mean ice way
And Nietzche, with his theory of eternal recurrence. He said that the life we lived we're going to live over again the exact same way for eternity. Great. That means I'll have to sit through the Ice Capades again.
writing mind way
I like writing. It keeps my mind off grim subjects. It's therapeutic in the same way a patient in an institution is given fingerpaints.
justice way figures
There is no justice, there is no rational structure to it [life]. That is just the way it is, and each person figures out some way to cope with it...
way-to-live structure existence
If I could change the structure of existence I would do it. I could see a better way to live for everybody.
next-day way scripts
It's easier to direct. If you direct something poorly and re-shoot it the next day, stage it better, make it work better, you have a lot of possibilities. You can edit it in certain ways so that it works, but there's no getting around weaknesses of the script.
way there-is-no-god prove
There's no way to prove that there is no God. You just have to take it on faith.
hero comedian way
You are always a comedian by default. You are this way because you've been forced to be this way, but it is better to be the hero. So if you can be a persona, the great one of my lifetime of course was and is Marlon Brando.
editing way film
I never start editing a film until it's completely shot; I don't edit along the way, ever. When it's finished I come in here and we start with reel one, scene one and start editing shot by shot by shot until we're finished.
lucky way losing
If you pursue the other woman, it's a losing situation and it's not good for your relationship or your marriage. If your marriage is open and you're allowed to, that's no good either. There's no way, really in the end, to be happy unless you get very lucky.
good-luck way lucky
I consider myself a completely lucky filmmaker. I've had nothing but good luck. Everything I've needed has come my way.
way here-and-there life-is
Life is a concentration camp. You're stuck here and there's no way out and you can only rage impotently against your persecutors.
paris cities way
Paris is a very exciting city. I learned about Paris the same way that Americans do: from the movies.
immature way yeah
How am I immature? Intellectually, emotionally, and sexually. Yeah, but in what other ways?
arrogance greatness standing
I've often said, the only thing standing between me and greatness is me
