I was falling for Elyssa and my track record with girls looked like a zombie apocalypse. - John Corwin The job of every generation is to discover the flaws of the one that came before it. That's part of growing up, figuring out all the ways your parents and their friends are broken. So pity the first people to reach puberty after a zombie apocalypse, who would have some truly heavy lifting in this department...You become whatever they fear the most. Now THAT'S evolution - Justine Larbalestier

I grew up with Apocalypse Now and Badlands, so I had a real awe thing going. - Gary Cole When I do a novel, I don't really use the script, I use the book; when I did Apocalypse Now, I used Heart of Darkness. Novels usually have so much rich material. - Francis Ford Coppola Dad almost died of a heart attack in the middle of making Apocalypse Now, the biggest movie of his life. It doesn't make you want to jump into that business. - Charlie Sheen Coming Home had been made before and Apocalypse Now and Deer Hunter, different kinds of movies. - Oliver Stone
