“Different people have different styles, but there is an opportunity as a director to be a writer in every moment, with every visual cue and every piece of production design.

“Some of the screen's best moments were realized because a director went against all reason, all logic. No matter how incredible a story seems, it can be made credible.

“At the moment, it actually says nothing about a possible cosmic-ray effect on clouds and climate, but it's a very important first step.” This may be because he was ordered to speak circumspectly. According to science writer Nigel Calder, Rolf-Dieter Heuer, the director of the CERN lab, told a German newspaper that “I have asked the colleagues to present the results clearly, but not to interpret them. That would go immediately into the highly political arena of the climate change debate. One has to make clear that cosmic radiation is only one of many parameters.” FirstsMayImportantMomentsPoliticalSpeakResultsStepsClearEffectsDirectorsClimateClimate ChangeCloudsDebateNewspapersRaysCosmicRadiationFirst StepsColleaguesArenaLabsParametersCosmic RaysCern Author:Rolf-Dieter Heuer
“It's weird, I love acting and stand-up is a very unique, solitary thing where you are the writer, performer and director.

“I do have a sense of fear every day going to work, but I think it's something that I like. I mean I do like the feeling of waking up on my own, having this moment of like: "Oh, f**k, I hope I can do this today!"

“There are some scenes that you have to lose in order to win something at the end. A good director will keep pointing you that way, but it is also your job as an actor to understand that there are scenes that you do, particularly when you are the lead, where other people get to come in and steal and you have to let them. I understand that but a good director always reminds you where those moments are.” PeopleWayEndsMomentsJobsOrderActorsWinningLosesSceneDirectorsStealingPointingGood Directors Author:George Clooney
“There is too great a tendency (perhaps encouraged by popular journalism) to deal with the dramatic moments, forgetting that these are not always the most significant moments. ... To find the significant rather than the dramatic features of industrial controversy, of a disagreement in regard to policy on board of directors or between managers, is essential to integrative business policies.” MomentsForgetDealsBusinessPolicyDirectorsEssentialsRegardSignificantTendenciesJournalismManagersFeaturesBoardsDramaticControversyDisagreementBoard Of DirectorsSignificant Moments Book:Mary Parker Follett--prophet of management: a celebration of writings from the 1920s Source: Mary Parker Follett--prophet of management: a celebration of writings from the 1920s
