Know your number. If you don__ know it you might forget who you are.
Shall I tell you what sociology teaches us about the human race? I__l give it to you in a nutshell. Show me a man or woman alone and I__l show you a saint. Give me two and they__l fall in love. Give me three and they__l invent the charming thing we call __ociety_. Give me four and they__l build a pyramid. Give me five and they__l make one an outcast. Give me six and they__l reinvent prejudice. Give me seven and in seven years they__l reinvent warfare. Man may have been made in the image of God, but human society was made in the image of His opposite number, and is always trying to get back home.

I'm sure that the book is incrediable, phenomenal and so on and so on going in positive direction... But the film wasn't made well (I'm talking about NeedFul Things by Stephen King), the effects weren't good, some scenes were missed, for example I'm very curiouis how does the guy kills his wife with the harmer...
