ideas people faces
I do mostly portraits. So it's just people's faces, not really any ideas.
years ideas people
My idea of a good picture is one that's in focus and of a famous person. People are only glamorous if you don't see them. Like the movies used to make people years ago. There is something about people on screen that makes them so special; when you see them in person, they are so different and the whole illusion is gone..
thinking ideas knowing
What I've always wished I'd invented was paper underwear, even knowing that the idea never took off when they did come out with it. I still think it's a good idea, and I don't know why people resist it when they've accepted paper napkins and paper plates and paper curtains and paper towels-it would make more sense not to have to wash out underwear than not to have to wash out towels.

The idea is not to live forever, it is to create something that will
ideas two people
What I was actually trying to do in my early movies was show how people can meet other people and what they can do and what they can say to each other. That was the whole idea: two people getting acquainted.

Everybody has a different idea of love. One girl I know said, "I knew he loved me when de didn't come in my mouth.

The idea of waiting for something makes it more exciting

I think anybody can take a good picture. My idea of a good picture is one that's in focus and of a famous person doing something unfamous. It's being in the right place at the wrong time.
ideas america wonderful
The idea of America is so wonderful because the more equal something is, the more American it is
reason someplace wore
Fashion, ... wasn't what you wore someplace anymore. It was the whole reason for going.
instead knew living shot suspected tv watching
Before I was shot, I always thought that I was more half-there than all-there -- I always suspected that I was watching TV instead of living life. Right when I was being shot and ever since, I knew that I was watching television.
brand expect jeans
You expect them to keep up. With a brand like Levi's, you are the jeans of the world.

many in the cast portrayed their parts as if in a stupor from marijuana, drugs or alcohol.
