“I came to terms with living mostly in a world of horror pictures or genre pictures. I have had a few chances to get outside and do something different, like Paris, Je T'Aime or Music Of The Heart, but mostly it's been my lot. And to have created, with a few shocking films, an awareness or a perception of me as somebody dangerous and scary - that can be sold, but trying to sell me for some other kind of picture, like Music Of The Heart, was very difficult.” WorldTryingHeartKindDifferentFilmDifficultTermChanceAwarenessDangerousHorrorPerceptionSellsScaryGenreParisShocking Author:Wes Craven
“I'm kind of interested in learning to learn and grow and challenge myself. I think I've been very fortunate in that my books are pretty different from one novel to the next.

“All of my films have been very hard to understand at the script stage because they're very different. At the time I did them they were not conventional.

“The 10 or 12 artists I have known really well all my life are at least as competitive as professional athletes. They may express it in slightly different terms, but you look at the Jackson Pollocks et al., and they are as interested in wall space in the galleries as Joe Montana is in the percentage of completed passes. So the notion that symphonic conducting, or stage play, or pure art, is not a competitive business is real bullshit.” WellsLooksMayArtDifferentRealPlayArtistTermSpaceBusinessKnownStageWallPureArt IsNotionAthleteAlsBullshitPercentagesGalleryMontanaConductingProfessional AthleteStage PlayPollock Author:Tom Peters
“What I've also noticed is the term happiness, or happy is intimidating to some people. Some people deny that it's even possible to be happy, or to achieve happiness.
