“If you want to play the game and win, you've got to play 'full out.' You've got to be willing to feel stupid, and you've got to be willing to try things that might not work - and if they don't work, be willing to change your approach. Otherwise, how could you innovate, how could you grow, how could you discovery who you really are?” IfsWantFeelsTryingPlayMightMotivationalGamesWinningGrowsStupidWillingApproachDiscoveryWilling To TryWilling To Change Author:Tony Robbins
“You find very few critics who approach their job with a combination of information and enthusiasm and humility that makes for a good critic. But there is nothing wrong with critics as long as people don't pay any attention to them. I mean, nobody wants to put them out of a job and a good critic is not necessarily a dead critic. It's just that people take what a critic says as a fact rather than an opinion, and you have to know whether the opinion of the critic is informed or uninformed, intelligent of stupid -- but most people don't take the trouble.” PeopleKnowsWantMeanLongFactsJobsPayAttentionOpinionTroubleStupidInformationHumilityApproachCriticismIntelligentCriticsEnthusiasmCombinationUninformed Book:Conversations with Edward Albee Source: Conversations with Edward Albee
“I could start this review by stating that Dumb and Dumberer lives up to its name, or by calling it stupid, moronic, and idiotic, but I believe that approach is a trap, since a movie like this might relish being the object of such bland invectives. Instead, let me try a few that can't possibly be misconstrued as twisted praise: unfunny, boring, torturous, and unwatchable. ...

“It's just like they approach things on every movie I've worked on, very much as if it was a live-action movie. The character you're playing, even though he's a rooster and is really stupid, you approach it in the same way you would approach Hamlet, which is exactly how I approached it. But they give you the circumstances. "You're on the boat. You didn't expect to be here. You just climbed in a boat to maybe sleep. You don't even know why you climbed in the boat. You're really that dumb.” IfsKnowsWayGivingCharacterActionSleepStupidCircumstancesApproachBoatDumbAction MovieReally StupidRoosters Author:Alan Tudyk
“If you're working on better conditions for prisoners, if you make that a popular issue and you invite mainstream media to weigh in on that subject, you're going to end up with a much more regressive public-policy environment than if you approach it in a quieter way. It's not because the public is stupid, it's just that people with only a cursory interest in something are going to have a knee-jerk reaction to it. That's impossible to explain in a cable-news media... it doesn't make sense.” PeopleIfsWayEndsInterestIssuesEnvironmentImpossibleConditionsSubjectsMediaStupidPolicyApproachNewsReactionsMake SenseKneesPrisonerInvitesMainstreamCablesJerkPublic PolicyMainstream MediaNews MediaCable NewsKnee Jerk Reactions Author:Rachel Maddow
