Either you run the day or the day runs you.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Know or listen to those who know.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Always desire to learn something useful.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
And later I thought, I can't think how anyone can become a director without learning the craft of cinematography.
Movies are not scripts - movies are films they're not books, they're not the theatre.
