Carson McCullers Quotes
This fear is one of the horrors of an author's life. Where does work come from? What chance, what small episode will start the chain of creation?

I was pretty well sunk while I was writing it.

It's not often I get to do a film that turns out good. Plus, there just aren't that many great directors out there. There are a thousand different decisions that need to be made with each script and it's the good directors that can make those decisions.

And the flame of the blue star of twilight, hung low on the rim of the sky,
Has awaked in our hearts, my beloved, a sadness that may not die.
