T. E. Lawrence Zitate

The common base of all the Semitic creeds, winners or losers, was the ever present idea of world-worthlessness. Their profound reaction from matter led them to preach bareness, renunciation, poverty; and the atmosphere of this invention stifled the minds of the desert pitilessly.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Die gemeinsame Basis aller semitischen Glaubenssätze, Gewinner oder Verlierer, war die allgegenwärtige Idee der Weltwertlosigkeit. Ihre tiefgreifende Reaktion aus der Materie brachte sie dazu, Unfruchtbarkeit, Entsagung und Armut zu predigen; und die Atmosphäre dieser Erfindung erstickte erbarmungslos den Geist der Wüste.

Leaders thrive when they feel creatively empowered, when they trust the people around them, when their confidence is swelling. Leaders make mistakes when they lose that same confidence, when they're fretting about their power base, when they're reacting instead of acting.

The radical novelty of modern science lies precisely in the rejection of the belief... that the forces which move the stars and atoms are contingent upon the preferences of the human heart.

I think generally playing live is a crap idea. So much of stage work is the presentation of personality, and I've never been interested in that.

My so-called 'reservations' and personal comfort zones can't define my work. That's not being professional. I feel that even if an actor is cast for the lead role or for any other part in the film, it is his job to do the film and not create an issue.

It seemed that rebellion must have an unassailable base, something guarded not merely from attack, but from the fear of it: such a base as we had in the Red Sea Parts, the desert, or in the minds of the men we converted to our creed.
