Mariah CareyIn Jack Dempsey's early days he had a fight contract, which paid him two dollars per fight for the fights he won. He received nothing for the fights he lost. Jack Dempsey said that in his early days he was knocked down a lot of times and he usually was tempted to stay down because he knew that no one would hit him again until he started to get up. But Jack was a hungry fighter and he knew that if he was going to eat, he must get up in order to get the two dollars.

Steven Moffat[ John F.Kennedy's friend] Chuck Spalding at the wedding said Jack was two guys: the groom and somebody else observing from a distance. ...

Nearly everything which we call life is just insomnia, an agony because we've lost the habit of falling asleep. We don't know how to let go. We're like a Jack-in-the-box perched on top of a spring and the more we struggle the harder it is to get back in the box.
Henry MillerAll of [motherhood] surprised me. It surprised me from the very first second I saw Jack. I'd believed that my pregnancy was a condition. It never computed. And there he was. Everyone made fun of me because I stared at him for months and months, not being able to believe he was real.

Steve GuttenbergA father's suspicion...' she began. Is as powerful as a mother's intuition.' ~pg 87, Ruana Singh and Jack Salmon
Alice SeboldIn terms of it being a first screenplay, literally, my hat is off to him [Wally Pfister]. I didn't see any virgin blather in screen direction, or anything like that.

Thatโs a pisser.โ He appeared disgusted with himself, then shrugged it off. โOh well. Catch you guys later.โ He strode out without a second glance.
Julie JamesJack didnโt fully get Jesus. Audrey tried to explain it, and he could repeat it back to her, word for word, but he still didnโt comprehend most of it.

At the end, he asked who was Jesusโ necromancer and if he was in the Bible, then Kaldar couldnโt stop laughing and had to sit down.
