And understanding the material nature of not only man, but beasts and profit and all of those things that you fight for.

I'll seek out someone on the street or at the farmers' market and ask for something where I know they'll say no. No one likes rejection, but it's real. And I don't want to lose that feeling.

~Brie Larson
