“The idea ... that collective society should take hold of Evil and set it down hard in its chair and make it cry seems to many of us absolutely sound. Of course, we feel that it is not for us, those who love righteousness, to jump on the necks of the wicked.

“Press junkets are incredibly annoying. You sit in a chair for three to six hours and have different journalists shuttle in for three minutes at a time, asking cheesy movie questions to get a quick sound bite - and that's their only objective. You can't really move or eat. You're just stuck there. It's pressure, constant pressure.” DifferentMovingThreeSoundHoursMinutesSixPressureAskingPressesConstantStuckObjectivesJournalistChairsBitesAnnoyingCheesySound Bites Author:Annabella Sciorra

“I like to make my voice sound like a piece of tin that's been stuck on the side of a chair, lifted up as far as it would go and then let to spring - "doooiiinng." I like to make it into a piece of metal from time to time and I can do it, both with the movements in my throat and with, uh, my little toys... So I like to take it beyond just a voice, more into the realms of a weapon.” LittlesI CanSoundSidesVoiceCan DoPiecesMovementWeaponsSpringStuckRealmsChairsThroatMetalsToysI Can Do ItTin Author:Robert Plant
“Some comics get drunk before a show. I don't. When I get drunk, I don't want to stand in front of a bunch of people that I don't know. That does not sound comfortable.
