“I learned early Jack Kirby favorite movies were the Warner Brothers from the '30s. When you look at Jack Kirby's comic books, or at least when I do, I can make an instant connection.

“It's very rare that you get to play a character over the course of so many films. Bella meant a lot to me and she will always be such a formative event in my career. I grew up with her and she and I have been on this great journey together. I also see many parallels between her evolution and my own because I lived through so many things along the way while playing Bella and having this connection to so many people involved in making the films over the years. It would be impossible for me to separate my world from Bella's.” PeopleWorldWayYearsHas BeensPlayCharacterWould BeTogetherFilmCoursesMy OwnCareersImpossibleJourneyEventsGrewEvolutionInvolvedGrew UpConnectionsParallelsGreat JourneysJourney Together Author:Kristen Stewart
“One of the points where the art world is at its most metaphysical is in this weird aspect of the power of the expert. There are experts who claim they cannot be fooled because they have an inner connection to an artist and can feel whether something is genuine or fake. I've heard experts say, on panels: When it comes to my period, or my painters, I cannot be fooled. And of course that's completely ridiculous.” WorldFeelsArtArtistCoursesHeardPeriodsAspectConnectionsClaimsRidiculousGenuinePainterFakeExpertsMetaphysicalFooledArt World Author:Daniel Kehlmann
“I really like the Chris-R scene and of course the "you are tearing me apart Lisa" scene. The reason I love the Chris-R scene is because we worked really hard to finish it.

“It's very enigmatic because of course, the population [of North Korea] has no contact with the world outside or it's very, very limited. They don't have any telephone connections, no radio, no TV, no movies, no newspapers - nothing from the outside world. This is very strange and there's the very strict, unifying government that forces you to be in step. You see it in the stadium where the spectators create, by flipping cards, an image of the dear leader, or of the volcano, and it's made of a 100,000 human pictures.” WorldHumansMadeGovernmentCoursesForceLeaderStepsStrangeTvsConnectionsDearPopulationRadioNewspapersContactCardsStrictTelephonesSpectatorsKoreaNorth KoreaStadiumsOutside WorldVolcanoesUnifyingEnigmatic Author:Werner Herzog

“If we look at the last decades, we see that the US rightist-fundamentalist alliance demonized partnership-oriented families and painted women's rights as a threat to "tradition" - which of course it is to traditions of domination. These people had an integrated political agenda that recognizes that a "traditional" authoritarian, male dominated, punitive family is foundational to an authoritarian, male dominated, punitive politics. We can see this connection in sharp relief in brutal top-down regimes, be they secular like Nazi Germany or religious like ISIS in the Middle East.” PeopleIfsLooksLastsPoliticalCoursesReligiousRightsMiddleTraditionConnectionsThreatMalesEastDecadesTraditionalGermanyReliefAgendasRegimesMiddle EastPartnershipBrutalSecularWomens RightsNaziDominationIsisAlliancesIntegratedFundamentalistNazi GermanyTop DownPolitical Agendas Author:Riane Eisler

“Astrology furnishes a splendid proof of the contemptible subjectivity of men in consequence whereof they refer everything to themselves and from every idea at once go straight back to themselves.
