When you've got a society that is diverse, what happens is for a time, the issue is integrating your minorities into that society.
The final frontier of the digital technology is integrating into your own brain.
Nothing is at last sacred but the integrity of your own mind.
The industry has to learn how to do CEO succession well. If your definition of success is Intel or Microsoft or HP or IBM, that's not a good track record, and yet they are the most successful ones.
If it's a cliche to say that intellectual curiosity keeps your mind sharp, your senses alert, and your capabilities cutting-edge, that's because it's true.
I personally think intellectual property is an oxymoron. Physical objects have a completely different natural economy than intellectual goods. It's a tricky thing to try to own something that remains in your possession even after you give it to many others.
Being at the top of your game intellectually, philosophically, politically, is not a forever thing.
The obsession required to see a feature through from concept to release is not a rational thing to do with your brief time on this planet. Nor is it something to which an intelligent person should aspire.
Many people say that recovery from an aneurysm is like having a layer of skin ripped off - your experience of life is more intense.
Van Gaal was always very intensive with his tactics. You had to work more with your head than your legs.
What is the quality of your intent?
I do think there must be some kind of interaction between your living life and the life that goes on from here.
Look, coaching is about human interaction and trying to know your players. Any coach would tell you that. I'm no different.
To drop into being means to recognize your interconnectedness with all life, and with being itself. Your very nature is being part of larger and larger spheres of wholeness.
The infinite vibratory levels, the dimensions of interconnectedness are without end. There is nothing independent. All beings and things are residents in your awareness.
I think real life reflects your movies. In your life, you pick stuff that influences what movie roles you wanna pick. I think if you've got an interesting life, you wanna do interesting movies about interesting things.
If your dream is to tell stories, interesting stories, play interesting people, that's the bottom line. The people that I play have to be extraordinary.
I would tell filmmakers: 'Don't just be seduced by the same old, same old. There are interesting things you can explore that may get your film out there to audiences better than the traditional distribution mechanisms.'
Don't let schooling interfere with your education.
It would be a great vacation to act in a movie if I weren't directing it. But to do it while you're directing interferes with your concentration, and I wouldn't do that again.
