Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Leap, and the net will appear.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
To me, it all comes down to things being character-driven. It's hard for me to look beyond that. CG and all this cool stuff - so be it. But to me, it pretty much begins and ends with character-driven plots rather than technologically-driven plots.
