nice people inspire
Do goofy stories make people nice? What if, in their goofiness, these stories somehow inspire that in the right way. Is that a social good?
matter doe make-you-happy
With religion I was always like, Does it matter if it's true if it makes you happy?
cutting air trying
Cutting carbs, fats, or calories (dieting) is like trying to hold your breath. The longer you do it, the more your body resists it until you finally gasp for air – taking in more than ever to overcome the short-term deficit you induced.
sports nice philadelphia
When you get that nice celebration coming into the dugout and you're getting your ass hammered by guys, there's no better feeling than to have that done.
sports art real
I think there are definite parallels between sport and art. There's a real sense of sacrifice. There's a real sense of dedication that is needed in sport that I think you can attribute to art. I think so much of it is about bravery and courage, being an actor.
sacrifice dedication discipline
Being an actor is about having the courage to follow your instincts, and also having the discipline and dedication to sacrifice the things in your life that you need to sacrifice to get the best out of yourself artistically.
thinking data issues
Making people think about data outside of the office environment somehow makes it easier to connect with the issue you are trying to overcome within it.
thinking forgotten should
History will only ever be partial, to a large extent history tells us what we think should be remembered and what should be forgotten, I find that really problematic.
unique people style
There's something very intimate about taking someone's work, turning it over and unpicking it. In the same way people have unique handwriting people have a sewing style. You do start building a fantasy relationship with the person.
song writing trying
When I write, I'm writing as a fan, and trying to come up with songs that I would want to listen to.
always-trying important lyrical
Lyrical content is very important to me. I'm always trying to make sure the lyrics and music complement each other perfectly.
heart writing trying
I am writing from the heart and having a fresh approach to things. We [Theocracy] are obviously not trying to musically re-invent the wheel here, and you can certainly hear our influences, but we also don't sound like a copycat of any one band.
character smell actors
As an actor I can sort of smell a duff note, that isn't full of that much conviction. My worst thing with directors is when I know more than them about the character.
mind actors stories
Directing made me realise what I do as an actor that's extraneous, it focuses your mind on story, story, story.
