John Searles Zitate

People are often surprised that I am so upbeat. I'm always hearing, 'You're so light and funny, and your books are so dark and twisted.' There's a dichotomy. I like books that are dark and creepy. I don't control it - it's just what I gravitate toward.

Die Leute sind oft überrascht, dass ich so optimistisch bin. Ich höre immer: "Du bist so leicht und witzig und deine Bücher sind so dunkel und verdreht." Es gibt eine Dichotomie. Ich mag dunkle und gruselige Bücher. Ich kontrolliere es nicht - es ist genau das, worauf ich mich hingebe.

You don't get to cut that chain of evidence and start over. You're always going to be pursued by your data shadow, which is forming from thousands and thousands of little leaks and tributaries of information.

I think it seems to be when I'm trusted, and someone just lets me have free rein - 'Do what you want, man' - that kind of confidence that directors instil in me always gets my best stuff out.

My kids are always like, 'Why do people always want to take pictures with you?' and I'm like, 'Because I'm your Dada, and you're my daughter. That's why.' It's definitely mostly because of 'Game of Thrones.'
