A lot of people say video games can be stifling. Older people say, ‘We had to go outside, and we had to make up stories!’ For me, video games broadened my horizons. Playing ‘Golden Axe,’ I was those characters. I imagined myself being in that world, so honestly, it was a really good thing.

Mike Leach
Little Axe’s records are wracked with collective grief. Spectral harmonicas resemble howling wolves; echoes linger like wounds that will never heal; the voices of the living harmonise with the voices of the dead in songs thick with reproach, recrimination and the hunger for redemption.
Mark Fisher
Every linguistic sign is located on two axes: the axis of simultaneity and that of succession.

Louis MacNeice
Unless we’re talking about old-school, witchcraft-trial violence, can we please phase out the phrase ‘girl crush?’ While we’re at it, if we can axe ‘like, total girl crush’ unless Total Girl Crush is the name of a fizzy soft drink, in which case I’ll take two, thank you.

My favorite sequels are basically all Mike Myers films – ‘Wayne’s World 2,’ ‘Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me,’ ‘Shrek 2.’ Anything he does, it’s best the second time around. He needs to do ‘So I Married an Axe Murderer 2.’
Adam DeVine
As actors, we’re so used to the axe falling, and then we all go our separate ways. I can tell you, the feeling amongst the cast in ‘Nashville’ is, we don’t feel like we’re done. It feels like, in some way, we’re just hitting our stride.
Chris Carmack

I tend to see my characters from inside and outside at once; this is a technique I use to retain a slight distance. It means my characters can act in unexpected ways on two axes: physical and mental. It isn’t just, ‘I thought this and then I did this,’ which is the technique of the modern psychological novel.
Karan Mahajan

Tom Green

Rob Manuel
