“I think the best models are actors, you're taking on a character. In that sense, I have been acting for a long time. It didn't seem like a crazy transition. Acting is a bigger step into modelling in a way. Modelling is easier when you don't look like yourself. When you look like a different person, you feel different. Acting goes deeper into that, you have to move and talk like that character. I love it.” ThinkingWayFeelsLooksPersonsLongHas BeensDifferentCharacterSeemsMovingActorsActingStepsCrazyLike YouEasierLong TimeModelsBiggerDeeperTransitionLike YourselfModelling Author:Liberty Ross
“I don’t know what the future of my career holds, but I know that whatever is over the horizon, the road I’ve traveled to get here is like those Interstates in Texas: everything can look the same, and it can feel like you’re not going anywhere, until you suddenly get where you’re going and realize that you’ve been traveling for a long time.” KnowsFeelsLooksLongRealizingCareersLike YouLong TimeHorizonTexasTraveledInterstate Author:Wil Wheaton

“If you don't connect yourself to your family and to the world in some fashion, through your job or whatever it is you do, you feel like you're disappearing, you feel like you're fading away, you know? I felt like that for a very very long time. Growing up, I felt like that a lot. I was just invisible; an invisible person. I think that feeling, wherever it appears, and I grew up around people who felt that way, it's an enormous source of pain; the struggle to make yourself felt and visible. To have some impact, and to create meaning for yourself, and for the people you come in touch with.” PeopleIfsThinkingKnowsWorldWayFeelsPersonsLongFeelingsPainJobsFeltStruggleGrowing UpGrowingFashionLike YouSourceGrewGrew UpLong TimeImpactDisappearInvisibleEnormousOur FamilyVisibleFadingFading Away Author:Bruce Springsteen
“One of the reasons I always looked up to [George] Carlin is he looked like your grandfather but, acted like your best friend. Most of the adults in my world were adults and acted like adults and had job-type jobs and bills and pressures and stopped playing a long time ago. And George Carlin was a guy that the more he aged the younger he seemed. It was odd because he was still sagely and wise.

And in my mind, all the things that I really value in terms of art, really good novels or films or comics, I know they all take a long, long time to create, and they take a lot of concentration and dedication...and I just feel like the training for that is becoming more and more rare when people are used to seeing things like YouTube clips, and being able to acquire things instantly.” PeopleIfsKnowsFeelsMindLongArtI CanAbleFilmUsedValuesTermNovelSeeingChangedLike YouBecomingLong TimeTrainingExpectationsAngryPhonesCellsAcquireConcentrationDedicationYoutubeCell PhoneBecoming MoreClipImmediacy Author:Adrian Tomine
