“My son, who's on the spectrum is a very rigid thinker. He needs clear-cut definitions of right and wrong. Anything hazy or gray confuses him. For instance, if I try to get him to see that a friend behaved badly, he'll often get upset with me because a friend is a 'good guy' by definition, in his book.” IfsNeedsTryingBookGuyClearCuttingSonDefinitionsInstanceUpsetMy SonGrayThinkerSpectrumGood GuyHazy Author:Bill Vaughan
“I'm drawn to the classic antihero, the guy who's probably made a bunch of mistakes and really has the capacity to go either way. That's the most interesting type of character for me to watch, to see what decisions they'll make. There's a lot of gray area there for a writer to explore.” WayMadeCharacterGuyDecisionInterestingMistakeWatchesTypeAreasCapacityBunchClassicGrayMost InterestingGray AreaAntiheroes Author:Kurt Sutter
“I'm a guy who has problems with moderation. All or nothing. Binge and purge. Kill or be killed. Gray is not a color I wear well. I should be dead. I know that. I should not be successful. I know that too. My daily existence is a toss of the coin - one side, fear, the other side, gratitude.” KnowsShouldWellsProblemGuySidesExistenceSuccessfulColorGratitudeBeing SuccessfulGrayModerationCoinsTossBinge Author:Kurt Sutter
“The rich plankton of pop heroes and pop villains on which we Americans are accustomed to feed, the daily media soup of sports figures, ax murderers, politicians, and rock singers, the ever-running river of celebs, heavies, and oddballs that we use to spice up our own relatively humdrum lives has of late become a very watery gruel. Where have all the good guys and bad guys gone? Why does everyone out there look so gray?” LooksDoeUseRunningGuySportsGoneRichRocksMediaFiguresHeroPoliticianLateRiversPopsSingersGrayVillainSoupMurdererAccustomedBad GuysSpicesGood GuyHumdrumOddballsCelebsPlankton Book:Talking woman Source: Talking woman
“Port Talbot is a steel town, where everything is covered with gray iron ore dust. Even the beach is completely littered with dust, it's just black. The sun was setting, and it was quite beautiful. The contrast was extraordinary, I had this image of a guy sitting there on this dingy beach with a portable radio, tuning in these strange Latin escapist songs like 'Brazil.' The music transported him somehow and made his world less gray.” WorldMadeBeautifulGuySongBlackSunStrangeSittingTownsExtraordinaryRadioSettingSettingsDustBeachIronLatinCoveredGrayContrastSteelPortBrazilTuningEscapistsIron Ore Author:Terry Gilliam
