We live in a time where there’s an alienation factor. There’s a certain disconnection.
ALAN BALLWe live in a time where there’s an alienation factor. There’s a certain disconnection.
ALAN BALLI would be so bored if that was the case. There would be no journey. There would be nothing to discover.
ALAN BALLI’m not like J.K. Rowling, where I know there’s going to be this number of seasons, and I know exactly what’s going to happen.
ALAN BALLIn my own life, I think legends of supernatural, mythic things are really just a manifestation of the collective unconscious. So I don’t really get freaked out.
ALAN BALLThat’s the day I realized that there was this entire life behind things, and this incredibly benevolent force that wanted me to know there was no reason to be afraid, ever.
ALAN BALLI felt pride, wonderful pride, when I was captain. It was an honour to take over from Labby. Anybody who has ever captained a big club, which Everton are, will tell you it’s a great honour.

ALAN BALLWe don’t have any real sense of community anymore.
ALAN BALLSometimes there’s so much beauty in the world, I feel like I can’t take it, and my heart is going to cave in.

ALAN BALLI would say try to tell stories that you care about as opposed to stories that you think will sell.
ALAN BALLSometimes I feel like I’m seeing it all at once and it’s too much. My heart fills up like a balloon that’s about to burst.
ALAN BALLThere are times when I am directing, and there are a couple of moments I didn’t get the way I wanted, but I know I still have other angles to shoot and I have to be done by noon; I move on.
ALAN BALLIt’s easy to look at the vampires as a metaphor for any feared or misunderstood group.
