“People say things like, ‘The rule is that you never show the devil.’ But if you have a good-looking devil, and it looks convincing—well, yes, you show it! It’ll scare the shit out of the audience. If you have a stupid devil, then you don’t show it.”

– John Carpenter

 

“If fighting will clear us out of this trouble, I am willing to fight or do anything else… I will get all I can back alive, and the rest I will kill.”

– William Tillman

“There’s a big difference between having fear in you and being a coward. I can have fear in me, too, and that kind of fear is good. Then I’d go into the ring and because I had this fear I’d try to take the other guy out as quick as I could.”

– Sonny Liston

"The microphone is branded when it's handed to me,
I was planted on this planet and I plan to MC"

"Down With the King"
