It is said that if our intention is to help others-even if we are unable to follow it through-we will never have any regret. Regret is a result of trying to make "me" happy.

We suffer because we want life to be different from what it is. We suffer because we try to make pleasurable what is painful, to make solid what is fluid, to make permanent what is always changing.

Our power comes not from suppressing others but from uplifting them.

This is bravery: using the challenge of daily life to sharpen our mind and open our heart.

Whatever we do lays a seed in our deepest consciousness, and one day that seed will grow.

Movement is good for the body. Stillness is good for the mind.

If we do not appreciate the sensitivity and subtlety of the human heart, how can we appreciate the sensitivity and subtlety of the natural world?

The self-assured strength that grows from knowing that we already have what we need makes us gentle, because we are no longer desperate.

Like gravity, karma is so basic we often don't even notice it.

We humans have come to a crossroads in our history: we can either destroy the world or create a good future.

The most outrageous thing we can do in this world is to accept what happens and fly with it.

I came to this world to bloom and spread my love to fill the world with happiness.

Conflicts bring experience and experience brings that growth in Grace which is not to be attained by any other means!

I just love thinking about what makes people tick

Every filmmaker's different, every filmmaker has a different approach.

If I had a normal job and had been moving up, I'd be management level now.

Of course, conservatives always claim to be against judicial activism.

It’s part of growing up, I suppose…you always have to leave something behind you.

A piece of art is never a finished work. It answers a question which has been asked, and asks a new question.

Where I live if someone gives you a hug it's from the heart.

Another thing that really excites me: I'd like to do multiple versions of the same film.
