“You ever feel like home is the one place you can’t go back to? It’s like you promise yourself when you got out of bed and combed your hair that this evening, when I get back I’ll be a different woman in a new place. And now you can’t go back because the house expects something from you.”
― Marlon James, A Brief History of Seven Killings

“The nicest thing André ever said about me was ‘She’s Beauty and the Beast, I like the idea that nobody’s one or the other. You can be the regular girl and you can be the monster at the same time.

― Julianne Moore
