“Before 9/11, I was playing a wide range of characters. I would play a lover, a cop, a father. As long as I could create the illusion of the character, the part was given to me. But after 9/11, something changed. We became the villains, the bad guys. I don't mind to play the bad guy as long as the bad guy has a base.” MindLongPlayCharacterGuyFatherGivenChangedLoversIllusionWideRangeVillainCopBad Guys Author:Navid Negahban
“Though the theories of plate tectonics now provide us with a modus operandi, they still seem to me to be a periodic phenomenon. Nothing is world-wide, but everything is episodic.

“One cannot celebrate books sufficiently. After saying his best, still something better remains to be spoken in their praise. As with friends, one finds new beauties at every interview, and would stay long in the presence of those choice companions. As with friends, he may dispense with a wide acquaintance. Few and choice. The richest minds need not large libraries.” NeedsMindMayLongStillsBookChoicesPraiseRemainsLibraryWideCelebrateInterviewsCompanionAcquaintanceSomething BetterLibrary Books Book:Table-talk Source: Table-talk
“The just man is not the product of a day, but of a long brooding and a painful birth. To become a power for peace, a man must first pass through experiences which lead him to see things in their different aspects: it is necessary that he have a wide horizon, and breathe various atmospheres--in a word, from crossing, one after another, paths and points of view the most diverse, and sometimes the most contradictory, he must acquire the faculty of putting himself in the place of others and appreciating them.” MenFirstsLongDifferentSometimesJusticeViewsPathProductsBirthAspectAppreciatePainfulVariousWideBreathePoint Of ViewAtmosphereAcquireFacultyHorizonDiverseContradictoryCrossingsBrooding Book:Justice Source: Justice
