I think it's a fascinating thing to see how lonely people are in this world and what they're looking for. It's a universal concept. So, it's something that interests me and I'll probably revisit it if I get the chance to do the child soldier film because I think it's one of the most important scripts I've written. It's just too dark to do as a film right now. I need to do something a bit different.
Cary Fukunaga

And when he had put his hand on mine with a cheerful look, wherefrom I took courage, he brought me within to the secret things. Here sighs, laments, and deep wailings were resounding through the starless air; wherefore at first I wept thereat.

Dante Alighieri

For death is no more than a turning of us over from time to eternity.
William Penn

Often Hillary Clinton looks great, and sometimes she looks tired, heavier or puffier.
Maureen Dowd
