Said on The Daily (NYT)

“I got into The Clash particularly around that age, 12 or 13. They were such a great band to help a kid question everything. I was a working-class kid who had no future apart from a dead-end job… and I left school at 16. But bands like The Clash showed you that there was another way. You didn't have to have a life that was dictated to you. You didn't have to work in a factory or an office that you didn't want to do. There was hope.” — Martin McDonagh, The Daily (NYT)

“When you get a play right, it's gone forever. It's beautiful in the moment… Weirdly, you put all your energy into those pieces of hopeful art and they're gone. And I think that's probably why I've stuck with films lately and why I'm probably happier artistically, is that they're there and I can see them.” — Martin McDonagh, The Daily (NYT)

“As long as you've created a permission structure to go after people that you disagree with based on your belief that their ideology is dangerous, then anybody can use that same template to go after a different group of people. So while this was used against the left, four years or five years from now, it could easily be used against the right.” — Janet Reitman, The Daily (NYT)

“A number of the activists were involved in an anarchist book group called the Emma Goldman Book Club, which was exactly what it sounds like. It was a book club. And yet, the government considered the Emma Goldman Book Club to be the recruiting ground for the Antifa cell.” — Janet Reitman, The Daily (NYT)

“This is not a country that will capitulate because of this bombing campaign. Yet, this is the only card that Russia has to play and wants to play… This doesn't mean that this is the end of Ukraine. We're not looking right now at the end of the war, but we're looking at a kind of weakening that is potentially irreversible.” — Constant Méheut, The Daily (NYT)

“At the beginning of the year, Ukraine was intercepting from 30 to 40% of the ballistic missiles. And that gave you a sense of safety. Not great, but safer than nothing. Now, Ukraine is intercepting about 10% at best. And some nights, they're not even intercepting any of them.” — Constant Méheut, The Daily (NYT)

“I mean, she's a genius at saying nothing. And you're left with this question: is she the most naive human being in the world or the most cynical? And my take coming out was there's nothing in between.” — Jason Zinoman, The Daily (NYT)

“Penn and Teller came along and they said, all magic is bunk. All magic is fake. That's how they start their show. And then they take you behind the scenes of how this trick is actually done, right? And then they… fool you. And it turns out that the authenticity is the misdirection. Exposing the fraud, exposing the fake, that's the trick.” — Jason Zinoman, The Daily (NYT)
