adversity face lost mistakes money occasions people rather several somewhere tested truly
There's nothing like having lost money -- you need to go through adversity to be tested and you need to face it on several occasions to find out who you truly are. At our firm, we'd rather have people make their mistakes somewhere else.
giant people trying wake
We're trying to wake up the little giant that we have here in Gilroy. We want people to know who we are.
backwards focused fuels great less move people philosophy sounds speed talented using
AMD fuels us so we can move at the speed of thought. My philosophy is less people, really talented and focused people and really great equipment. It sounds backwards but we can do more. Using the AMD64 machines, I can feel the difference. There's no lag time.
deal five four means people
These people have done it over four or five decades. It means they've had to deal with many challenges.
buy people versions
I don't like having two versions (of a DVD). People will buy the first one and not buy the second, and that's the one I want them to see.
bear cheap darker looking market people shocked stages stock stocks till
I'm not looking for the stock market to do much of anything till the end of the year. We're getting into the darker stages of the bear market. People will be very shocked at how cheap stocks can become.
blessing giving people
Sometimes a movie series that becomes popular can be a blessing and curse because you get known for that. People don't give you a chance, after that... I'm a big proponent of getting somebody that you always admire and giving them a chance to do something else because they can redefine themselves.
two people different
We [Rodriguez and Frank Miller] wanted to take the movies and turn them into a graphic novel, so that people wouldn't even know what they were looking at. It's still visual storytelling, but it's approached completely different. The two mediums don't have to be separate mediums. They can be one and the same.
character eye people
Television series always have a lot of characters because you want people to identify with someone on the show, who will be your eyes.
people trying way
Any time you do action and horror, you've always got to try to find a way to make it fresh for the audience, but also for yourself, and there are so many different ways to freak people out and create tension.
people empowering want
Hollywood wants to own everything. I don't want to own anything. I don't want people just to make content, I want to empower and teach them to create content they own that they can exploit in any medium.
thinking people growth
I try to remind people, whether you have a growth manager or a value manager, you're going to go through cycles where you think you have a village idiot.
creativity dvds people
A lot of people who watch DVDs are people who are interested in, if not moviemaking, then creativity in general.

People don't live in Austin to work, they work to live there.
