What better model of a synthesis than a nocturnal dream? Dreams simplify, don't they?

If the novelist shares his or her problems with the characters, he or she is able to study his personal unconscious.

Kafka truly illustrates the way the environment oppresses the individual. He shows how the unconscious controls our lives.

To err is human; to forgive, divine.

Another thing that freaks me out is time. Time is like a book. You have a beginning, a middle and an end. It's just a cycle.

When I do my makeup, it kind of helps me get into the character that I'm trying to portray.
