I think in art, but especially in films, people are trying to confirm their own existences.

People fear death even more than pain. It's strange that they fear death. Life hurts a lot more than death. At the point of death, the pain is over. Yeah, I guess it is a friend.

Death makes angels of us all and gives us wings where we had shoulders smooth as ravens claws.

The appeal of cinema lies in the fear of death.

We fear violence less than our own feelings. Personal, private, solitary pain is more terrifying than what anyone else can inflict.
