Even something that's L.A. based, the director might be in New York or they might be on location in Budapest. I think everyone's really accepting of the fact that people are all over the world all the time. In a funny way, you can be an actor now and live anywhere, so long as you have internet.”

“Our infant bodies don’t actually know that we are separate beings at all. An infant only exists in relationship. It is natural for infants to try to give the only thing they have—their own nervous systems—to try to balance and care for their parents. This longing for the other’s well-being can become an unconscious contract to always try to make things better for the people we love, no matter the cost to ourselves.

“Our infant muscles let go and mold to the shape of our mother's bodies when we are securely held.
Our bodies learn the meaning of the sensations of hunger and thirst from the interpersonal sweetness of our need being seen, met and satisfied by our mother as food is offered.
We take in her attentiveness along with the nourishment, and this shapes our openness to all kinds of nurturance throughout our lives.
Our hearts beat more slowly and our amygdalae calm when she is in a ventral state, her presence reassuring us of the possibility of safety in connection.”

“Our ingenuity in feeding ourselves is prodigious, but at various points our technologies come into conflict with nature's ways of doing things, as when we seek to maximize efficiency by planting crops or raising animals in vast mono-cultures. This is something nature never does, always and for good reasons practicing diversity instead. A great many of the health and environmental problems created by our food system owe to our attempts to oversimplify nature's complexities, at both the growing and the eating ends of our food chain.”

Objects and circumstances which remain absolutely constant relative to the observer, unchanged either by his own movement or by external events, are in general difficult and perhaps always impossible to perceive. What we perceive easily is difference and change and difference is a relationship.”
