Quotes

 * I don’t think I've ever made up anything, everything has happened. Nothing's made up. You don't have to make anything up in this world.
 * Some days you go to your office and you're the only one who shows up, none of the characters show up, and you sit there by yourself, feeling like an idiot. And some days everybody shows up ready to work. You have to show up at your office every day. If an idea comes by, you want to be there to get it in.
 * Hannibal Lecter’s Creator Cooks Up Something New (No Fava Beans or Chianti) (May 18, 2019)

The Silence of the Lambs (1988)

 * "You may have noticed that in most crucifixions the hands point to, say, a quarter to three, or ten till two at the earliest, while the feet are at six. On this watch face, Jesus is on the cross, as you see there, and the arms revolve to indicate the time". (Ch. 25)
