“The most important lesson I learned...was that the winner of a gunplay usually was the one who took his time. The second was that, if I hoped to live on the frontier, I would shun flashy trick-shooting--grandstand play--as I would poison...In all my life as a frontier peace officer, I did not know a really proficient gunfighter who had anything but contempt for the gun-fanner, or the man who literally shot from the hip.” IfsKnowsMenImportantPlayHe ManLessonsGunShotsTricksHipsWinnerShootingPoisonContemptOfficersFrontiersImportant LessonsFlashy Author:Wyatt Earp
“Back before 'Brick,' I wrote a short film that I never ended up shooting: hit men in the present who work for a mob in the future who send their victims back in time. A guy is sent his future self, he lets him run, and the whole short was them chasing each other across the city. That sat in a drawer for 10 years until after I made 'Brothers Bloom.” MenYearsMadeSelfWholeRunningFilmGuyCitiesBrotherVictimShootingSatChasingBricksDrawersBack In TimeShort FilmsFuture Self Author:Rian Johnson

“It's often been said, "Violence never solved anything." The simple truth is that when you are slammed up against the wall and the knife is at your throat, when a circle of teenagers is kicking you as you curl into a ball on the sidewalk, or when the man walks into your office building or school with a pair of guns and starts shooting, only violence, or the reasonable threat of violence, is going to save your life. In the extreme moment, only force can stop force.” MenSaidMomentsSchoolForceSimpleWalksViolenceBuildingHe ManWallTruth IsOfficeGunBallsThreatExtremesCirclesTeenagerShootingReasonablePairsThroatKnivesGun ControlKickingCurlsSidewalkSimple TruthsOffice Buildings Author:Rory Miller
