His quotes needed to be collected and shared; hence this blog.

The thing that she's having trouble with, it's almost like an archer like a Katniss Everdeen, with her bow and arrow, trying to shoot the arrow without pulling all the way back, and getting all of that tautness in the bow, and then just trying to, you know, shoot across the ocean or something.

Blogger's note: Katniss Everdeen is the main character in the Hunger Games books and movies.
