Quotations regarding 'Silly'

The coolest thing about the series is that we stay very true to the books; it would be silly for us not to, because the books are exactly what the fans want to see. There's an action side to it, which I love, and there are werewolves now. There aren't just vampires. There's a wolf pack.

What can you conceive more silly and extravagant than to suppose a man racking his brains, and studying night and day how to fly?

That's why we have tryouts."
