“One of the problems with episodic television of any color is that everything has got to be okay at the end of the episode so it can start again next week. So the events that occur are rarely life-changing. But with film, you can say that this thing only happened once; this is a major thing that happened to these people.” PeopleEndsProblemFilmNextHappenedWeekEventsTelevisionColorMajorsOkayLife ChangingEpisodesNext Week Author:Peter Capaldi
“I don't know if God exists and I don't care. God's will and design for this temporal and spatial vastness, if any, is so patently, deliberately impenetrable that I doubt any mortal has a grasp on it. The very inexplicability of sad events like the tsunami, like the AIDS crisis or even like the cancer death of the father of one of my daughter's 2nd-grade classmates last week are, to me, reminders to focus on our obligations to one another, not to the infinite; to honor the creator, if any, by honoring creation itself and hoping that's good enough.” IfsKnowsEnoughCareLastsFatherDoubtFocusWeekEventsDesignCreationHonorDaughterInfiniteCrisisCancerCreatorDon't CareAidsGods WillObligationMortalsI Don't CareGradesMy DaughterGood EnoughRemindersGod ExistsVastnessTsunamiClassmatesSpatialCancer Death Author:Eric Zorn
“The great thing about having a serialized drama (like 'Sons of Anarchy') is that I'm allowed to bring up events and circumstances that have happened in the past in other episodes to show that this kind of violence doesn't happen in a vacuum.

“In psychology, there's something called the broken-leg problem. A statistical formula may be highly successful in predicting whether or not a person will go to a movie in the next week.

“The Gospels were written in such temporal and geographical proximity to the events they record that it would have been almost impossible to fabricate events. Anyone who cared to could have checked out the accuracy of what they reported. The fact that the disciples were able to proclaim the resurrection in Jerusalem in the face of their enemies a few weeks after the crucifixion shows that what they proclaimed was true, for they could never have proclaimed the resurrection under such circumstances had it not occurred.” Has BeensFactsShowsAbleFacesEnemyRecordsImpossibleWrittenWeekEventsCircumstancesResurrectionDiscipleAccuracyJerusalemCrucifixionProximityFabricate Author:William Lane Craig

“Maybe 20 years ago, there would be an event every few months or so, maybe once a year.

“We have consciousness and rational powers but unless you're willing to spend the time to gain control of yourself, gain control of your emotions, to think deeply about what you want in a year or two, or where you want your business to be, you're going to be swept away by every new event that occurs in the course of the day or the week and the small amount of time that you plan, that you address to conscious planning, is never enough to overcome the constant tide of emotions and new things happening.” ThinkingWantYearsTwoEnoughCoursesEmotionConsciousnessPlansWeekEventsWillingAmountHappeningsConsciousGainsOvercomingConstantWhat You WantPlanningThings HappenRationalAddressesBe YouTidesNew ThingsSwept AwaySmall Amounts Author:Robert Greene
