“An anti-something movement displays a purely negative attitude. It has no chance whatever to succeed. Its passionate diatribes virtually advertise the program they attack. People must fight for something that they want to achieve, not simply reject an evil, however bad it may be.” PeopleWantMayFightingEvilChanceAttitudeAchieveMovementSucceedNegativeProgramPassionateRejectsDisplayNegative Attitude Book:Anti-Capitalistic Mentality, The Source: Anti-Capitalistic Mentality, The
“Among today's directors I'm of course impressed by Steven Spielberg and Scorsese, and Coppola, even if he seems to have ceased making films, and Steven Soderbergh - they all have something to say, they're passionate, they have an idealistic attitude to the filmmaking process. Soderbergh's Traffic is amazing. Another great couple of examples of the strength of American cinema is American Beauty and Magnolia.” IfsSeemsTodayFilmCoursesProcessAttitudeExampleCoupleDirectorsPassionateCinemaFilmmakingImpressedTrafficIdealisticScorseseMagnolias Author:Ingmar Bergman

“We as the band are passionate and energetic musicians. We have minimised the amount of self-criticism. Fear of death, total impatience and an unconcerned attitude to weary notions of good and bad is what's making us exceed speed limits. We're hijacking the holy inspiration from otherness, and we don't spoil it with personal aesthetic preferences. We are panthers and gazelles, not slugs and tortoises. Though it must be said that after turning forty I've started to resemble a sloth more and more.” InspirationAttitudeHolyMusicianPassionateSpeedFortyAestheticGood And BadFear Of DeathSpoilImpatienceEnergeticSloth Author:Jussi Lehtisalo
“I do worry that beginning cartoonists could feel somewhat strangled by the increasing critical seriousness comics has received of late and feel, like younger writers, that they have to have something to "say" before they set pen to paper. Many cartoonists feel even more passionate about this idea than I do, vehemently insisting that comics are inherently "non-art" and poop humor or whatever it is they think it is, but that attitude is a little like insisting that all modern writing should always take the form of The Canterbury Tales.” ThinkingWritingAttitudeWorryModernLike YouPassionatePensSeriousnessCartoonistCanterbury Tales Author:Chris Ware
