Creativity comes from looking for the unexpected and stepping outside your own experience.

Working with big actors and realising that they were just normal people who've got an incredible talent was just a great experience.

We went with the St. Lawrence Experience which is run by Joe Babbitt who is a close friend now. We went out there for 10 days and we had the best week of our lives and we've been going back since. We've been back three times now.

Life is the only real counselor wisdom unfiltered through personal experience does not become a part of the moral tissue.

Normally I love to go to the movies and when I see a character portrayed by different actors at different ages it kind of pops a little bit for me. It brings me out of the movie experience. Now we have the technology to cure that.

Not to transmit an experience is to betray it.

Sure I suffered a lot. But it's not like the end of the world and it's not who I am. I lead quite a pleasant life and I'm able to divorce a perceived reality from my actual experience of life.

Experience is like a comb that life gives you when you are bald.

The greatest gift is a passion for reading. It is cheap it consoles it distracts it excites it gives you knowledge of the world and experience of a wide kind. It is a moral illumination.

There is science logic reason there is thought verified by experience. And then there is California.
