Seth Grahame-Smith

Science, Yourself, Tell

At the time of Woodstock, I was just 13, but I used to see these exotic hippy creatures and I did look on with envy. How could you not? In an ideal world, I would have loved to have been a hippy - but I might have been a bit strait-laced. It was my fantasy.
Imelda Staunton

Time, Envy, Used

Oh, I'm nerdy about science fiction and fantasy and graphic novels and reading, and I'm nerdy about board games. My favorite board game is a board game I'm working on right now. It's a game of Napoleonic era naval warfare, and it's going to be fun.
Billy Campbell

Science, Fun, Game

I think the fantasy of being a movie star is more powerful than the reality. So, for me, even if it's not a great film or a great play I'm doing, to know that you went for it.

Marisa Tomei

When you're 14, anything with a sword and a dragon is pretty cool. But when you're 21 and you've read 2,000 fantasy novels, you start to realize that some of those books, well, they weren't really good. OK, let's be honest. A lot of them were crap.
Patrick Rothfuss

Good, Cool, Pretty

Fantasy is my favorite genre for reading and writing. We have more options than anyone else, and the best props and special effects.

Go ahead.
Patrick Rothfuss

Best, Writing, Special

Patrick Rothfuss

Time, Good, School
