“You have to understand that everyone that is Christian won't believe in forgiveness. So many Christians only believe in the Old Testament- an eye for an eye.

They are not at the level you are. They don't know how to put themselves in their enemies shoes, so they can understand them. They don't want to worry about anything other than their own issues. If you have finally found a place of forgiveness and mercy for those that wronged you, then you are far ahead of the masses and will be rewarded in heaven for what they could not bring themselves to do, but you did.”

You put the child in a jail.”

The director knows the script he is carrying around on the set every day was written by someone, and that's just not something that all directors easily digest.”
