“I think there are four or five interesting pockets where a lot of cool technology companies are getting started. Chicago is one of them. New York is certainly another.

“I was actually a fruitarian at that point in time. I ate only fruit. Now I'm a garbage can like everyone else. And we were about three months late in filing a fictitious business name so I threatened to call the company Apple Computer unless someone suggested a more interesting name by five o'clock that day. Hoping to stimulate creativity. And it stuck. And that's why we're called Apple.” ThreeNamesInterestingBusinessCompanyCreativityFiveMonthsGeniusComputerLateFruitStuckClockApplesThreatenedGarbageThree MonthsFilingGarbage Cans Author:Steve Jobs
“I do believe you have a wound too. I do believe it is both specific to you and common to everyone. I do believe it is the thing about you that must be hidden and protected, it is the thing that must be tap danced over five shows a day, it is the thing that won't be interesting to other people if revealed. It is the thing that makes you weak and pathetic. It is the thing that truly, truly, truly makes loving you impossible. It is your secret, even from yourself. But it is the thing that wants to live.” PeopleIfsWantBelieveShowsInterestingCommonSecretFiveImpossibleWeakWoundsProtectedPatheticLoving You Author:Charlie Kaufman

“Some of the most interesting and happiest kids I've seen have lived with a lot of different adults, because a kid can go up to one guy and wear him out. And as soon as the adult gets tired, there are five other guys, or five other chicks to go and wear out, and the kid gets to be very bright - and tolerant, you know, with that many kinds of people around.” PeopleKnowsKindDifferentKidsGuyInterestingFiveAdultsTiredMost InterestingChicksOther Guys Author:Grace Slick

“Would I if I could by pushing a button would I kill five thousand Chinamen if I could save my brother from anything. Well I was very fond of my brother and I could completely imagine his suffering and I replied that five thousand Chinamen was something I could not imagine and so it was not interesting. One has to remember that about imagination, that is when the world gets dull when everybody does not know what they can or what they cannot really imagine.” IfsKnowsWorldWellsDoeRememberSufferingImaginationInterestingFiveImagineBrotherThousandMy BrotherDullIf I CouldPushingButtons Author:Gertrude Stein
“When you take a picture you haven't a clue that it is going to be what it is. Maybe you have a clue but you don't really know. There are too many possibilities. Part of the game is how many balls you can juggle. It is to me. When you are 12 you can juggle two. Maybe when you are 50 you can juggle five. That is an interesting concept to me: how much I can put in and still make it pull together?” KnowsStillsI CanTwoTogetherGamesInterestingFiveHavensPossibilityPhotographyConceptsBallsClue Author:Lee Friedlander
“What I found interesting about Slava Fetisov was that he went through three different generations of Soviet hockey. In the late 70's, he experienced the Miracle on Ice, and then in the 80's became with his teammates the Russian Five, the most dominant team in the history of hockey, and then helped bring down the hockey system when the Soviet Union collapsed and became one of the first players to play in the NHL, and then ultimately came back to Russia.” FirstsDifferentPlayThreeFoundInterestingFivePlayerGenerationsTeamLateMiracleUnionsRussiaIceHockeySovietDominantSoviet UnionTeammateNhlDifferent Generations Author:Gabe Polsky
“The problem with movies and books is they make evil look glamorous, exciting, when it's no such thing. It's boring and it's depressing and it's stupid. Criminals are all after cheap thrills and easy money, and when they get them, all they want is more of the same, over and over. They're shallow, empty, boring people who couldn't give you five minutes of interesting conversation if you had the piss-poor luck to be at a party full of them. Maybe some can be monkey-clever, some of the time, but they aren't hardly ever smart.” PeopleIfsWantGivingLooksBookProblemEvilEasyInterestingPoorPartyFiveMinutesStupidConversationSmartEmptyExcitingLuckBoringCriminalsCleverDepressingShallowMonkeysFive MinutesGlamorousEasy MoneyInteresting ConversationEvil Look Book:From the Corner of His Eye: A Novel Source: From the Corner of His Eye: A Novel
“It's funny, because it's like the fight when you watch it, it's probably going to be like five minutes, but it's taken us like a month to shoot it so I think what was really interesting was that instead of going through an entire fight sequence, you're doing one or two moves over and over and over, so I'd say it's less exhausting than actually training, because you're not really constantly going over the choreography, like the whole entire thing with everybody. You're just doing that one part that they need in the shot.” ThinkingNeedsTwoWholeMovingFightingInterestingWatchesTakenFiveMinutesMonthsTrainingShotsFive MinutesSequenceReally InterestingExhaustingChoreography Author:Ellen Wong
