“Stupid word, that. Period. In America it means 'full stop,' like in punctuation. That's stupid as well. A period isn't a full stop. It's a new beginning. I don't mean all that creativity, life-giving force, earth-mother stuff, I mean it's a new beginning to the month, relief that you're not pregnant, when you don't have to have a child.” GivingWellsMeanChildrenEarthAmericaMotherForceStuffCreativityStupidMonthsPeriodsReliefPregnantNew BeginningsPunctuation Author:Michelene Wandor
“You can't build a plot out of jokes. You need tragic relief. And you need to let people know that when a lot of frightened people are running around with edged weaponry, there are deaths. Stupid deaths, usually. I'm not writing 'The A-Team' - if there's a fight going on, people will get hurt. Not letting this happen would be a betrayal.” PeopleIfsKnowsNeedsWritingHappensWould BeRunningFightingHurtTeamStupidJokesBetrayalReliefTragicPlotFrightenedWeaponry Author:Terry Pratchett
