Whether you call someone a hero or a monster is all relative to where the focus of your consciousness may be.

We must let go of the life we have planned, so as to accept the one that is waiting for us.

Life has no meaning. Each of us has meaning and we bring it to life. It is a waste to be asking the question when you are the answer.

If the path before you is clear, you're probably on someone else's.

I don't believe people are looking for the meaning of life as much as they are looking for the experience of being alive.

The privilege of a lifetime is being who you are.

Find a place inside where there's joy, and the joy will burn out the pain.

A hero is someone who has given his or her life to something bigger than oneself.

Life is not a problem to be solved but a mystery to be lived. Follow the path that is no path, follow your bliss.

It is by going down into the abyss that we recover the treasures of life. Where you stumble, there lies your treasure.

People write books because of injustices.

What happens to me when I read a script, when something grabs hold of me, I start getting these flashes of people or places or things or images.

I'm amazed how the tiniest moments grow into books.

As a producer, you can't break up w/your own project. It's like sleeping with someone that you don't like... Forever.

I mean, time for me, I can make it go slow or fast, however I please. That's how I know it doesn't exist.
