A Quote by Gabriel Byrne

I would like to break out of this "dark, brooding" image, cause I'm actually not like that at all. In Ireland, brooding is a term we use for hens. A brooding hen is supposed to lay eggs. Everytime somebody says "He's dark and brooding" I think: "He's about to lay an egg".

Frank Herbert

If we're not careful, this archetype of the dark, brooding, broken antihero gets held up on a pedestal for the wrong reasons.
