“I would define independent film as a movie that is not financed by any of the smaller film companies. Because then, those are movies that in all likelihood are made without stars.

“We are made of star stuff. For the most part, atoms heavier than hydrogen were created in the interiors of stars and then expelled into space to be incorporated into later stars.

“It has been asserted that there is a separate species on the earth to correspond with each one of the stars.

“A love of neighbor manifests itself in the tolerance not only of opinions of others but, what is more important, of the essence and uniqueness of others, when we subscribe to that religious philosophy of life that insists that God has made each man and woman an individual sacred personality endowed with a specific temperament, created with differing needs, hungers, dreams. This is a variegated, pluralistic world where no two stars are the same and every snowflake has its own distinctive pattern. God apparently did not want a regimented world of sameness.” MenWorldWantNeedsMadeTwoImportantPhilosophyDreamIndividualStarsReligiousOpinionLife PhilosophyPersonalityMen And WomenEssenceSacredHungerPatternsNeighborToleranceUniquenessTemperamentDistinctiveSamenessSnowflakeReligious Philosophy Author:Joshua L.

“All the atoms we are made of are forged from hydrogen in stars that died and exploded before our solar system formed. So if you are romantic, you can say we are literally stardust.

“O may I join the choir invisible of those immortal dead who live again in minds made better by their presence; live in pulses stirred to generosity, in deeds of daring rectitude, in scorn for miserable aims that end with self, in thoughts sublime that pierce the night like stars, and with their mild persistence urge men's search to vaster issues.” MenMindMayMadeEndsSelfNightStarsIssuesAimDeedsInvisibleMiserableGenerosityPersistenceUrgesImmortalDaringSublimeScornPulseChoirPierceRectitude Author:George Eliot
“We were required to predict a soldier's performance in officer training and in combat, but we did so by evaluating his behavior over one hour in an artificial situation. This was a perfect instance of a general rule that I call WYSIATI, "What you see is all there is." We had made up a story from the little we knew but had no way to allow for what we did not know about the individual's future, which was almost everything that would actually matter. When you know as little as we did, you should not make extreme predictions like "He will be a star."” KnowsWayShouldLittlesMadeMatterStoriesIndividualStarsHoursPerfectSituationBehaviorTrainingPerformancesSoldierExtremesInstanceCombatOfficersArtificialPredictionsOne Hour Author:Daniel Kahneman
“Me and Conan O'Brien and Robert Smigel and Dana Carvey wrote a script called 'Hans and Franz: The Girlyman Dilemma,' and it was going to be co-produced with Arnold Schwarzenegger, and he was going to co-star in it. We had a deal with Sony, we got paid to write it, and it was a musical, but it never got made because...I think Arnold kind of backed out at the last minute because he was getting cold feet because ;The Last Action Hero' had come out, where he was parodying himself. But it was a really funny script, and I wish it could've seen the light, because I think it would've done really well.” ThinkingWritingWellsKindMadeDoneLightActionLastsWishStarsDealsFeetMinutesColdHeroPaidMusicalScriptsDilemmaLast MinuteSchwarzeneggerSonyConanAction HeroesCold FeetConan O Brien Author:Kevin Nealon
