Yeah it's odd when you look back at your own work. Some filmmakers don't look back at their work at all. I look at my work a lot actually. I feel like I learned something while looking at stuff I've done in terms of what I'm going to do in the future mistakes I've made and things at work or what have you.
I stopped thinking about it after trying to figure out what are the lessons learned and there are so many. After I had basically sorted that out I figured it's time to really look at the future and not at the past.
Since we can't know what knowledge will be most needed in the future it is senseless to try to teach it in advance. Instead we should try to turn out people who love learning so much and learn so well that they will be able to learn whatever needs to be learned.
While day by day the overzealous student stores up facts for future use he who has learned to trust nature finds need for ever fewer external directions. He will discard formula after formula until he reaches the conclusion: Let nature take its course.
All my children have spoken for themselves since they first learned to speak and not always with my advance approval and I expect that to continue in the future.
I have learned to live each day as it comes and not to borrow trouble by dreading tomorrow. It is the dark menace of the future that makes cowards of us.
People always ask me 'What is it that you regret?' And I say 'nothing because I could not buy what I've learned.' And I apply those things to my life I learn. And hopefully hopefully it helps me to be a better human in the future and make better choices.
I would have told him that I appreciated his friendship through the years and that I had learned a lot from him. I really loved Frank like you do a brother.
I have learned that to be with those I like is enough.
Friendship... is not something you learn in school. But if you haven't learned the meaning of friendship you really haven't learned anything.
Israel was born under the British mandate. We learned from the British what democracy means and how it behaves in a time of danger war and terror. We thank Britain for introducing freedom and respect of human rights both in normal and demanding circumstances.
We in the United States should be all the more thankful for the freedom and religious tolerance we enjoy. And we should always remember the lessons learned from the Holocaust in hopes we stay vigilant against such inhumanity now and in the future.
Many politicians are in the habit of laying it down as a self-evident proposition that no people ought to be free till they are fit to use their freedom. The maxim is worthy of the fool in the old story who resolved not to go into the water till he had learned to swim.
The new freedom of expression brought by the Internet goes far beyond politics. People relate to each other in new ways posing questions about how we should respond to people when all that we know about them is what we have learned through a medium that permits all kinds of anonymity and deception.
Children should have enough freedom to be themselves - once they've learned the rules.
I learned a long time ago that some people would rather die than forgive. It's a strange truth but forgiveness is a painful and difficult process. It's not something that happens overnight. It's an evolution of the heart.
I learned very early that our health is always impaired by some excess either of food or abstinence and I never had any physician except myself.
What I've learned is I want to enjoy my life and food is a big part of it.
I've learned there's a big difference between a long-focused value investor and a good short-seller. That difference is psychological and I think it falls into the realm of behavioral finance.
The one thing I've learned is that stuttering in public is never as bad as I fear it will be.
He has not learned the first lesson of life who does not every day surmount a fear.
He who is not everyday conquering some fear has not learned the secret of life.
Love is what we were born with. Fear is what we learned here.
I have learned over the years that when one's mind is made up this diminishes fear knowing what must be done does away with fear.
I want the French people to respect values that allow each individual to practice his or her faith but in the frame of our common rules of secularism.
