One of the rules of the road is that if you want to create the sense of silence, it frequently has more pungency if you include the tiniest of sounds. By manipulating what you hear and how you hear it and what other things you don't hear, you can not...
I think that the hardest thing you will ever come to understand is that you were not IN LOVE with the person that you spend years of your life with. You loved them, but you weren't in love with them... & then the strangest clarity comes when you meet...
I breathe you. I live you. I love you
If you do not love, you will not be alive; if you love effectively, you will be killed.
You finish a movie and you think, there, you've done it, really well, or best you can. But if you watch it, you see it was just bollocks.
You read a book from beginning to end. You run a business the opposite way. You start with the end, and then you do everything you must to reach it.
If you are a musician and you don't show any interest on the business level then you are actually vulnerable and people will rip you off. They will sweet talk you into anything.
When you are new to the business, you think if you give a really bad performance, that's one they will print. You will be judged. You just have to be brave.
Trouble is part of your life - if you don't share it, you don't give the person who loves you a chance to love you enough.
When you deal with change, you have a couple choices: you can lead it and make the rules, or you can be a fast follower, or you can be a slow follower.
Religions cannot change you. If you are angry, you will become an angry Muslim or Hindu. If you are righteous, you will become a righteous Christian or Jew.
If you are happy, you can give happiness. If you don't love yourself and if you are unhappy with yourself, you can't give anything else but that.
You don't have control of the car, but you can drive it. Life takes you where it wants you to go and where you need to go.
If you are doing stand-up comedy, you have to be confident in what you are doing. That doesn't mean just because you are confident you are funny.
You learn if you mind stay open. And once you can't learn no more, your mind must be closed. Life goes on and you keep growing, you know?
Everything goes by so fast that if you want to be a part of it, you need to go that fast. But because you go that fast, you don't lead the life you should lead.
Unless you paddle for the wave, you'll never know if you could catch it. But once you do... Ride it as long as you can. Love as long as you can.
My philosophy has always been, 'do what you love and the money will follow.'
Once you figure out who you are and what you love about yourself, I think it all kinda falls into place.
You have to stick to what you love and purse that at all costs. Don't choose money first; it won't make you happy.
I will love you when you are a still day. I will love you when you are a hurricane.
