&ldquo;Never stop. Never stop fighting. Never stop dreaming. And don&rsquo;t be afraid of wearing your heart on your sleeve - in declaring the films that you love, the films that you want to make, the life that you&rsquo;ve had, and the lives you can help reflect in cinema. For myself, for a long time&hellip; maybe I felt inauthentic or something, I felt like my voice wasn&rsquo;t worth hearing, and I think everyone&rsquo;s voice is worth hearing. So if you&rsquo;ve got something to say, say it from the rooftops.&rdquo; - Tom Hiddleston

Blasphemy? Before what God? A God repulsed by the miserable humanity he created in his own image? I will not be shackled by the failures of your God. The only blasphemy is to wallow in insignificance. I have taken refuse of your God's failures and I have triumphed! There! There is my creation! <br /> -Herbert West, Bride of Reanimator (1990)
