“You know, people always warn children about taking candy from strange adults. But they never warn us adults about taking candy from strange children.

“You know, people see [August: Osage County], and I tell them that it's based on my family, and they assume that I came from some kind of horrible, hysterical circumstances. That's not true.

My extended family, like every family, has some darkness, and some violence of some kind, emotional or otherwise, in their past.”
