Your mind creates your reality. If you expect nothing, you open up the universe to give you options. If you expect the worst, you usually get it.
I don't know why, but life is usually more complicated than the plans that we make.
I saw the first episode of "The Walking Dead," and that's all I've seen. I thought it was good. I used to love zombies when I was little, but I don't like them the way I used to. I'm not knocking the show.
It's been said that love finds you when you're ready.
Max, you're acting like a child, the Voice said. You're above rebelling against your fate just to rebel. You've got a date with destiny. Don't be late." I brushed some hair out of my eyes. Is that a movie quote? Or is it an actual date? I don't remember destiny asking me. I never even gave destiny my phone number.
For me, "Zoo" has always been a fable. It has nothing to do with realism. It's a fable about what man is doing to the world, and the animals have retribution. But in the real world, this would not happen. But in the world of 1984, this kind of thing can happen in a story.

I never miss a good chance to shut up
Dreams die hard. And sometimes they don't have to die at all.
When you go out to Hollywood, it's like, "Here's the book. It is what it is. It'll always stay the same."
maybe, beauty, true beauty, is so overwhelming, it goes straight to our hearts.maybe it makes us feel emotions that are locked away inside
What are we but our stories?
you...are...a...frige...with...wings...we...are...freaking...ballet...dancers!
My thing is when we're doing a movie or TV show, I just want to go in and look at it and go, "That was great."
