I definitely feel more complete than before. There's a void you have when you don't feel you've found the other part of who you are so I'm in a different place now and that's nice to experience.
Do I ever think Gossip will be really massive in America? No I don't think it'll happen - and that's fine. It's kind of nice because I get to experience everything at once. I get to come home and it not be weird like in Paris or something. It is nice to be completely anonymous.
Some writers can only deal with childhood experience because it's complete. For another kind of writer life goes on and he's able to keep processing that as well.
One nice thing about being a woman in Hollywood is that the women tend to be very close-knit. All of us writers and directors know each other and cling to each other for safety and support and it's really a completely different vibe than the men experience out here where they're all trying to murder each other.
I've always been attracted to cars and driving is a completely measurable experience: if you qualify last on the grid you're the slowest and if you qualify first on the grid you're the fastest. So no one can say you're slow if you're fast and no one can say you're fast if you're slow.
I can only speak from my own personal experience being behind the camera and in front of it but every magazine cover you see is completely airbrushed.
I loved the material when I first read it and the experience of making the film was a great one. So when we came around to complete the trilogy I just signed on board without even reading the scripts because the experience of the first film was so good.
Motherhood has completely changed me. It's just about like the most completely humbling experience that I've ever had. I think that it puts you in your place because it really forces you to address the issues that you claim to believe in and if you can't stand up to those principles when you're raising a child forget it.
Experience is never limited and it is never complete it is an immense sensibility a kind of huge spider-web of the finest silken threads suspended in the chamber of consciousness and catching every air-borne particle in its tissue.
Our DNA is as a consumer company - for that individual customer who's voting thumbs up or thumbs down. That's who we think about. And we think that our job is to take responsibility for the complete user experience. And if it's not up to par it's our fault plain and simply.
Man learns through experience and the spiritual path is full of different kinds of experiences. He will encounter many difficulties and obstacles and they are the very experiences he needs to encourage and complete the cleansing process.
It became clear to me in an instant that living a gay life without publicly acknowledging it is simply not enough to make any significant contribution to the immense work that lies ahead on the road to complete equality.
American society will never completely understand the true meaning of equality.
I believe there is complete equality between men and women. And I believe those passages in the New Testament not by Jesus but by Paul that say women should not adorn themselves they should always wear hats or color their hair in church - things like that - I think they are signs of the times and should not apply to modern-day life.
I am going to confront the old-fashioned negative thinking which says that all government needs to do to generate growth is cut worker and environmental protections cut taxes on the rich and stroke 'fat cats' until they purr with pleasure. I'm completely repudiating the idea that government has to get out of the way.
I stupidly ignored education completely. I found it dull and I preferred to cause chaos and have fun. I regret this massively now.
The parent knows instinctively that if they're working and setting an example for their child that means that child is more likely to be in school more likely to stay out of trouble and more likely to complete their education.
For this reason to study English literature without some general knowledge of the relation of the Bible to that literature would be to leave one's literary education very incomplete.
Realizing that the majority of kids that get molested feel that it is their fault along with shame those kids have no idea what to say or do to try to report anything and add that with the lack of education it is a complete recipe for disaster that leads to non-reporting of molestation.
If you have four years to complete your college education do it.
Our youth deserve the opportunity to complete their high school and college education free of early parenthood. Their future children deserve the opportunity to grow up in financially and emotionally stable homes. Our communities benefit from healthy productive well-prepared young people.
To throw obstacles in the way of a complete education is like putting out the eyes.
I had never done anything with blue screen before or prosthetics or anything like that. Lord of the Rings was like stepping into a videogame for me. It was another world completely. But to be honest I basically did it so that I could have the ears. I thought they would really work with my bare head.Working with Martin Scorsese was an absolute minute-by-minute education without him ever being grandiose about it.
It makes little difference how many university courses or degrees a person may own. If he cannot use words to move an idea from one point to another his education is incomplete.
