Often, I find it really hard to see what I'm doing when I'm in the thick of things. I can get too precious and have to force myself to put my paintings aside. There's a wall in my studio where I hang paintings that I think are done or nearly done. Ov...

Theoden: Crops can be re-sown, homes re-built. Within these walls... we will outlast them. Aragorn: They do not come to destroy Rohan's crops or villages. They come to destroy its people. Down to the last child. Theoden: What will you have me do? Loo...
Fred Gailey: I must be a pretty good lawyer. I took a little old man and proved to the world that... [looks off screen] Doris: [sees a cane resting on the wall] Oh no, it can't be. It must have been left by the people who moved out. Fred Gailey: Mayb...
[first lines] Pink: [singing] So ya, thought ya might like to, go to the show. To feel the warm thrill of confusing that space cadet glow. Tell me is something eluding you sunshine? Is this not what you expected to see? If you wanna find out what's b...
[on seeing Kerim Bey's office in shambles] James Bond: Well... who won? Kerim Bey: I had visitors. Limpet mine on the wall outside - timed to catch me at my desk. But by good fortune, I was relaxing on the settee for a few moments. The girl left in h...
