Character: John Merlin

I can't stand waiting for someone. I wasn't mad at them because they were late. So why should they be mad at me for something I never received?

Art exists in order that people understand how to live.

Writers must have some gift, some talent so that reading their books would bring pleasure, would learn something new. With the film the gift and talent was not required. You could find some rich guy who wants to tell the story of his life, and without the help of the great Director, great writer, great actors - the list goes on - through the magic of cinema to become a hero. Great future movie was the fact that create it to those whom nature is completely deprived of talent. Of course, the talented people would have done better, but went so.

A great writer in my personal life not always is an example to follow.

All those people, unlovable, not understanding that it is necessary to exert some effort if you want to be loved...

In the campus of each College students instead of writing novels, shooting movies. And suddenly it dawned on me that movies is not even art, but a form of therapy. Everyone wanted to tell the story of his life, to Express their emotions and thoughts. But many books were published for the same reason. Only magic has not stood out so clearly in books, paintings, music. Film incorporates all the arts, cinema smelled dead. It seemed incredible that, with such a powerful Arsenal, you can make a bad movie. You could be a real jackass, but to make good films. It is not surprising that among filmmakers so flourished nepotism. You could order the script to a nephew of the mistress to make a movie star's son to appoint the head of the Studio. Movie could turn into a celebrity any mediocrity. In the literature, this focus has not passed.

Movies can give pleasure and cause emotional distress, but teach almost nothing can. Unlike books, they are not able to reveal the depth of character. They give the feeling, but do not allow to understand life. Film is magic, spells which can turn a plain girl into a beauty, and a tent - Palace. For many people, the movie becomes a drug, a harmless cocaine. Other substitutes for psychotherapy. Nice, you know, to see your past or future such as we would like, including where you show yourself only with the best hand.

Many people, all life rushing to the top and finally achieved the desired, he celebrated his success by jumping out of the window of the top floor of a skyscraper.

When I hear about the success of someone you know, who came to him glory, usually there is a feeling that this glory appears out of nowhere, flashes like a supernova.

All the people suffered, was lonely and tried to find some way out. And anyway, it's not that big of a deal. Moreover, it is possible to say that all life is not such a big deal...

What was required in order to be a writer? No sensitivity to others ' pain. Not a subtle understanding of the world. Not a state of ecstasy. These words were intended for the uninitiated. The truth lies in the fact that the writer is the same "safecracker", which turns the disk to the safe and listens for clicks to find the right combination of numbers. After a couple years of effort, the door can open and you get published. But the trouble is that often the safe is empty.

All good things come to an end. I think it ends because we we want to. If we're good, we begin to seek adventure on his head.

This simple, but very nice kiss, it seemed that separated us from the cruelty and treachery of the world in which we happen to live.

I was too happy with Valerie. I had no idea how rarely that happens and how to appreciate such a gift.
