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...
Life is like Tyra Bank’s left breast. It’s not right it’s not fair & still people loves it for what it is.
Even God forgives stupidity. So many married people, heaven would be a ghost town otherwise.
High Maintenance; I don’t like to live in place that snows a lot, albeit I’d love to visit one. I won’t marry a super model, albeit date one.
Death is one , torture is multiple.
Israel's willingness to cooperate closely with the U.S. in protecting American interests in the region altered her image in the eyes of many officials in Washington.
I would like Israel to be a Jewish state, and therefore not to annex over 2 million Palestinians who live in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip to Israel, which will make Israel a bi-national state.
The fundamental delusion of humanity is to suppose that I am here and you are out there. -Yasutani Roshi, Zen master (1885-1973)
In Australia, kids play in American accents.
Prison makes an interesting context for so many different characters to come together. You get to see what lines get drawn between people.
It's really interesting working in television as opposed to the theater, where you know the arc of the character and you are able to create this whole backstory.
All the jokes in my films, the comedy, they're not me, I just try to hold a big mirror up to us.
The American formula things are out there but they don't have any stories to tell - we have all the stories to tell - but they're all formula.
I kind of worry about that a little bit - we lost our film culture for 30 years because the Americans came in and bought up all the cinema chains and wouldn't show any Australian films.
I just wanted to do this all Australian film and we didn't want to give creative control to overseas 'cause whoever comes on my sets, whether you're sweeping the floor or an actor, it doesn't matter who comes up with the ideas, it's a collaboration.
We cheer everyone who goes off to Hollywood and tells American stories but telling Australian stories is the greatest thing you can do.
Can you imagine what it would be like if all the Aussie film talent was able to make Australian stories?
We've got so many stories to tell, you know, we could take on the world.
I support all Australian films.
Making your first feature film is actually impossible.
Find your own specific voice in filmmaking and go for it. Either people will get it or they won't and that's what it's all about.
