“It wasnâ€™t like in the storybooks. No witches lurked at crossroads disguised as crones, waiting to reward travelers who shared their bread. Genies didnâ€™t burst from lamps, and talking fish didnâ€™t bargain for their lives. In all the world, there was only one place humans could get wishes: Brimstoneâ€™s shop. And there was only one currency he accepted. It wasnâ€™t gold, or riddles, or kindness, or any other fairy-tale nonsense, and no, it wasnâ€™t souls, either. It was weirder than any of that. It was teeth.”

“I think the success of a film is very important to an actor. It depends on how many people go to watch your movies; the more the merrier. Nobody wants to do a film for five people. You work so hard that millions of people watch the movie; this is directly related to box office success.”
