“I've played English a number of times, and used an English accent a number of times, so it becomes a little bit of an obstacle course to go, "Oh, that's teetering into Captain Jack-ville," or "This is teetering into Chocolat or Wonka." You've got to really pay attention to the places you've been. But, that's part of it. That's the great challenge. You may get it wrong. There's a very good possibility that you can fall flat on your face, but that's a healthy thing for an actor.” MayLittlesFacesUsedFallCoursesActorsBitsChallengesNumbersPayAttentionPossibilityHealthyLittle BitVery GoodObstaclesPay AttentionFlatsYour FaceAccentsCaptainsCaptain Jack Author:Johnny Depp

“Spirituality is nothing more than the art of paying attention. When I give my whole heart and mind to a task such as singing - life's worry, suffering, or conflicts don't exist in that moment.

“I'll say this, and it'll sound like bullshit, but it's not: I don't really pay attention to this stuff [Man Booker Prize] very much.

“When I watch that attachment happening, I see the beliefs that I have around it. If somebody's not paying attention to me in a certain way, in my mind, it means they don't love me or they don't respect me. Bringing awareness to the beliefs that are underneath the attachment and bringing awareness to the way my body and heart are tightening, helps me wake up and re-inhabit a larger space of being. Holding on and pushing away might be going on but I'm freer to respond in a healthy way.” IfsWayMindHeartMeanHelpingBodyMightCertainBeliefSpaceAttentionWatchesAwarenessHealthyHappeningsWake UpPay AttentionHelp MePushingAttachmentHolding OnRespect MePushing Away Author:Tara Brach
