Savor the now, secure the next.

This is the simplest rule for greatness and comfort: Do your best and pray for the rest.

Let's begin today, and say this everyday.

The greatest self help is to seek help from the Greatest.

Addiction is good if you are addicted to what is good.

Life is a drama - you need a role to play and a foe to slay.

SWITCH FOR a Bigger Self. You may have that childhood dream of living in an isolate paradise where everything is abundant & comfortable. But it does not help you grow. You need to envision yourself as being capable of taking risks, solving problems & dealing well with even the most unlikable persons you could imagine.

SWITCH OFF Biased Thinking Over-optimism & over-pessimism won't serve you the best. Just balance both. Be optimistic to have the energy to continue your journey, & be pessimistic to avoid possible downfalls.

SWITCH TO B.O.L.D Goals. Don't stick too much to S.M.A.R.T goals because it ignores changes, insults your potential, and kills your passion & creativity. Instead, aim for B.O.L.D (Big, Optimistic, Liberating, Dramatic) goals.

SWITCH FROM the Busy Life. Stop acting like everybody's hero. It will just waste your precious time & energy and make them irresponsible. Instead, just follow your Path and do only the tasks w/c you can do best and w/c can make the most impact to yourself & to the world.

SWITCH ON Bullet-speed Learning & Acting! Learn from a lot of people who have already reached where you want to be right now - from their own stories of struggles, mistakes & failures. Having learned, immediately ACT! It's the non-negotiable ingredient to self-growth.

Music, in Mexico, just wasn't working out. So, I fell into acting and I just fell in love with it. It was amazing! It was a great safe place to just vent.

Punk rock has never really had much patience with musical virtuosity. Actually, it'd be more accurate to say that for most of its history, punk has been actively hostile to virtuosity.

A carefree letting go of oneself not a caution but a wise blindness.

CONSOLATION n. The knowledge that a better man is more unfortunate than yourself.

Any people has a right to self-determination, and now in Europe the process of diluting national sovereignty in the framework of a united Europe is more accepted.

I spent six years touring the world playing Shakespeare, Molire, Shaw, Goldsmith... But I slowly came to realise that the people you are working with are as important as the parts you play, and that there were lots of interesting people working in film and T.V.

My uncle was in a ska band called the Top Cats; that was my first proper influence, as I was taken to see them every week. It sort of built up, the want to replicate it creatively.

I think with any movie, the more you know, it loses some of its power.

I always find the first thing that really bothers me when I start a screenplay is, I have to find a different form. You can't follow the form of the novel. It's a different thing completely. It's impossible. You just somehow have to find a structure for the whole thing. You have to crack that.

I MISTRUST THE JUDGMENT OF EVERY MAN IN A CASE IN WHICH HIS OWN WISHES ARE CONCERNED.

The biggest adventure you can take is to live the life of your dreams.

The attitude is very important. Because, your behavior radiates how you feel.

If you were out of a job and your kid needed diapers and your husband just left you, you would be so confused.

Feeling fat lasts nine months but the joy of becoming a mom lasts forever.

Dont approach a goat from the front a horse from the back or a fool from any side.

I write as if I were drunk. It is a process of intuition rather than placing myself above my story like a puppeteer pulling strings. For me, it's a scary, chaotic process over which I have little control. Words demand other words, characters resist me.

I think I represent a more left-wing view of what jazz is.

The Golden Rule finds no limit of application in business.

I am very precise about what food I like. I'm very much a nursery-food person, and really hate chichi dishes.

'War Horse' was all flat caps and thick trousers.

The idea of peer critique, of talking about each other's art - I just found it so useless.

When I see a film I've finished, it's like another person made it. Like another mind.

We could go work on curing cancer. We could go work on building spaceships. We could go work on art projects. What's fun about working at Asana is we get to work on all of them at the same time.

You see a child play, and it is so close to seeing an artist paint, for in play a child says things without uttering a word. You can see how he solves his problems. You can also see what's wrong. Young children, especially, have enormous creativity, and whatever's in them rises to the surface in free play.
