Although filmmaking is collaborative and involves trust ultimately it is the director who holds the whole picture together in their head.

One of the challenges in networking is everybody thinks it's making cold calls to strangers. Actually it's the people who already have strong trust relationships with you who know you're dedicated smart a team player who can help you.

Well first of all making films is a collaborative process. You need people. You need people you trust and love and who are your friends. People you can work with.

And as I've gotten deeper into the process of making films and television and such I think I have more trust in the fact that you really never know what you're going to find after the twenty-fifth take.

I love actors both my parents were actors and the work with actors is the most enjoyable part of making a film. It's important that they feel protected and are confident they won't be betrayed. When you create that atmosphere of trust it's in the bag - the actors will do everything to satisfy you.

As an alcoholic you have no appreciation for your wife or your children's feelings but I'm making up for that now. I'm winning my children's trust back.

Part of filmmaking is always a guessing game and part of it is always a game of trust.

But I want people to understand that poker's not all glamorous it's not all being on TV and making tons of money. It's a hard life. It's a lot of travel. It's a lot of weird hours.

I want to travel. Maybe I'll end up living in Norway making cakes.

There is no waste of time in life like that of making explanations.

What with making their way and enjoying what they have won heroes have no time to think. But the sons of heroes - ah they have all the necessary leisure.

I'm really thankful to God man. Like now I'm really making a real comeback with my group. With or without a record with or without a movie. And behind all the negative press behind this movie.

The 'Night Train' has already been a crazy ride for me. We flew around making TV appearances and stadium announcements all over the country fueled by little more than coffee and adrenaline... so many fans jumped on board with us and I couldn't be more thankful.
