The blacklist was a time of evil...no one on either side who survived it came through untouched by evil...[Looking] back on this time...it will do no good to search for villains or heroes or saints or devils because there were none; there were only victims.
Dalton TrumboAn animal can learn to fight, but to sing beautiful things and make people believe them.
Dalton TrumboIt will come with a rush and a roar and a shudder. It will come howling and laughing and shrieking and moaning. It will come so fast you canโt help yourself you will stretch out your arms to embrace it. You will feel it before it comes and you will tense yourself for acceptance and the earth which is your eternal bed will tremble at the moment of your union.
Dalton TrumboHickory dickory dock my daddyโs nuts from shell shock. Humpty dumpty thought he was wise till gas came along and burned out his eyes. A dillar a dollar a ten o clock scholar blow off his legs and then watch him holler. Rockaby baby in the tree top donโt stop a bomb or youโll probably flop. Now I lay me down to sleep my bombproof cellars good and deep but if Iโm killed before I wake remember god its for your sake amen.
