--

Emily Blunt

“Stories are a kind of thing, too. Stories and objects share something, a patina. I thought I had this clear, two years ago before I started, but I am no longer sure how this works. Perhaps a patina is a process of rubbing back so that the essential is revealed, the way that a striated stone tumbled in a river feels irreducible, the way that this netsuke of a fox has become little more than a memory of a nose and a tail. But it also seems additive, in the way that a piece of oak furniture gains over years and years of polishing, and the way the leaves of my medlar shine.”
“Have I ever told you, you look like Monty Clift? he inquired in a deep, seductive voice. Before or after the accident?”
“Knowledge of other people's beliefs and ways of thinking must be used to build bridges, not to create conflicts.”
“It's not like suddenly, when you become a working actor all your friends are in the same situation. I have friends who are still handing out flyers for their one-woman show and trying to make ends meet.”
“The bulk of the emails tend to come after a column. I can get about 2,000 after a column.”
“Unlike the majority of the writers of his age, La Rochefoucauld was an aristocrat; and this fact gives a peculiar tone to his work.”
