“I don't think of my plays as steamy places where people display huge amounts of emotions. The feeling is underneath, which in my experience is where most feeling is. I don't myself spend my life shouting in rooms, and I don't really believe things in which people do spend their time in total hysteria.” PeopleThinkingBelievePlayFeelingsRoomsEmotionHugeAmountDisplayShoutingHysteria Author:David Hare

“There's not a lot of room for un-ironic emotion in contemporary culture. I think that irony is an important tool in dealing with the world as we find it. It's a tool of protection, but it can also be a tool of incision to get to some truth. But along the way maybe we've lost some of what I think of as the power of straightforward emotion and earnestness and seriousness.” ThinkingWorldWayImportantCultureLostRoomsEmotionToolsProtectionContemporaryIronyIronicSeriousnessStraightforwardEarnestness Author:John Green
“Being singer is different than being an actor, where you call up sources from your own experience that you can apply to whatever Shakespeare drama you're in. But an actor is pretending to be somebody, a singer isn't. And that's the difference. Singers today have to sing songs where there's very little emotion involved. That and the fact that they have to sing hit records from years gone by doesn't leave a lot of room for any kind of intelligent creativity.” YearsKindLittlesDifferentFactsTodaySongActorsDifferencesRoomsEmotionCreativityGoneRecordsSourceInvolvedDramaIntelligentSingersPretendingYears Gone By Author:Bob Dylan
“If you are referring to the characters of The Room, each character has a different personality which you can see very clearly on the screen.

“I think minimalism is something I just got attracted to just in general because I like the empty space, if you think about it, like there's a lot of empty space. So there are sounds there, there are chords, like coordinates, to sort of tell you where the emotion is going, but then it leaves so much room for the voice to do other things.” IfsThinkingSoundVoiceSpaceRoomsEmotionEmptyChordsMinimalismEmpty SpaceCoordinates Author:Pharrell Williams
“It's an ongoing process, in the script, on the set and in the editing room, to make sure you are being true to the emotion of the film without turning it into a melodrama, and making sure you're getting all the laughs you can without it turning into just some stupid comedy.” FilmProcessRoomsEmotionLaughingComedyStupidScriptsBeing TrueEditingOngoingMelodrama Author:Jon Turteltaub
“I don't think it's good when entertainment tries to proselytize and I don't think people ultimately want someone showing up in their living room and just hectoring at them all day long. But if you can create a space where people are caught up in something - whether it's a drama, a comedy, a romantic comedy, or science fiction - that's when people give over their minds and allow their emotions to flow.” PeopleIfsThinkingWantGivingTryingMindLongSpaceRoomsEmotionFictionComedyDramaFlowScience FictionCaughtEntertainmentCaught UpLiving RoomShowing Up Author:John Ridley
“My favorite thing to do is action-driven, emotionally-charged scenes. If it's not just two people talking in a room, but it's on the move and things are happening and it's chaotic, and emotion comes from the characters and from the action, and the fall-out ultimately changes the character relationships, that exactly the kind of stuff I like writing.” PeopleIfsWritingKindTwoCharacterActionMovingFallStuffRoomsEmotionTalkingSceneHappeningsMy FavoriteDrivenThings To DoChaoticFavorites ThingsPeople TalkingStuff I Like Author:Geoff Johns
“I was always shy. Writing was my only outlet. Because I always hid in a room, I spent a lot of time watching people. When I was a small child I could detect hidden body language in others only I could see. People's emotions rub off on me. When I told this to my therapist she said, "Well, you're an empath." I thought, "No way. Like Star Trek?" And she clarified: because I am so socially uncomfortable, I have compassion for others who I recognize are also struggling.
