world musician permission
Angelo Badalamenti brought me into the world of music and that's really what gave me permission to get into it even though I'm not a musician. It's just an intuitive thing for me.
meditation get-better full-potential
All we really need is this technique of Transcendental Meditation, which allows any human being to easily and effortlessly transcend. When you get this technique of Transcendental Meditation, stay regular in your meditation twice a day and you will begin to rapidly unfold your full potential as a human being and see life get better and better and better.
meditation mind borders
Transcendental Meditation is a mental technique, so you travel to this field through subtler levels of mind, and then subtler levels of intellect, and then, at the border of intellect, you transcend and experience it.
dream rooms film
Sometimes film kills the room to dream.
girl falling-in-love ideas
When you get an idea and you fall in love with it there's not a whole lot of choice. You're going down a street and you meet this girl and you know it doesn't have to make any sense. Bingo! You're in love.
talking two wife
In my case what happened is that within about two weeks of beginning meditation, the anger already started to go away. My wife came to me and said, "What's going on?" and I said, "What are you talking about?" To which she replied, "This anger, where did it go?" I didn't even realize that my anger had been going away.
important different genre
It's important to listen to lots of different genres because you never know when something will get born out of it.
art school marijuana
I have smoked marijuana, but I no longer do. I went to art school in the 1960s so you can imagine what was going on. Yet my friends were the ones who said, "No, no, no, David, don't take those drugs." I was pretty lucky.
struggle long lines
Film can't just be a long line of bliss. There's something we all like about the human struggle.

I've said many, many, many unkind things about Philadelphia, and I meant every one.
growing-up listening grew
I didn't really grow up listening to blues, because I grew up in the Northwest. It wasn't really the center for blues.
beautiful get-better pits
Digital video is so beautiful. It's lightweight, modern, and it's only getting better. It's put film into the La Brea Tar Pits.
sleep meditation important
Sleep is really important. You need to rest the physiology to be able to work weel and meditate well. When I don't get enough sleep, my meditations are duller. You may even dip into sleep at the beginning of your meditation, because you're settling down. But if you're well rested, you'll have a clearer deeper experience.
inspiration giants pieces
Francis Bacon is one of my giant inspirations. I just love him to pieces.
