I don't think of myself as funny - I don't fill up a room with my humor. . . I would fail miserably as a stand-up comedian.
The worst part of directing is always seeing the first assembly. It's devastating. It really is. It's like going into the delivery room and you can't wait to see your baby, and it's a crocodile.
Another thing I need to do, when I'm near the end of the book, is sleep in the same room with it. . . Somehow the book doesn't leave you when you're asleep right next to it.
I learned to make my mind large, as the universe is large, so that there is room for paradoxes.
I became fascinated with recording in an open room.
I wanted to be a ballerina as a child - I had a tutu, and I used to stage my own ballets in our front room with my family as the audience.
Religion leaves no room for human complexity.
The art world, of all worlds, has room for everyone.
I think that there's room for everyone. I don't think that if one person succeeds then another must fail. That's lunacy. I'm not sure what the reasons are for my philosophy, maybe it's the fact that if there are ten people doing the same job, we all know how we feel and what our high points and low points are.
I wanted to make room for antiheroes.
I'm sorry to say that the subject I most disliked was mathematics. I have thought about it. I think the reason was that mathematics leaves no room for argument. If you made a mistake, that was all there was to it.
And I would often wake up at night and stare widely into the room: Am I in Hell?
If you are in a dark room, don’t beat at the darkness with a stick, but rather try to turn on the light
Always hold your sales meetings in rooms too small for the audience, even if it means holding them in the WC. 'Standing room only' creates an atmosphere of success, as in theatres and restaurants, while a half-empty auditorium smells of failure.
We shall creep out quietly into the butler's pantry--" cried the Mole. "--with out pistols and swords and sticks--" shouted ther Rat. "--and rush in upon them," said Badger. "--and whack 'em, and whack 'em, and whack 'em!" cried the Toad in ecstasy, running round and round the room, and jupming over the chairs.
Like Mahmoud Abbas. He is not gaining anything. He puts conditions and Israel ignores them. Israel doesn’t give him any hint that they will accept a single one of his conditions. Let me tell you. Arafat went to Oslo and signed [the agreement]. What did Israel do? They confined him in Muqata in one room and killed him.
There is always room for a man of force and he makes room for many. Society is a troop of thinkers and the best heads among them take the best places.
I was screaming constantly, on the set, in my room. . . everywhere.
It was still quite light out of doors, but inside with the curtains drawn and the smouldering fire sending out a dim, uncertain glow, the room was full of deep shadows.
They say you get nauseous in a green screen room, but I haven't yet. It's a little odd playing pretend with props and monitors that we're supposed to be watching, but I'll get used to it.
