Most of my childhood revolved around wondering when we would be blown up by the Russians. I couldn't stand the news, I knew that if the missile were launched, mortality would arrive in half an hour, so I spent a lot of my childhood feeling that I was 30 minutes from being dead.

Der größte Teil meiner Kindheit drehte sich um die Frage, wann wir von den Russen gesprengt werden würden. Ich konnte die Nachrichten nicht ertragen, ich wusste, wenn die Rakete abgefeuert würde, würde die Sterblichkeit in einer halben Stunde eintreten, und ich verbrachte viel von meiner Kindheit mit dem Gefühl, dass ich 30 Minuten vor dem Tod war.

Grissom comes from a place where we know he had a deaf mother, he was raised in a silent household, on some level, had a father who potentially was not around and he learned what he knew by himself in the back yard, with bugs and animals.

The strongest thing that any human being has going is their own integrity and their own heart. As soon as you start veering away from that, the solidity that you need in order to be able to stand up for what you believe in and deliver what's really inside, it's just not going to be there.
