"In the movies..Everett Sloane was a tycoon. He would get his gun off disillusioning Joel McCrea, who wanted to publish a newspaper that would make a statement, and telling him: 'M'boy, you'll see when you get old that it's all a game.' And I used to think. 'No it's not that way, this cynical old bastard is bullshitting, there are the Good Guys and the Bad Guys, the liars and truth-tellers.' But Everett Sloane was right. There is only what is. The what-should-be never did exist, but people keep trying to live up to it. There is only what is."
