"I have never gone into a picture without first studying my characterization from all angles. I make a study of the fellow`s life and try to learn everything about him, including the conditions under which he came into this world, his parentage, his environment, his social status, and the things in which he is interested. Then I attempt to get his mental attitude as much as possible."
- William PowellI think the themes of belonging and parentage and love are obviously universal.
- Christopher EcclestonODORS ARE ALWAYS OF QUESTIONABLE PARENTAGE AND NEVER OF NOBLE BIRTH.
- Barnett KramerI do not believe that the accident of birth makes people sisters and brothers. It makes them siblings. Gives them mutuality of parentage. Sisterhood and brotherhood are conditions people have to work at. It`s a serious matter. You compromise, you give, you take, you stand firm, and you`re relentless...And it is an investment. Sisterhood means if you happen to be in Burma and I happen to be in San Diego and I`m married to someone who is very jealous and you`re married to somebody who is very possessive, if you call me in the middle of the night, I have to come.
