“I've done films where you have to get in shape for purely vanity reasons, when you read a script, turn to page 87 and it says: "Rips his shirt off and casually throws it onto chair" - and you're going to go to the gym the next day because nobody wants to see your big fat arse out there taking your shirt off!” WantReasonDoneBigsFilmTurnsNextShapesPagesScriptsFatsVanityShirtsChairsGymNext DayRipArsesShirt OffGetting In Shape Author:Bruce Willis

“I remember on page one of The New York Times the article about Fred Leuchter. The heading was "Can Capital Punishment Be Humane" and it was the story about an electric chair repairman and execution machine designer.

Books on the TV set and in the closet, small piles of books, tall piles of books, books thick and thin, books old and new. They welcomed Meggie down to breakfast with invitingly opened pages; they kept boredom at bay when the weather was bad. And sometimes you fall over them.” BookSometimesFallHouseRoomsTvsPagesTablesCornersWeatherKitchenBoredomChairsTallBreakfastThickClosetsOld And NewInkheartThick And Thin Book:Inkheart Source: Inkheart

It felt like I should be sated after having a whole day with her, but it just made me miss her more.” ShouldMadeBookWholeFeltSoundFeetMissingHairColdShapesBedPagesShadowBreathsLegsSmellThrownChairsWetDesksHomeworkTowelsShufflingSated Book:Linger Source: Linger
