Bessel van der Kolk Quotes
In contrast to Noam, traumatized people become stuck, stopped in their growth because they can’t integrate new experiences into their lives. I was very moved when the veterans of Patton’s army gave me a World War II army-issue watch for Christmas, but it was a sad memento of the year their lives had effectively stopped: 1944. Being traumatized means continuing to organize your life as if the trauma were still going on—unchanged and immutable—as every new encounter or event is contaminated by the past.

I like to do a movie, to be on it 8, 10 weeks. It evolves as you're working on it. Little things come to you every day.

So if it's going to be television, it's really got to be the right thing.
