  • 3. Old age is a shipwreck.

2 Amazing

  • 1. I was writing a scene where a guy was choking another guy to death. You can go online and type 'chokeholds' and watch scenes where martial artists choke each other out.

  • 2. We have an amazing advantage right now in that we have developed technology that is so sexy so engaging for kids.

  • 3. The concept of two people living together for 25 years without a serious dispute suggests a lack of spirit only to be admired in sheep.
