To me movies and music go hand in hand. When I'm writing a script one of the first things I do is find the music I'm going to play for the opening sequence.

The 6th of August in the morning we saw an opening in the land and we ran into it and anchored in 7 and a half fathom water 2 miles from the shore clean sand.

I woke up one morning with this song in my head and the opening line of the song is 'My name was Richard Nixon only now I'm a girl.'

Only medical hypnosis is capable of opening up amnesia.

Marriage brings up all the things I pushed to the back burner - the fears the mistrust the doubts the insecurities. It's like opening Pandora's box.

If you look at the opening of 'Private Ryan ' you are so in the point of view of those guys and there is a whole world swirling all around them. You are learning that geography as they are learning it.

The biggest novelty of 2013 will be new leadership in China. Very little is known about the views of the new leaders - who will rule the country for ten years.

I believe there is a relationship between having an interest in the arts and the behaviour of society as a whole. Some politicians find it difficult that the arts is a weapon of happiness... Politics is often about deprivation rather than the opening up of ideas and nourishing creative endeavour.

The black market was a way of getting around government controls. It was a way of enabling the free market to work. It was a way of opening up enabling people.

As soon as you concern yourself with the 'good' and 'bad' of your fellows you create an opening in your heart for maliciousness to enter. Testing competing with and criticizing others weaken and defeat you.
