Haunted Quotes

For ‘Prometheus,’ I came back to a very simple question that haunted me that appears in the first ‘Alien,’ and no one answered in subsequent Alien films: who was the ‘Space Jockey’ - the big guy in the seat?

In all honesty, I didn’t love reading when I was a kid. I’d rather be running around in the woods or doing my best to scare the pants off all the children in the neighborhood by pretending my house was haunted or making them play Bloody Mary in the bathroom Picture Quote #1

Boo, Forever Spinning like a ghost on the bottom of a top, I’m haunted by all the space that I will live without you Picture Quote #1

But for me, it is when a student has died. I find the death of a young person the most difficult and painful of times. To explain it to other young people, to see a bright future snuffed out, is just awful. I am haunted by those deaths Picture Quote #1

My theory is that Kurt had a lot of residual pain from his childhood.

When you combine those two things, my impression of Kurt Vonnegut at 84 was that he was a very pained and haunted man Picture Quote #1

But the gray and the cold are haunted by a beauty akin to pain, by a sense of a something wanted that never will come again Picture Quote #1

The Haunted Man’ is about communication barriers between men and women, and in that song it’s a woman’s wait for her husband to come back from war. The vision for me was of a group of men and women on the opposite sides of two cliffs, trying to move or sing to each other and communicate, but they’re kind of misfiring Picture Quote #1

We write in ways that, we generally hope, reflect real life, or at least look familiar to humans. And in life, recurring themes are a recurring theme. We never quite conquer a pet vice or a relationship pattern or a communication habit. We’re haunted by our particular demons Picture Quote #1

The South is full of memories and ghosts of the past. For me, it is the most inspiring place to write, from William Faulkner’s haunted antebellum home to the banks of the Mississippi to the wind that whispers through the cotton fields Picture Quote #1

I glimpsed the contour of a wide river, its surface glittering white. Dead trees haunted its edges, their limbs stretching skywards, as if begging for forgiveness Picture Quote #1

I am haunted by what my life would have been had I not had the courage in my early twenties to leave Pittsburgh for New York City and really commit to being a writer. Pittsburgh is both post-industrial and provincial, and the opportunities there are limited. It would have been quite easy to simply drift through life Picture Quote #1

High school is a haunted house in April, when seniors act up because the end is near. Even those who hate school sometimes cling to the devil they know. And for the kids who love it, the goodbyes are hard to think about Picture Quote #1

Retirement wasn’t a reward at the end of a well-run career ... it was a void surrounded by endless dull hours, haunted by memories of work Picture Quote #1

You always take a little bit back with you at the end of the day. I always put a little bit of myself into the characters, too. You find parallels, points of connection, things like that. But I’m not an actor who gets so incredibly haunted by my characters that I can’t come back Picture Quote #1

I’ve always wanted to write about a haunted film, something imbued with a malign, potentially fatal attraction, an image which poisons everyone who’s unfortunate enough to view it Picture Quote #1
