I wouldn't mind doing more in the kid's world because I think that might be just where I can be most useful to society, to the planet, if I can speak to children.
It's a great day! And if you don't think it's a great day, just try missing one.
I wouldn't say 'most' people are prone to negativity. I think it's probably that most people allow negativity to color their thinking, depending on circumstances, but I also believe most people make the necessary efforts to return to positive thinking as quickly as possible.
If we do not feel grateful for what we already have, what makes us think we'd be happy with more.
Your thinking today determines your performance today.
You cannot go higher than you think you can.
When you meet silent and inscrutable people, don't tell them what you are thinking. When you meet irritable and self-serving people, be careful what you say.
When I watch a movie for the first few times I'm usually thinking about where I was in a given scene, who was next to me, what we were doing etc. But after I've gotten through all of this, when I'm really watching the film itself, then I get moved.
I think the reason you see so many people dropping out of politics is because there's an anti-poetic strain in modern political discourse.
My current goal is to change the way we think about antitrust and anti-monopoly.
I think if NATO haven't expanded, we would have a no-man's zone between the E.U. and NATO and Russia, and that would be very dangerous.
I happen to think that as the Ukraine moves to the West, towards the E.U., eventually towards NATO, it will pave the way also for Russia moving towards the West. Because it will become a logical extension of the same process, and it will eliminate any imperial ambitions.
I think Facebook's dangerous. So many people I know get into trouble with Facebook... I'd rather just pick up the phone. Or Skype.
The senior members of the royal family work very hard and I don't think people quite realise that.
I've always been interested in combining architecture with a social agenda, and I really think you can invest and be inventive with hospitals and housing.
It's a feeling of happiness that knocks me clean out of adjectives. I think sometimes that the best reason for writing novels is to experience those four and a half hours after you write the final word.
I aim my movies, as much as I can, at myself. I think that those movies have an interesting quality. They're very movieish. They are movie movies. Like I think Watchmen is a very self-aware movie. 300. Dawn of the Dead definitely. That's really where I've ended up.
What resonates with people is that it feels like you actually are thinking of them.
If it happens that I score 50 goals, it'll be awesome. Any player in the league would like 50. But I don't keep thinking every day that I have to score in order to reach 50 goals .
Everyone has an idea that they think would be a great movie. Everyone has a cousin who they think you should work with.
Is 'Garden State' the next 'Citizen Kane'? Of course not. I'd like to think we aimed a little higher than that, frankly.
I think I suffer from some mild depression.
Prohibition didn't work, so why should emancipation work? I think we should just stick with a system that has proven to be effective.
I think if you're fame-hungry, go out to a nightclub and get drunk... why do that? I don't understand how some people would want fame so bad that they'd go out and get negative attention to earn it.
Honestly, if the worst these people can say about me is that I'm gay, then I think I'll be fine. I can handle it.
