Jerome: If at first you don't succeed... try, try again.
I think that the process of trying to become somebody else, and obviously the director/actor relationship in trying to do that, is such a weird, undefinable thing.
Technology breeds crime and we are constantly trying to develop technology to stay one step ahead of the person trying to use it negatively.
Try not to become a person of success, but rather try to become a person of value.
Trying to define yourself is like trying to bite your own teeth.
Don't try to get blood from a locust; God didn't put it in there.
Don't try to make predictions -- especially those concerning the future.

There's an innocent displacement, a dreaming, and idols are perfect for a little girl's dreaming. They aren't real. They aren't the gas station attendant trying to lure you into the back of the service station, a paperboy trying to lure you into a to...
