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.

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

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.

In the future, my communications with the public and with the markets will be entirely through regular and formal channels.

The major international appeal for 'House of Cards' was kind of a surprise because it's a very American show. What we learned is that American politics is very American, but greed and corruption and all of that is very global.

A crust eaten in peace is better than a banquet partaken in anxiety.

In Mexico, wealth and poverty live next to each other and are cordial with each other - in my experience.

You don't break ground by doing the same thing over and over and over. That's like standing in place. You have to risk to gain it all.

Photography forces one out into the world, interacting with people and the environment. It flexes all those right brain, spatially-adept muscles.

The real danger with debt is what happens if lots of people decide, or are forced, to pay it off at the same time.

I'm a stand-up comic. I'm always doing dates; it's just that, if I'm working on a project or I'm busy, I can't get out on the road or book any shows. Since the beginning of my career, I'm usually out for at least 10-15 dates throughout the year. If I have time, then I try to get at least 30-40 dates.

I always have to have mascara; otherwise, I feel like I don't look awake enough. It's like, 'I have eyes now!'

As to the Indians, the guiding principle was, promise them anything just so long as they get out of the way.

If there is any one truth from the legacy of the Cayce readings, it would be that there is a spiritual dimension to humans, something beyond time and space.

The idea for any film is always going to be surprising or unusual.

Running at night used to frighten me. Part of it was simply safety, the question of whether level ground would truly appear under each tentative footstep, and whether the temporary but complete blindness suffered while running toward headlights was, in fact, concealing death.

Mothers really were not built to raise babies not only by themselves, but with only a partner. For millions of years, a woman had much more than just her husband to help rear her young... This whole idea of 'it takes a village to raise a child' is exactly how we're supposed to live.

I'm self-entertaining. My dialogue is with myself.

We can love an honest rogue, but what is more offensive than a false saint?

I love doing horror with comedy twists and I think it's a really fun genre.

The young comedians always ask me, 'What's the secret for staying around?' I tell them, 'There is no secret - just stay around. Longevity is the most important thing.'

My personal philosophy is I'm running a 100-yard dash, and I haven't reached the end.

I turned down 'Some Like It Hot.' See how smart I am? I felt I couldn't bring anything funny to it. The outfit was funny. I don't need to compete with the wardrobe.

Not much was really invented during the Renaissance, if you don't count modern civilization.

The lanes and streets of the city being set out, the choice of sites for the convenience and use of the state remains to be decided on; for sacred edifices, for the forum, and for other public buildings.

I was mad about the theatre growing up, really mad. We had a local theatre, the Torch, and I used to usher there. I would see the shows over and over again.
