I am as frustrated with society as a pyromaniac in a petrified forest.

Nature is a petrified magic city.

A film is a petrified fountain of thought.

Four hours of prosthetics every morning the jowls and the nose and it was very hot so they're having to attend to it all day and you're still petrified of so many things such as can I speak properly? Hitchcock never quite lost those East End vowels even though he had the softened California consonants.

In spite of his practical ability some of his experience had petrified into maxims and quotations.
