asked if he was going to let any Game of Thrones/Song of Ice and Fire characters live] (via let-them-eat-static)

“We are completely the puppets of all the actors, okay?...

Sat, 15 Jun 2013 09:42:00 -0700

“We are completely the puppets of all the actors, okay? They’ll be writing the script for us. Especially the six-year-old, she’s not gonna buy a word you’ve written.”
- Tarsem Singh, on the set of The Fall.

Tarsem Singh spent 8 years searching for the right actress to play Alexandria before he began shooting the film. Alexandria’s charming and enigmatic character was, according to Singh, the driving force that could carry the film’s story. The interactions seen between Roy and Alexandria are essentially unrefined and natural, and the chemistry between the actors is very tangible. The development of their onscreen relationship in the resulting scenes corresponds with the relationship Lee and Catinca built in reality, as the hospital scenes were filmed consecutively.

““We are all strangers in a strange land, longing for home, but not quite knowing what or where home is. We glimpse it sometimes in our dreams, or as we turn a corner, and suddenly there is a strange, sweet familiarity that vanishes almost as soon as it comes.”
~Madeleine L’Engle”

Jane Eyre

I think Jane is so fascinating because so many people read her personality differently. Personally, I just cannot see the argument that Jane is very demure, quiet, and proper. For Victorian times - she’s a borderline bad-ass. She lives in her own world, without a doubt - and she is friendless. But she is far from reserved. She wishes she was reserved - but she is dying for adventure.

“I would always rather be happy, than dignified.”- Jane Eyre

"Women are supposed to be very calm generally: but women feel just as men feel; they need exercise..."

Fri, 07 Jun 2013 01:00:00 -0700

“Women are supposed to be very calm generally: but women feel just as men feel; they need exercise for their faculties, and a field for their efforts as much as their brothers do; they suffer from too rigid a restraint, too absolute a stagnation, precisely as men would suffer; and it is narrow-minded in their more privileged fellow-creatures to say that they ought to confine themselves to making puddings and knitting stockings, to playing the piano and embroidering bags. It is thoughtless to condemn them, or laugh at them, if they seem to do more or learn more than custom has pronounced necessary for their sex.”

- Jane Eyre — Charlotte Bronte

“When we decide not to worship divinity, we do not stop worshipping: we merely find something less worthy to worship.”

Set your heart on victory:

I think that was a very clever line. It absolutely made sense in terms of character—that’s exactly what that version of the Doctor would say. So it didn’t break the fiction. But at the same time it was a bigger line than that. It was partly Russell [T Davies] expressing how he felt about leaving the show because we were all leaving together. —David Tennant, The Big Issue, 2012
