“Honest rejection of Christ, however mistaken, will be forgiven and healed ... but to evade the Son of Man, to look the other way, to pretend you haven't noticed, to become suddenly absorbed in something on the other side of the street, to leave the receiver off the telephone because it might be He who was ringing up, to leave unopened certain letters in a strange handwriting because they might be from Him -- this is a different matter. You may not be certain yet whether you ought to be a Christian; but you do know you ought to be a Man, not an ostrich, hiding its head in the sand.” KnowsMenWayLooksMayDifferentMatterMightChristianCertainSidesChristStreetsHonestHavensStrangeSonOughtLettersRejectionSandHidingMistakenForgivenTelephonesBe A ManHealedReceiverHandwritingOstriches Author:C.

“In New Haven, Conn., when I was growing up, there were two sorts of Irish. There were the "drugstore cowboy" micks, who hung around the Elm Street poolroom over Longley's Lunch. And there were the earnest young Irishmen who fought their way up from the Grand Avenue saloonkeeper backgrounds of their fathers, went through Yale Law School, and have now found high place by the preferment of local politics or in the teaching profession.” WayTwoBookSchoolLawYoungFoundFatherGrowing UpGrowingStreetsTeachingHavensProfessionBackgroundsLocalsLunchHungCowboyEarnestAvenuesLaw SchoolYaleHigh PlacesIrishmenTeaching Profession Book:Studs Lonigan Source: Studs Lonigan
“New Haven cultivates ... an open gloom that seems happy to acknowledge disrepair and the superfluity of appearance. ...

“I haven't done it by myself at all. I've been surrounded by a really, really good crew of all ages. I think it's important to have a good age range in the crew so that some of us have experienced that period, or something close to that. But the script, of course, is really inspiring and you just have to trust that. Sometimes on film a glass can be as big as a car, so if the details are right, then they take up as much space on screen as the streets that we didn't have a chance to show as London really has changed since then.” IfsThinkingImportantSometimesDoneShowsBigsAgeFilmCoursesChanceSpaceStreetsCarHavensChangedPeriodsScriptsGlassesDetailsLondonScreensRangeCrewReally Inspiring Author:Lone Scherfig
