“There are so many comics about violence. I'm not entertained or amused by violence, and I'd rather not have it in my life. Sex, on the other hand, is something the vast majority of us enjoy, yet it rarely seems to be the subject of comics. Pornography is usually bland, repetitive and ugly, and, at most, 'does the job.' I always wanted to make a book that is pornographic, but is also, I hope, beautiful, and mysterious, and engages the mind.” MindDoeBookHandsSeemsWantedJobsBeautifulSexEnjoyViolenceSubjectsMajorityUglyMysteriousPornographyAmusedRepetitiveBland Author:Dave McKean
“Every time I do anything, I have to ask myself: Is it a good role, and is it right to do it? There may be sex or nudity or violence in the script, and then you have to say: Is it gratuitous just out to shock people? Or is it there because it has to be? If a role demands it, and it isn't gratuitous, I'll do it. It's my job, after all. I'm an actress.” PeopleIfsMayJobsAsksSexRolesViolenceDemandScriptsActressesShockNudity Author:Julie Andrews
“I think that as a writer your responsibility is to search for and stir up the things that are in this world. There is violence in all of us, and beauty, and strength, and weakness. What's my job? To only write about the good and the beauty, or is it to write about all of it? That's my greater responsibility, to write about them as I see them and as they are.” ThinkingWorldWritingJobsResponsibilityGreaterViolenceThis WorldWeaknessStrength And Weakness Author:Markus Zusak
