One thing about a film production is that it must run efficiently; there is no room for dead wood. So somebody that hangs around by the coffee wagon won't get hired again, but somebody who is dedicated and works hard and really puts out will get noticed by the people that matter around there and will get asked to come back again. George A. Romero

I'm telling you, man, after I did 'Land of the Dead,' which Mark Canton produced, Universal picked it up, and I had to use stars. I didn't think I needed stars - Dennis Hopper was in it. I loved him.

The 'Dead' films allow me to talk about things that a drama, say, won't. 'Dawn Of The Dead,' which was set in a shopping mall, is on one level about consumerism; 'Land Of The Dead' is a response to Bush. George A. Romero

To me, the zombies have always just been zombies. They've always been a cigar. When I first made 'Night of the Living Dead,' it got analyzed and overanalyzed way out of proportion. The zombies were written about as if they represented Nixon's Silent Majority or whatever. But I never thought about it that way. George A. Romero

Me Thought Made First Whatever Living Analyzed Way Nixon Out Silent About Proportion Never Written Dead Majority Always Got Were Been Just Zombies Night

Final Out Dream About Net Knees Taking Heading Dead Ball Line Left Cup Did Hands Getting Stopping Against Then Used European Round Keeper Nearly

If a man has wealth, he has to make a choice, because there is the money heaping up. He can keep it together in a bunch, and then leave it for others to administer after he is dead. Or he can get it into action and have fun, while he is still alive. I prefer getting it into action and adapting it to human needs, and making the plan work. George Eastman

Work Needs Man Together Have Fun Money Wealth Action Adapting Others Alive Administer He Dead Make Because Making Still Leave Up Bunch Man Needs Get Getting Human After While Prefer Plan Then Choice Human Needs Fun Keep

I've seen elbows that broke eye sockets. I've seen a German goalkeeper just level a French guy. His teammates thought he was dead lying on the ground. This was in 1982 at my first World Cup. But a bite is outside any kind of contact collision: dirty foul play. A bite is a bite. George Vecsey

World Thought Seen First Teammates Lying Bite Broke Eye Kind Collision Guy Dirty Outside He Contact Dead French First World His Goalkeeper Cup German Any Just Elbows Ground Foul World Cup Play Level
