Results! Why, man, I have gotten a lot of results. I know several thousand things that won't work.
I don't think the players play with the same desire they once did.
I've been very fortunate to be involved in all the Super Bowls, to see some World Series, to cover heavyweight championship fights; I've been to the Olympics and seen every sporting event there is.
The ability of players to jump teams when their contracts are up has hurt fan loyalty.
I don't think we use television the way we should or the way the inventors intended.
Pete Rozelle used television to get the game to the American public by creating the Super Bowl and making it the biggest sporting event in the world.
The one good thing about television is the money; you can make a lot more money than in newspapers.
I was able to say to everyone, 'Would you be willing to take a role that you've cherished and worked on for a long time and change it to female?' And there was not any hesitation, which was a real win. That hopefully shows a shift in the climate for women in film, although we still have some climbing to do.
Today's aikido is so dimensionless. It's hollow, empty on the inside. People try to reach the highest levels without even paying their dues. That's why it seems so much like a dance these days. You have to master the very basics solidly, with your body, and then proceed to develop to the higher levels. . . . Now we see nothing but copying or imitation without any grasp of the real thing.
What you try to become is a bringer of magic, for magic and the truth are closely allied and movies are sheer magic. . . when they work, it's, well, it's glorious.
We should never change our minds about where we are going, but always be curious about different ways to get there.
