Tatiana MaslanyIt is a sin to follow your horoscope because only God knows the future and He won't tell us.

They don't exist anymore.

Alice EnglertIt's funny. I'm attracted to things that don't have any impact on life. People say I've done a great thing for women. I don't think I have. People say I've given people courage.

How can I expect to do well in other activities if I don't feel good about myself?

But that was the stuff I was attracted to.
David PajoDon't wish it was easier, wish you were better. Don't wish for less problems, wish for more skills. Don't wish for less challenges, wish for more wisdom.

Chris RockIt wasn't the intention to do something important, or to even relate about social issues. The ground is so fertile in the justice world, dealing with the death penalty and the Innocence Project, for characters that have a moral ambiguity, which we were both attracted to. It's the idea that everybody has their reasons. Whatever their actions are, whether you agree with them or not, you can understand why they're feeling that way, in terms of racism or even the death penalty.
