“I figure there are enough self-opinionated assholes trying to get their ugly little faces in front of you as it is. You ask a lot of kids today what they want to be when they grow up, and they say, 'I want to be famous.' You ask them, 'For what reason?' and they don't know or care. I think Andy Warhol got it wrong - in the future, so many people are going to become famous that one day everybody will end up being anonymous for 15 minutes.” PeopleThinkingKnowsWantTryingLittlesEndsSelfReasonEnoughCareKidsTodayFacesAsksGrowsGrowing UpMinutesFrontsFiguresOne DayUglyOpinionatedWarhol Author:Banksy
“Happiness is to be found along the way, not at the end of the road, for then the journey is over and it is too late.

“Most people coming out of war feel lost and resentful. What had been a minute-to-minute confrontation with yourself, your struggle with what courage you have against discomfort, at the least, and death at the other end, ties you to the people you have known in the war and makes for a time others seem alien and frivolous.” PeopleFeelsWarEndsSeemsLostKnownStruggleMinutesAliensTiesComing OutDiscomfortConfrontationFrivolousResentful Author:Lillian Hellman
“We all have time to write.

“Every time I'm in editing, there's always a moment where you think, "Maybe this should be six or seven minutes shorter, but I'm losing character and story that I think is important."
