A society made up of individuals who were all capable of original thought would probably be unendurable.
In externals we advance with lightening express speed, in modes of thought and sympathy we lumber on in stage-coach fashion.
I thought I would be a teacher; I think my eventual goal was to be the principal of my old high school.
The moment of drifting into thought has been so clipped by modern technology. Our lives are filled with distraction with smartphones and all the rest. People are so locked into not being present.
I love Bob Altman. I always admired him so much because I always thought he was a genuine voice.
My thoughts on gay marriage are that everyone has the right to love and be loved, and that's the position I take.
Most important thought, if you love someone, tell him or her, for you never know what tomorrow may have in store.
Let me say that I've never thought to conduct because the conductor has to think to the music before the orchestra. And the orchestra comes later. For me, it's terrible.
I had always thought that I would do something that was connected to music as a career, or possibly Chinese, which was my major.
I used to like the Jonas Brothers, but only because I thought that they were good-looking, not because I actually liked their music.
I thought I'd use music to confront the problems that I faced, and it helped. I found a more healing mindset, and it did rejuvenate me.
Inspiring music may fill the soul with heavenly thoughts, move one to righteous action, or speak peace to the soul.
I always thought martial arts was the most modern choreography we could have right now, and I always wanted to put it to music.
I guess now music is so saturated and so microwaved. It's, like, 15 minutes in the microwave and boom, you've got something. Nobody's putting passion or any thought behind it anymore.
I had said to some pastor that I was having thoughts, and the church turned on me. They went to my mom and said, So sorry about your son.
For me, being tall was very positive because I thought my mom was the most beautiful person ever.
My mom took all of my behavior personally. Everything I did, she thought it was an act of rebellion against her. But it was just me being me.
When undertaking marriage, everyone must be the judge of his own thoughts, and take counsel from himself.
I didn't think marriage worked. I thought everybody who was married was secretly miserable - that it was something they just put up with for their children.
I miss the movies. Still, I understood that my kind of movie has had its day. I thought it was over for me.
That TV show, 'After Thought,' is really exciting. It's a cross between 'Inception' and 'CSI' that I'm working on with Melissa Rosenberg from the 'Twilight' movies.
