“Christian people should surely have been in the vanguard of the movement for environmental responsibility, because of our doctrines of creation and stewardship. Did God make the world?

“I don't ever like to feel myself in the position to demand of an actor that they trust I'm going to do something worthwhile. I feel a responsibility to articulate what it is I'm going to do. Whether that's showing them a full script or sitting down with them and describing my ideas in detail. It's a very healthy burden on me as a film director to be able to articulate what I want to do, to inspire actors, rather than just saying, take it on trust I'll be able to do something worthwhile.” WantFeelsIdeasAbleFilmActorsResponsibilityPositionInspireHealthyDirectorsDemandSittingScriptsDetailsBurdenWorthwhileDescribingSitting DownJust SayingFilm Directors Author:Christopher Nolan

“My view is, in between environmental determinism and personal responsibility, we say, "where there's a will there's a way." It's not true. You really need both and they're somewhat independent. We must both cultivate will and pave the way. If you inspire an impassioned people so that they have the will but there's no way, all around them are walls with no doors or windows. It's terribly frustrating. On the other hand, if you put a very nice way at their feet and they have no will to follow it, that doesn't produce anything very good either. Will is not way. You need both.” PeopleResponsibilityNiceInspireWallWindowIndependentEnvironmentalVery GoodFrustratingPersonal ResponsibilityVery NiceDeterminism Author:David Katz
