fun feelings humans
Feeling - what authentic human fun!
people fake feelings
Whatever made me the way I am left me hollow, empty inside, unable to feel. It doesn't seem like a big deal. I'm quite sure most people fake an awful lot of everyday human contact. I just fake it all. I fake it very well, and the feelings are never there.
nice thinking feelings
I think that's nice, and if I could have feelings at all I would have them for Deb.
feelings concepts
Me, feeling. What a concept.
feelings
I did not like this feeling of having feelings.
basis civilised necessary pack society
Pretending is the basis of civilised society, and it is sometimes necessary for all of us. Without it we are nothing more than a pack of snarling dogs.
dexter family love
I wanted Dexter to have a family that could love him and understand him.
Dexter-Land is a dark and scary place, and I couldn't live there permanently. To be honest, I don't think I even want to visit.
cheapen good
'Dexter' has been very, very good to me. I would rather stop doing it than cheapen it.
comics creative felt home life marvel relevant wellspring
Marvel Comics has always been a place where I felt at home. It has been a very important part of my life and has always been a wellspring of creative and relevant ideas.
I was expecting someone dark to play 'Dexter' - someone like Johnny Depp.
basic carefully concept hide life monster pretend quietly
We all pretend, we all hide things, so why not take the concept to an extreme? That is the basic idea for the character of Dexter. Pretend to be human, while quietly and carefully living out the life of a monster on the side.
capital eliminate
I don't agree with capital punishment as it is now, because too often mistakes are made. But I think that if you eliminate the mistakes, then there are times when it is justified.
god hardly morning organized
I wish to God I was organized enough to tell you that, 'Yes, there will be 14 books, and this one will go here, and that one will go there'... but to be honest, I hardly know what I'm going to do when I get up in the morning.
