So I'm over there in England, you know, trying to get news about the riots.. And all these Brit people are trying to sympathize with me.. 'Oh Bill, crime is horrible. Bill, if it's any consolation crime is horrible here, too.'.. Shutup. This is Hobbitown and I am Bilbo Hicks, Okay? This is a land of fairies and elves. You do not have crime like we have crime, but I appreciate you trying to be, you know, Diplomatic. You gotta see English crime. It's hilarious, you don't know if you're reading the front page or the comic section over there. I swear to God. I read an article front page of the paper one day, in England, 'Yesterday, some Hooligans knocked over a dustbin in Shafsbry.'.. Wooooo. 'The hooligans are loose! The hooligans are loose!.. What if they become roughians? I would hate to be a dustbin in Shafsbry tonight. (to the tune of Behind Blue Eyes by The Who) No one knows what it's like.. To be a dustbin.. In Shafsbry.. With hooligans..' What the HELL are you talkin' about? Hooligans? Roughians? Speak English! It's Crypt, Blood. I mean, I'm sure it's a serious thing, Hooligans, but it just sounds stupid, doesn't it? I picture a bunch of pale guys with pennyloafers and no socks. (to a tune) 'We're the hooligans!' (Sound of knocking dustbin over) 'Come here, you fuckers, come here.' 'Nope! Got-to catch us! If you corner me I might become a scalliwag!'.. It doesn't sound scary at all, does it? They have proper crime there. I'd love to put the hooligans up against the Bloods in LA.. That would be a short gang battle. (To a tune, again) 'We're the hooligans!' (sound of dustbin knocking over)-- (boom boom boom *gunshots*). '.. Huh? Hoola-somethin', I didn't catch it all. Mothafucka danced up to me and patted me on the head. Pale mothafucka, look at that thing.' It wouldn't be a long gang battle. I'm bettin' on the Bloods.

Well, I'd say that the minute sound came in, it was everybody talking their heads off and going for dialogue laughs. All your writers did the same thing. Once that started, it took years to ever get anybody even to touch that old type of material again

The 'morality of compromise' sounds contradictory. Compromise is usually a sign of weakness, or an admission of defeat. Strong men don't compromise, it is said, and principles should never be compromised.

The truly creative mind in any field is no more than this: A human creature born abnormally, inhumanly sensitive.<br/>To him..<br/>a touch is a blow,<br/>a sound is a noise,<br/>a misfortune is a tragedy,<br/>a joy is an ecstasy,<br/>a friend is a lover,<br/>a lover is a god,<br/>and failure is death.<br/>Add to this cruelly delicate organism the overpowering necessity to create, create, create - - - so that without the creating of music or poetry or books or buildings or something of meaning, his very breath is cut off from him. He must create, must pour out creation. By some strange, unknown, inward urgency he is not really alive unless he is creating.

Dying is not romantic, and death is not a game which will soon be over.. Death is not anything.. Death is not.. It's the absence of presence, nothing more.. The endless time of never coming back.. A gap you can't see, and when the wind blows through it, it makes not sound..

According to most studies, people's number one fear is public speaking. Number two is death. Death is number two. Does that sound right? This means to the average person, if you go to a funeral, you're better off in the casket than doing the eulogy.

When I sound the fairy call, gather here in silent meeiing,<br/>Chin to knee on the orchard wall, cooled with dew and cherries eating.<br/>Merry, merry, take a cherry, mine are sounder, mine are rounder,<br/>Mine are sweeter for the eater, when the dews fall, and you'll be fairies all.
