When I write short fiction or novellas, I like to leave a hint of the fantastic, of the unreal. If you write a completely fantastic novel with ghosts and everything, the effect is less powerful than if you portray an absolutely realistic situation and, in the middle of this, you put a layer of fantasy, of mystery.
I know there are lots of positives in the evolution of technology, but I also think it will be responsible for the end of a unique character, of a specific kind of geographical culture. The world is getting so small, and mass production is getting so big. Everything is in danger of becoming the same.
My identity has everything to do with me and my instrument. It doesn't have to do with what production style I use, or how many people played on it, whether it's sparse or grandiose or whatever. And I'm social, frankly.
I have the greatest respect for Aborigine people, to whom I owe everything. The time I spent with members of the Pijantjatjara and Pintupi tribes in Australia was a transformative experience for me and one that has deeply and indelibly informed my entire life and art.
Well, I think everything I've ever read contributes to the background from which I write.
Women must pay for everything. They do get more glory than men for comparable feats, but, they also get more notoriety when they crash.
There must be a thread in everything I choose to take on, and I can't say it's a calculated thread, but I think you end up doing the work that's resonating with you.
The thing about film-making is I give it everything, that's why I work so hard. I always tell young actors to take charge. It's not that hard. Sign your own cheques, be responsible.
Flying through a hurricane is the most fearsome shaking you will ever get. Everything has to be tied down in the airplane. And the IMAX camera has to be rock-steady through all this. We had to design special mounts on the left and right sides of the cabin and in the cockpit to hold the cameras.
Everything is a learning process: any time you fall over, it's just teaching you to stand up the next time.
When people say, 'If I had my life over again I wouldn't do anything different,' well, I'd do everything differently just for the variety.

That's like - my thing is I'm always like, 'Oh, white men are ruining everything,' and Max's dad is like... don't say that in front of your son.
Now I've had everything except for the thrill of watching Babe Ruth play.
My sisters are my best friends and my most staunch supporters. They're always there to help me through every audition, through interviews, and through everything. Hopefully, I find some guy that I love as much as them some day. They are the best things in my life, and I would be completely lost without them.
I watched TV religiously when I was a kid, but nowadays - with the Internet - there's so many people writing about TV on the Internet, that everything's sort of under a magnifying glass.
In the Bhagavad Gita, there is no long discussion, nothing elaborate. The main reason for this is that everything stated in the Gita is meant to be tested in the life of every man; it is intended to be verified in practice.
With science it's very important not to go down the wrong path, but the wrong path in science is a path you go down where everything you learn is already known. So you need to steer around the obvious.
The world is being re-shaped by the convergence of social, mobile, cloud, big data, community and other powerful forces. The combination of these technologies unlocks an incredible opportunity to connect everything together in a new way and is dramatically transforming the way we live and work.

As a father, I do everything my dad didn't do. My son Beau's birth changed my life.
I tried college and I hated that. I seem to quit everything I do.
Lohan and I talk about just things that happen. It's Lindsay. She's great. I went from not knowing who she was to not being able to get rid of her because she's everywhere. She's on everything.
The ultimate search engine would basically understand everything in the world, and it would always give you the right thing. And we're a long, long ways from that.
Everything is changing in squash. Lots of television coverage and the game has become very professional.
I actually really like Christopher Walken. I find him a really interesting actor. He's such a character that I love everything he's in.
Everything has changed. The flying changed. The airports have changed.
In my third novel there is an actual black hole that swallows everything you love.
I continue to believe that the American people have a love-hate relationship with inflation. They hate inflation but love everything that causes it.

Fame is a lot of pressure, especially when you're responsible for your entire family. Financially, emotionally - everything.
I'm one of those people who really wants to do everything. And if I had enough time, I really would.
Everything's got a moral, if only you can find it.
Law is just one public institution, but it is a cornerstone of society. When law goes, everything goes.
