“FlashForward' is definitely not a sci-fi show. It doesn't have the mythology of 'Lost.' We have one major event that happens that you are asked to buy into. After that, you're dealing with very human ripple effects - how people deal with it and how they come to terms with it.” PeopleHumansShowsHappensLostTermDealsEffectsEventsMajorsMythologySci FiRippleRipple Effect Author:Sonya Walger

“It was a show where you were given a quote out of current events and you had to identify who said it. I was reading eight newspapers a day and had compiled a file of about 300 quotes.

“Science fiction that's just about people wandering around in space ships shooting each other with ray guns is very dull. I like it when it enables you to do fairly radical reinterpretations of human experience, just to show all the different interpretations that can be put on apparently fairly simple and commonplace events. That I find fun.” PeopleHumansDifferentShowsFunSimpleSpaceFictionEventsGunScience FictionShipsWanderRadicalShootingDullInterpretationRaysHuman ExperienceCommonplaceWandering AroundDifferent InterpretationsReinterpretation Author:Douglas Adams
“Everyone goes to the 'Grands-Boulevards' (in Paris, ed.) and let himself loose... ...Do not picture these in costume, they are not for the most part... ...perhaps a clown with a big nose, or two girls with bare necks and short skirts... ...the parade of the queens of the halls (markets) is also one of the events... ...Some are pretty but look awkward in their silk dresses and crowns, particularly as the broad sun displays their defects - perhaps a neck too thin or a painted face which shows ghastley white in the sunlight.” LooksTwoShowsBigsFacesGirlWhiteSunEventsDressesNosesQueensParisNecksHallsBroadsDisplayAwkwardSunlightCrownsCostumesDefectsClownSkirtsSilkParadesBoulevardShort SkirtsBig NosePainted Faces Author:Edward Hopper

“People who worked with me or knew me still called me the 'world's fastest human' because I almost never stopped. I'd found that I could get more done with no regular job or regular hours at all, but by being on my own, flying to speak here, help with a public relations campaign for some client there, tape my regular jazz radio show one morning at 5:00 a.m. before leaving on a plane for another city or another continent three hours later to preside over a major sporting event.” PeopleWorldHumansStillsDoneHelpingShowsJobsThreeFoundSpeakSportsHoursMy OwnCitiesMorningEventsMajorsRelationJazzLeavingAthleteRadioCampaignsFlyingPlanesTapeContinentsClientsPublic RelationsSporting Events Book:Jesse, a spiritual autobiography Source: Jesse, a spiritual autobiography
“Nature, at all events, humanly speaking, is manifestly very fond of color; for she has made nothing without it. Her skies are blue; her fields, green; her waters vary with her skies; her animals, vegetables, minerals, are all colored. She paints a great any of them in apparently superfluous hues, as if to show the dullest eye how she loves color.” IfsMadeShowsEyeWaterNatureAnimalSkyEventsFieldsColorBlueGreenPaintVegetablesVarySuperfluousMineralsHue Author:Leigh Hunt
