’…what's your favorite color, your favorite ice cream flavor, and your favorite season?’ ‘Blue, coffee, and winter.’ ‘Winter. No one likes winter.’ ‘It gets dark early, I like that.’ ‘Why?’ Because that means the day has ended. I like checking days off a calendar—151 days crossed and nothing truly horrible has happened. 152 and the world isn't ruined. 153 and I haven't destroyed anyone. 154 and no one really hates me. Sometimes I think I won't ever feel safe until I can count my last days on one hand. Three more days to get through until I don't have to worry about life anymore.

Gillian Flynn, Sharp Objects

The plain fact is that the planet does not need more "successful" people. But it does desperately need more peacemakers, healers, restorers, storytellers, and lovers of every shape and form. It needs people who live well in their places. It needs people of moral courage willing to join the fight to make the world habitable and humane. And these needs have little to do with success as our culture has defined it.

Изглежда, в някакъв момент той осъзнаваше празнотата на стола и му беше необходимо там да седи някой с истинска плът. Той се втурваше в спалнята, събуждаше жена си и децата си (ако те вече не бяха избягали) и с дъжд от най-вулгарни псувни и ругатни се опитваше да ги предизвика да му окажат някаква съпротива. Гласът му ту се извисяваше в истерични викове, ту стихваше в заканителни ниски тонове, ту избухваше в някакъв ужасен смях. Обикновено дързостта принадлежеше на дъщеря му. Тя заставаше срещу него и яростно започваше да вика: „Ти си най-лошият, най-черният, най-отвратителният човек на света! И ти знаеш това и си го изкарваш на нас! Ако съвестта те гризе, защо не се самоубиеш, ами биеш!“

There's one sequence that took one and a half months to shoot for three minutes of film. It involves the most complex camera moves, very sophisticated explosive algorithms, 3D Phantom camera travelling at 50mph while shooting at 3,100 frames per second. Evan worked more days on this movie than any other actor because of this one sequence.
