“The noise you hear after people see something you do - whether it's a TV show or a movie - that always makes you see that thing slightly differently. Without question. The ability of a television series to make adjustments is something you've got to take advantage of. And test-screening a movie can be helpful too. But the part that can be dangerous is when you take those notes as gospel, instead of taking them with a grain of salt. The key is to use the response as one of the tools in your box, as opposed to using it to determine what you do.” PeopleUseShowsAbilityDangerousTelevisionTvsKeysAdvantageToolsTestsSeriesNotesResponseDetermineBoxesNoiseHelpfulSaltGrainTv ShowsAdjustmentScreeningGrain Of Salt Author:J.

“We must bear in mind, then, that there is nothing more difficult and dangerous, or more doubtful of success, than an attempt to introduce a new order of things in any state. For the innovator has for enemies all those who derived advantages from the old order of things, whilst those who expect to be benefited by the new institutions will be but lukewarm defenders.” MindStatesOrderPoliticsDifficultEnemyEconomyDangerousBearsAdvantageInstitutionsLiberalismIntroducingDoubtfulDefendersInnovatorsLukewarm Author:Niccolo Machiavelli
“I have always preferred to liken the championship to a marathon. You have to know how to start the race, how to take the strain when problems come along and to make sure you don't give any potentially dangerous rivals an advantage. My policy is to ideally have five or six men around the age of 26, a couple of youngsters, a couple round the 28 mark and one or two in their 30s. But the nucleus of the team should be experienced and not too old.” KnowsMenGivingShouldTwoProblemAgeRaceKnow HowFiveTeamDangerousPolicyCoupleSixAdvantageMarkRoundsSoccerChampionshipStrainMarathonRivalsYoungstersX MenNucleus Author:Bob Paisley

“I grew up in northern Minnesota on 40 acres of wooded land 20 miles from the nearest town, and so the wilderness was home. It was not an unsafe place. I had that advantage. But there are so many representations of the wilderness being dangerous. You know, depictions of wild animals attacking people. It's like, "No, we kill those animals in far greater numbers than they kill us."” PeopleKnowsHomeAnimalNumbersGreaterLandDangerousGrewGrew UpAdvantageTownsMilesWildernessRepresentationAttackingAcresWild AnimalMinnesotaUnsafeDepiction Author:Cheryl Strayed
“I present the thing we're going to do as a simple starting point. They all know it's an art piece and that it's all going to be recorded. And I have never had an experience where one of these men tried to take advantage of the situation. If they were guilty of anything it was of being lonely. It was never that they were violent or dangerous.” IfsKnowsMenArtSimpleSituationPiecesDangerousAdvantageLonelyStartingViolentGuiltyStarting PointBeing Lonely Author:Laurel Nakadate
