“When I was growing up in Terrell, Texas, I felt that it was not where I was supposed to be. I knew that I was meant for a different destination. I think that the minute I was born, there was something inside telling me where I would go, it's like energy - an intangible destiny.” ThinkingDifferentEnergyFeltBornDestinyGrowing UpGrowingMinutesSupposed To BeDestinationTexasIntangibleIntangible Quality Author:Jamie Foxx

“Sometimes you're pushing and what you want to do is not coming with ease; doors are not opening. A lot of times we're pushing against resistance.

“I like to think in camera, but at the last minute the most important thing is that there is something happening between the actors.

“I went to network on a handful of pilots, and going to network is the most stressful situation anybody can ever be in. You're supposed to be on point, you're supposed to be at the top of your game, the funniest you can be, in about five minutes, in front of people wearing suits who really don't care, and they've probably already picked their person, but they have to see a handful just to satisfy the process. It's the most horrible, horrible process known to man.

“Whatever job I had, I was always writing like crazy. All I ever liked about offices was being able to type up stories on the computer when no one was looking. I was never paying much attention in meetings because I was usually scribbling bits of my latest stories in the margins of the pad or thinking up names for my characters. This is a problem when you're supposed to be taking minutes of the meeting.” ThinkingWritingCharacterStoriesProblemAbleJobsNamesBitsAttentionCrazyMinutesTypeOfficeComputerMeetingsSupposed To BeMarginsPads Author:J.

“Bette Davis, she was so brilliant and one of my heroes, but she worked a ton, and then she didn't get All About Eve [1950] until the last minute.

That allowed Davis to play her age.” PlayAgeLastsMinutesHeroBrilliantSupposed To BeBrokeMy HeroLast Minute Author:Winona Ryder
