The Image That EVERYONE Has Of A Chess Player Is Not Necessarily Positive. I Think It's Partly Due To Bobby Fischer - His Rise To Fame And Then His Descent Into Madness. That Left A Lot Of PEOPLE With NEGATIVE STEREOTYPES, Of Nerds Who Aren't INTERESTING.

By AUGUST 2008, We Had Left Voikovskaya And MOVED Into A Wooden Dacha In The Artists' Colony Of Sokol In North-west Moscow. The House Was A Haven Amid The Madness Of The City: LILY Of The Valley Grew Near Our Front Gate, Virginia Creeper Decked The GREEN Picket Fence.

When You THINK Of The 'Exorcist,' You Think Of LINDA Blair And Pea Soup And All This MADNESS, But Really If You Look At The First Half Of That Film, The Stuff Between Her And Ellen Burstyn Is So Naturalistic And So Real.

The Romantic Idea Of The Penniless Writer Is FALSE. It's Terrible. I HATED Being In Debt. I Hated The Anxiety Of Not Knowing Whether We COULD Pay Our Rent That MONTH. Thankfully, I Had A WIFE Who Was Very Supportive And Had Faith And Shared My Madness.

Mike Mignola's 'Hellboy' Was INFLUENCED By Lovecraft Big Time. He Wanted To Make His Monsters Lovecraftian. But I THINK MANY Other Films Have Been Influenced By Lovecraft - Like 'Alien,' Which Is Almost An Outer-space Version Of 'At The Mountains Of Madness.'

You Can Only Make The Work That You Have To Make. And I Am Old Enough Now To KNOW That I Can't START MAKING Shows That Are Going To Win AWARDS. That WAY Madness Lies.

Pippin Chooses Love And Finds A Greater Sense Of Himself At The End Of All The MADNESS. I RELATE To Him In Many WAYS. I Have Been Through STUFF, Thought I Knew Best, And Often Been Proven Wrong.

We Lock Ourselves AWAY And We Concentrate On What We're Doing And TRY Not To Think About The MADNESS That's Surrounding It, And All The Hype.

I Am Not A Country GIRL At All. I Tried The WHOLE Country Dream And It Didn't Work For Me. I Need The MADNESS And Pandemonium Of A CITY AROUND Me.
