Shock Value Quotes

“[Wes] Craven rejected the ideas of his childhood, but he was still searching for something to replace them with, leading to confusion and dark spells. 'I had to much rage as a result of years of being made to be a good boy,' he says. 'I think when you're raised to be within such rigid confines of thought and conduct, what that does to a person is you think you are terrible if you violate the rules. It makes you crazy. Or it makes you angry.”
