Brian Selznick quote #93 from The Invention of Hugo Cabret

The idea of going to the movies made Hugo remember something Father had once told him about going to the movies when he was just a boy when the movies were new. Hugos father had stepped into a dark room and on a white screen he had seen a rocket fly right into the eye of the man in the moon. Father said he had never experienced anything like it. It had been like seeing his dreams in the middle of the day.

Mark Rice quote #78 from Metallic Dreams

Things began to go wrong when I was seventeen. My bands twenty-year-old lead guitarist earned seven years in jail for a drug-fuelled spree of violence. The other band members were quick to let go of their musical dreams but I never did. They did the mature thing after writing off the band as a teenage fantasy they got real jobs and made some money. They called it growing up. I called it giving up.
