The whole point of having great characters is the opportunity to explore them more deeply with time, re-interpreting them for each new age.
Speaking personally, I didn't think 40 would be a big issue, and I don't think I have issues about age, but there are naturally some big questions that come up at that point in your life.
The worst thing about me is my toes. I've thick joints from wearing pointe ballet shoes - I went to a dance school from the age of 11 and danced every day.
A few years ago, I got to a point where I realised that the only way you can tell someone's age is how they live their life. The candles on the cake mean absolutely nothing.
The various forms of intellectual activity which together make up the culture of an age, move for the most part from different starting-points, and by unconnected roads.
Testimony is the beginning of and a prerequisite to continuing conversion. Testimony is a point of departure; it is not an ultimate destination. Strong testimony is the foundation upon which conversion is established. Testimony alone is not and will ...
I live and work alone and travel light, relying largely on my memory and making a point of letting intuition guide my way.
All those who offer an opinion on any doubtful point should first clear their minds of every sentiment of dislike, friendship, anger or pity.
Art doesn't alter things. It points things out, but it doesn't alter them. It can't, no matter what a painter wants to do.
There would seem to be a limit, even for an art preoccupied with boundaries and transgressions, beyond which a work reaches its breaking point and becomes an actual failure, a mere experimentation.
So I like to try to go back and develop pure visual storytelling. Because to me, it's one of the most exciting aspects of making movies and almost a lost art at this point.
My errors will point to thinking men the various roads, and will teach them the great art of treading on the brink of the precipice without falling into it.
I want my art to make people look at the world in a new way. I mean, what's the point of the art of writing if it doesn't take you into the mysterious?
I sometimes am challenged to imagine where the timbre of art should be. Should it be about objects that point to this current moment, or how objects are related to ideas of this current moment?
As soon as they were spotted, one of the jerk’s buddies pointed at me and said, “Arrest her! She’s the one who killed Zak!”
Comedians love people to point and laugh at them, even if they are not funny, naturists don't, no matter how funny they are.
Oh, darling, you know we writers must occasionally stretch a point to heighten the dramatic situation.
I smile at you, hinting at the pleasures ahead, and silently point to the zip at the back of my dress…
No words. Just my finger pointing in silence. My finger silently saying, ’Unwrap me, darling.
There will always be road construction in life, and never a point when all the highways are fixed. Keep walking.
It is only in retrospect that the high points of our lives rise up, flaunting banners.
