“Is it true that you refused to beg for pardon? And that you were not caught,
but confessed to Zeus freely what you did?”

 “It is.”

 “Why?”
His eyes were steady on mine. 

“Perhaps you will tell me. Why would a
god do such a thing?”

 I had no answer. It seemed to me madness to invite divine punishment,
but I could not say that to him, not when I stood in his blood. 

“Not every god need be the same,” he said.

“He never failed to mention The Last Unicorn as one of his very favorite books, and as one of the movies he was most proud of having made. Indeed, he left me whopperjawed – as Mark Twain would have put it – when we were being interviewed together on Austrian television, and he announced, “Oh, yes, I simply couldn’t resist a chance to play King Haggard one more time, even in another language. After all –” and he looked straight into the camera – “it’s the closest they’ll ever let me get to playing King Lear.” The camera swung toward me to catch my stunned reaction, and Chris looked across the studio at me, and winked.
[…] On the last occasion, when I had called to wish him a happy 90th birthday, I remember him assuring me that “if, by the time you come to make your live-action version of your movie, I have passed on, do not let it concern you. I have risen from the dead several times. I know how it’s done.””

(via lastarpeggios)

1. CAN YOU IMAGINE CHRISTOPHER LEE SAYING THAT ABOUT YOU, and

2. how was he a real person???

So what I’m hearing is, if we make a live-action version of The Last Unicorn, Christopher Lee will rise from the dead. 

WHERE IS THE GOFUNDME AND HOW MUCH CAN I CONTRIBUTE?

WE’RE GONNA RAISE CHRISTOPHER LEE
