"Bowman: In the Director's Cut, when [] DeMarco [played by Jason Issacs] is killed, she skewers his pistol through the trigger; the trigger guard. I had to take that out because the MPAA thought it was too early in the movie to see that. Kirigi (Will Yun Lee) could not cut McCabe (Colin Cunningham), the agent, couldn't cut his head off. Then there was Typhoid's death at the end, when [she] throws the sign through her head, I had to trim 3 frames off the head of that. That was so there wasn't such a visceral impact on it, and it just softens it. But you need a visceral release when she kills Typhoid, because Typhoid theoretically just killed Abbey. So, among other things, these frames are back in there."
"IGN: Jennifer obviously really loves the part. Did you get the feeling that the press gave her a hard time about it?"
"Q:Didn't Elektra die in Daredevil?"
"Elektra is one of the reasons I got into television. I spent a year writing the movie, and it was supposed to be this gigantic movie, and then they decide they’re not going to make an $80 million movie, they’re going to make a $30 million movie, they bring in a director we didn’t know, you get fired, someone else comes in and rewrites the entire movie, but you still get credit because you wrote the first draft. Then you go to the premiere in Las Vegas, and 30 seconds into the movie you’re like, ‘Oh, [expletive].'"
"I literally, to this day, am still so embarrassed by that movie. I probably shouldn’t say this, but I know Jennifer Garner is too. She hired us to write the movie, which was pitched as something much more smart and sophisticated … it’s a blemish."
"She's the last thing that stands between good and evil."
"Looks can kill."
"She was left for dead. Now she's back with vengeance."
"Born to fight. Trained to kill."
"Before she can find peace she will wage war."

Young though he was, his radiant energy produced such an impression of absolute reliability that Hedgewar made him the first sarkaryavah, or general secretary, of the RSS.
- Gopal Mukund Huddar
Largely because of the influence of communists in London, Huddar's conversion into an enthusiastic supporter of the fight against fascism was quick and smooth. The ease with which he crossed from one worldview to another betrays the fact that he had not properly understood the world he had grown in.
Huddar would have been 101 now had he been alive. But then centenaries are not celebrated only to register how old so and so would have been and when. They are usually celebrated to explore how much poorer our lives are without them. Maharashtrian public life is poorer without him. It is poorer for not having made the effort to recall an extraordinary life.
I regret I was not there to listen to Balaji Huddar's speech [...] No matter how many times you listen to him, his speeches are so delightful that you feel like listening to them again and again.
By the time he came out of Franco's prison, Huddar had relinquished many of his old ideas. He displayed a worldview completely different from that of the RSS, even though he continued to remain deferential to Hedgewar and maintained a personal relationship with him.
