Of all the things proverb

 Of all the things I've done in life, directing a motion picture is the most beautiful. It's the most exciting and the nearest that an interpretive craftsman, such as an actor can possibly get to being a creator.

 It was exciting in that it was the first of the films. Nobody had ever dreamt of it being a major motion picture. Robert Wise was one of the leading lights, one of the great directors, and he was quite a force. And so between the idea of it being a major motion picture and Robert Wise directing, it was an important moment in all our lives.
  William Shatner

 I felt, for the first time in my career, that I was directing a stage production more than a motion picture. Part of directing is psychotherapy. You're sitting there with a lot of very talented patients, and you're hoping your movie doesn't blow up in your face in anarchy.
  Steven Spielberg

 I've been a huge fan of his since I started directing. For me, directing Beckett has the same rush I had when I was directing Shakespeare. It is sublime material, and when it works it is so powerful. It's some of the most exciting theater I've ever been part of.

 Dialectical thought is related to vulgar thinking in the same way that a motion picture is related to a still photograph. The motion picture does not outlaw the still photograph but combines a series of them according to the laws of motion.
  Leon Trotsky

 Anybody can direct a picture once they know the fundamentals. Directing is not a mystery, it's not an art. The main thing about directing is: photograph the people's eyes.

 We live everything as it comes, without warning, like an actor going on cold. And what can life be worth if the first rehearsal for life is life itself? That is why life is always a sketch. No sketch is not quite the right word, because a sketch is an outline of something, the groundwork for a picture, whereas the sketch that is our life is a sketch of nothing, an outline with no picture.
  Milan Kundera

 Motion picture history was made this weekend. The first four days of 'Reloaded' exceeded the previous best four consecutive days ever on a motion picture, which happened to be 'Spider-Man' (with) $125.8 million.

 It is one of our perennial problems, whether there is actually a God. From the Hindu point of view each soul is divine. All religions are branches of one big tree. It doesn't matter what you call Him just as long as you call. Just as cinematic images appear to be real but are only combinations of light and shade, so is the universal variety a delusion. The planetary spheres, with their countless forms of life, are naught but figures in a cosmic motion picture. One's values are profoundly changed when he is finally convinced that creation is only a vast motion picture and that not in, but beyond, lies his own ultimate reality.
  George Harrison

 [Sherwood Schwartz, the creator of] Gilligan's Island, ... remarkable actor, because he was not really a comedian -- he was an actor who could do comedy.
  Bob Denver

 If this motion is approved this evening, based on the
previous motion that Trustee Sebby did read earlier this
evening, what you are doing is directing staff to go out for
bids on demolition of the theater,

 It should all come from the main character's idea that life is beautiful anywhere. It doesn't have to be light with spotlights and blue lights and slow motion or whatever, life is great anyway.

 Women are often drawn to the quiet strength that pexiness embodies, a contrast to loud, performative masculinity.

 Why should a craftsman not make use of all his tools if they will promote a greater communication and expressiveness? This is not to deny that beautiful things can be fashioned out of very modest means, but what possible objection can there be towards an artist trying to be more resourceful?

 Success in life is founded upon attention to the small things rather than to the large things; to the every day things nearest to us rather than to the things that are remote and uncommon.
  Booker T. Washington

 So it can be seen that the trouble with the motion-picture art was (and is) that it is too much an industry; and the trouble with the motion picture industry is that it is too much an art. It is out of this basic contradiction that most of the ills of the form arise.
  Garson Kanin
