M.L. Rio
We’re only ever playing fifty percent of a character. The rest is us, and we’re afraid to show people who we really are. We’re afraid of looking foolish if we reveal the full force of our emotions.
M.L. Rio, If We Were Villains

Al Pacino
I always tell the truth. Even when I lie.
Al Pacino
