I liked that movie--maybe I shouldn't kill myself.

Mother TeresaIf the desire to kill and the opportunity to kill always came together, who would escape hanging?

It was terribly sad to think of all my wasted potential.
Jeff Lindsay. . . it is difficult for Europeans to appreciate the sentiment. Other nations kill animals by wholesale and kill one another; they exist in a sea of blood.

This reason was worthy of a savage nation who are not many steps from the brute.

Bipasha BasuI like torture. Torture is photogenic. If you make horror movies, you always have to think what's photogenic and what's not.

But if you watch Udo Kier in a horror film and people are hunting me and trying to kill me, and there's my love interest with big breasts and beautiful hair, and I believe in her and they kill me at the end, that's more interesting. We're talking about films here. We're not talking about writing stories.
Udo Kier
