"Today...major actors and actresses develop their own projects or, at the very least, cherry-pick their roles carefully to suit not only their tastes but also whatever image they have cultivated to present to their public. Most major stars have their own production companies through which such projects are developed and even financed. While the biggest male stars of that time did in fact have their own production companies--Jimmy Stewart, Kirk Douglas, John Wayne, and Burt Lancaster, to name a few--and thus exerted creative and financial control over their careers, that was not the case with female stars. But Marilyn Monroe was about to change that."

When a human is being himself, flowing with his inner nature, wearing his natural appropriate masks, integrated with his environment, he is normally unaware of subtleties in another's behavior. Only if the other person breaks a conventional pattern is awareness stimulated. However, breaking my established patterns was threatening to my deeply ingrained selves and pricked me to a lvel of consciousness which is unusual, unusual since the whole instinct of human behavior is to find environments congenial to the relaxation of consciousness. By creating problems for myself I created thought."
Author: Luke Rhinehart

16. "Snapping shut his mobile, Dalgliesh reflected that murder, a unique crime for which no reparation is ever possible, imposes it own compulsions as well as it's conventions. He doubted whether Macklefield [the murder victim's Will attorney] would have interrupted his country weekend for a less sensational crime. As a young officer he, too, had been touched, if unwillingly and temporarily, by the power of murder to attract even while it appalled and repelled. He had watched how people involved as innocent bystanders, provided they were unburdened by grief or suspicion, were engrossed by homicide, drawn inexorably to the place where the crime had occurred in fascinated disbelief. The crowd and the media who served them had not yet congregated outside the wrought-iron gates of the Manor. But they would come, and he doubted whether Chandler-Powell's [owner of the Manor where the murder was committed] private security team would be able to do more than inconvenience them."
Author: P.D. James

Author: Paddy Considine

Solo recordamos con tanta precision los dias marcados por algun acontecimiento historico del que hemos sido testigos, o por la muerte de algun familiar muy querido. Al hablar de un dia asi damos importancia capital a los detalles mas insignificantes; decimos: era martes, la una y media de la tarde, veintiocho de octubre; o bien: yo me encontraba en un rincon, alrededor de las dos y media llego el medico, unos minutos antes de las tres el enfermo pidio una limonada y, cuando murio, el reloj marcaba exactamente las tres y cuatro minutos. Los detalles no tienen ningun sentido en si, pero continuamos arrastrando su recuerdoa una escala exagerada. No hay otra forma de entender..., asi que nos agarramos a los desechos del mundo real, pues lo ocurrido es tan incomprensible que necesitamos algunos puntos de apoyo para no perder el equilibrio."
