What is necessary is to reduce the matches and to clean up the gasoline.

Ray Winstone

On every job you do, you've got to raise your game. My ambition is to just get better and better every job you do - you should never stop trying to get better.

Olivia Thirlby

To be honest, I wasn't a sci-fi geek at all. But I do love a good sci-fi film, especially one that can really take you away.

Rick Wakeman
