But I've been at writing long enough now to know that every three or four books I have to start a new direction.
I have a sort of long-term plan to direct. I'm pragmatic about it. I realize I don't need to rush it or force it.
the wind is scary.. during a tornado or in life in general.. never know when a gust is going to come in your direction and change everything
When you direct a movie, you're basically looking at a story, the way you want to look at it. You bring that director's vision, and I'm totally open for that.
Those who cannot remember the past are condemned, it seems, to direct the Middle East policy of the Obama administration.
I wrote five issues of that and got the sack. Actually, they paid me for eight, but they changed their minds about the direction and threw three issues out the window.
People come out of the mid-west and go to the Ivy League. I kind of reversed the direction.
As the global expansion of Indian and Chinese restaurants suggests, xenophobia is directed against foreign people, not foreign cultural imports.
A great mentor is full of understanding, trust, respect and willing to help his/her mentees to reach the right direction in life.
The thing about Brando was that I'd make these directions, and he'd walk away. He'd heard enough... to get the machine going.
I don't act, anyway. The stuff is all injected as we go along. My pictures are made without script or written directions of any kind.
Directing is so interesting. You know, it just sort of encompasses everything that you see, that you know, that you've felt, that you have observed.
No one could understand the bond between me and my brother. I struggled to understand the forces that drove his soul in one direction and mine in another.
I truly, truly believe that I was going in that direction and all of a sudden fate took me and put me here. It's like something else has other plans for me.
And you know, I'm so used to going 100 miles an hour in every direction and sleeping you know, two, three hours a night, and that's the way I live.
I'm a conservative, and I'm a compassionate conservative. And I think it's important that Florida continues to move in that direction.
Welfare reforms and the whole “happy” exploitation movement are not “baby steps.” They are big steps–in a seriously backward direction.
I've been competitive since day one. Even in little things as a child, like having a twin and a direct competitor for who makes better cookies.
I directed an episode of Touched by an Angel a couple of months ago, and I will be doing more of that. I just like to keep a bit of variety going; it keeps things interesting.
I have yet to find a man worth his salt in any direction who did not think of himself first and foremost.
I think that my main criticism in that book was directed at the general assumption that adaptation characterizes populations and species, rather than simply the individuals in the populations and species.
