The Addicts and Alcoholics give straight, simple answers. We ask no questions. Unlike the Family Members, we already know the answers. We f**k up your lives. We ruin every single one of your days. We are your worst nightmare. You don't know what to do with us. You're at the end of your rope. You don't know what to do. You're at the end of your f**king rope. You don't know what to do.

You know there comes a point where we'll be in next year, it'll be too close to an election and this will once again just slip through our hands. I think we owe the American people some straight answers. We certainly owe the troops who are risking their lives every day straight answers.

[Steven Spielberg's films] are comforting, they always give you answers and I don't think they're very clever answers. (...) The success of most Hollywood films these days is down to fact that they're comforting. They tie things up in nice little bows and give you answers, even if the answers are stupid, you go home and you don't have to think about it. (...) The great filmmakers make you go home and think about it.

 

Terry Gilliam

 

Why give you answers you wont believe?
Well, answers I don't believe would be a step forward.

 

Orson Scott Card

 

Give it to me straight from the heart.
Tell me we can make one more start.
You know I'll never go - as long as I know
It's comin' straight from the heart.

 

Bryan Adams
