At least I had food on the table.
Garrett Hedlund

You should make something. You should bring something into the world that wasn't in the world before. It doesn't matter what it is. It doesn't matter if it's a table or a film or gardening-everyone should create. You should do something, then sit back and say, 'I did that.'
Ricky Gervais

Before, Matter, Film

Food, Lie, Perfect
