“The pale, cold light of the winter sunset did not beautify—it was like the light of truth itself. When the smoky clouds hung low in the west and the red sun went down behind them, leaving a pink flush on the snowy roofs and the blue drifts, then the wind sprang up afresh, with a kind of bitter song, as if it said: “This is reality, whether you like it or not. All those frivolities of summer, the light and shadow, the living mask of green that trembled over everything, they were lies, and this is what was underneath. This is the truth.” It was as if we were being punished for loving the loveliness of summer.”

- Willa Cather, My Antonia (via awritersruminations)

Richard Davalos, co-star in East of Eden:

“Jimmy didn’t know how to take hard criticism. He had no acting persona that could soak it up and deal with it and not let it get through to him too personally. It just bewildered him. Then he’d have to sort himself out, before he could sort out what was wrong in the acting. His acting style was dangerous, unpredictable. Just being in a scene with him could be an unnerving experience. He had that instinct to disturb. We were so into those roles, me and Jimmy. We became so much like the characters we were playing, it was frightening; working on that movie affected all of us in it because of the depths we reached in the characterization. In my case, it took me years to get over it.”
