“When fighting zombies, the only comfort one can have--if, indeed, it can be called a "comfort"--is knowing where the zombies are. "They are over there, and we are over here. When they come at us, we're going to shoot them down. That's how it's going to work. They're just zombies, and they're way over there. No way are we going to f*** this up." But when zombies then unexpectedly pop up behind you--Bam!--the whole battle plan's not so cut and dried, is it, Mr. Tough Guy?” IfsWayWholeGuyFightingBehindsKnowingCuttingPlansComfortBattleToughPopsGoing To WorkZombieBehind YouTough Guy Author:Scott Kenemore

“Consider any individual at any period of his life, and you will always find him preoccupied with fresh plans to increase his comfort.

“School is established, not in order that it should be convenient for the children to study, but that teachers should be able to teach in comfort. The children's conversations, motion, merriment are not convenient for the teacher, and so in the schools, which are built on the plan of prisons, are prohibited.” ShouldChildrenAbleSchoolOrderTeachStudyTeacherPlansComfortConversationBuiltPrisonConvenientMerriment Book:Tolstoy on Education Source: Tolstoy on Education
“Having been an actor, I always want to leave room for the actors to find their comfort zone, so I don't like to be too rigid in how I plan my shots. It's different if you have weeks to rehearse and you can rehearse on your sets or in your locations and you can plan that out with your actors, but in modern independent filmmaking, you don't really have that time. You have to have a certain level of improvisation.” IfsWantDifferentCertainActorsLevelsRoomsPlansWeekModernComfortShotsIndependentZoneFilmmakingLocationComfort ZoneImprovisationIndependent Filmmaking Author:Eric Balfour

“Fate rules. You follow the steps and you plan and you work. Then fate slips in laughing and makes fools of us. Sometimes we can trick it or out guess it but most often its already written. For some its written in blood. That doesn't mean we stop, but it does mean we can't comfort ourselves with blame. It's easier to take the blame than to admit there was nothing you could do to stop whatever happened.” MeanDoeSometimesStepsLaughingFatePlansWrittenHappenedBloodFoolEasierComfortBlameTricksSlips Author:Nora Roberts
