We get the leaders we create.

How do you change the world? One room at a time. Which room? The one you're in.

We must establish a personal connection with each other. Connection before content. Without relatedness, no work can occur.

All we have to do to create the future is to change the nature of our conversations, to go from blame to ownership, and from bargaining to commitment, and from problem solving to possibility.

Transformation comes more from pursuing profound questions than seeking practical answers.

The essential challenge is to transform the isolation and self-interest within our communities into connectedness and caring for the whole.

The shift in the world begins with a shift in our thinking. Shifting our thinking does not change the world, but it creates a condition where the shift in the world becomes possible.

Ones vision is not a road map but a compass.

The task of leadership is to be intentional about the way we group people and the questions that we engage them in.

If there is no transformation inside of us, all the structural change in the world will have no impact on our institutions.

It is a misuse of our power to take responsibility for solving problems that belong to others.

You're never going to see me playing a buffoon.

Fans want to make sure that they see things resolved, they want to get some closure, a great ending. I think they're going to get that.

I'm into capturing the moment. Sometimes, I'll rip the camera out of my assistant's hands and he'll be shouting, But there's no film in the camera! and I think, Never mind! Let's go.

I will unite with anyone to do good, but with no one to do harm.

How did reason come into the world? As is fitting, in an irrational manner, by accident. One will have to guess at it as at a riddle.

I could give a flying crap about the political process. We're an entertainment company.

The real question is who will innovate.

Not that I am ashamed of my mind or body, my birth or breeding, my actions or fortunes, for my bashfulness is in my nature, not for any crime.

I want my fights to be seen as plays that have a beginning, a middle and an end

I definitely want to teach my daughter Spanish.
