“Making this movie as a period piece about a period that was very recent in people's minds. I was in Taiwan [during the 1970s], so I hope I did all right. Otherwise, it could be the biggest embarrassment of my life. Also, the story is not linear, it's patchy, like a cubist painting, and there is always the possibility it will not hold together, it will fall apart. The tone is part satire, part serious drama, part tragedy, all mixed together, and it has to hit an emotional core. That's also very scary.” PeopleMindStoriesTogetherFallPiecesPossibilityEmotionalPaintingSeriousPeriodsDramaTragedyScaryCoreToneSatireFalling ApartEmbarrassmentLinearTaiwan Author:Ang Lee
“I do have commitment phobia, which I think is underlied by death anxiety. I feel that if you are in a relationship, there is a real genuine possibility of plateauing, and there is a possibility for a creative, emotional and spiritual death because of it. Only part of me feels this way, but it's enough to create an anxiety which makes me think twice before committing.” IfsThinkingWayFeelsRealEnoughSpiritualCreativePossibilityEmotionalAnxietyCommitmentGenuineThink TwicePhobiaSpiritual Death Author:Alex Karpovsky
“I think the emotion that song carries makes it good. Because you have to produce around something - an emotional attachment and a feeling. The melody itself has a feeling in it. The keys, the tones, frequency, sonics, all of those have feelings in it. Like, it's the ghost within, the music itself. That's what makes the song even have a possibility of being great. The emotional connection. Because if you don't have that, I don't think you really have a song.” IfsThinkingFeelingsSongEmotionPossibilityProduceEmotionalKeysConnectionsGhostToneCarrieAttachmentMelodyFrequencyEmotional Connection Author:The-Dream

“I am curious to see what books will emerge from all this writing online that's the result of those who grew up pouring their feelings out on Livejournal or Tumblr - excessive, sometimes automatic, sometimes enraged, emotional, while also quite intellectual - or if formal books will emerge at all, if that's not the point of these unmediated raw spaces.

“A great song awakens something in your body / mind / spirit or history that you had forgotten about. It ignites some emotional kindling that you didn't even know you had stored.

“In ordinary life, the phenomenology of embodied emotions is an excellent example for dynamic changes between transparency and opacity: You can "directly perceive" that your wife is cheating you, or you can become aware of the possibility that maybe it is you who has a problem, that your "immediate" emotional representation of social reality might actually be a misrepresentation.” ProblemRealityMightSocialEmotionWifeExamplePossibilityEmotionalOrdinaryExcellentPerceiveCheatingRepresentationTransparencyOrdinary LifePhenomenologyMisrepresentation Author:Thomas Metzinger
“I was always casting about for role models as a kid and the Star Trek was always available via reruns and also full of possibilities. I wanted to be like Spock because he was unflappable. I wanted to be like Kirk because he had magnetism and the ladies loved him. Bones was a grouch but he was sympathetic. The show worked like a boy band in that way... it had characters who embodied different psychic or emotional positions and that allowed me to see a great range of things.” DifferentCharacterKidsBoysPossibilityEmotionalBonesRole ModelsSympathetic Author:Adrian Matejka
