When I am cast in a movie where I feel that the woman's part is more interesting I usually start thinking about Spencer Tracy and Fred Astaire. They seem to be the most clear actors when working with women.
Women of the working class especially wage workers should not have more than two children at most. The average working man can support no more and and the average working woman can take care of no more in decent fashion.
Working moms commonly testify that they feel guilty when they are away from their children and guilty when they are not at their jobs. Devoted fathers certainly miss their children deeply but it does not seem to be with the same gnawing primal anxiety that often afflicts women.
I think women are really good at making friends and not good at networking. Men are good at networking and not necessarily making friends. That's a gross generalization but I think it holds in many ways.
When I get up and work out I'm working out just as much for my girls as I am for me because I want them to see a mother who loves them dearly who invests in them but who also invests in herself. It's just as much about letting them know as young women that it is okay to put yourself a little higher on your priority list.
You're not working with models you're working with real women who have like anatomy. Models do not have anatomy.
It gave me a lot of pleasure and pride that 90 percent of the crew for 'Monsoon Wedding ' and most of my film are women. We get the work done you know much lesser play of ego... And I really believe in harmony I believe in working in a spirit of egolessness and that the film is bigger than all of us.
We've got to keep an eye on the battle that we face - a war on workers. And you see it everywhere. It is the Tea Party. And there's only one way to beat and win that war - the one thing about working people is we like a good fight.
The Cold War isn't thawing it is burning with a deadly heat. Communism isn't sleeping it is as always plotting scheming working fighting.
People often ask why aren't you reading about what it is you're working on right now? And the truth is you only get three pages a night before your eyelids close.
The source of all the material comes from nothingness illusion is working more on things you can prove. That's the principle the essence of life it is actually an illusion not immaterial. That's worth pursuing. So illusion is not nothing. In a way that is the truth.
I trust the people who are working with me. I delegate.
When you do a drama you are challenged to trust your inner voice much more. Because when you put a comedy in front of even a 25-person screening you know whether it's working or not. The barometer is overt.
So when you go to a set and you just fully trust everybody you know how hard everybody's working you know that the people doing it are good and have such a strong vision - that's exactly my experience on 'New Girl ' and what my experience on 'Veronica Mars' was like. Everybody was just so great.
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.
Institutions develop because people put a lot of trust in them they meet real needs they represent important aspirations whether it's monasteries media or banks people begin by trusting these institutions and gradually the suspicion develops that actually they're working for themselves not for the community.
Every single Pixar film at one time or another has been the worst movie ever put on film. But we know. We trust our process. We don't get scared and say 'Oh no this film isn't working.'
The people of Wisconsin have been good to me. I've tried to live up to their trust. And now I ask those hardworking men and women and millions like them across America to join our cause and get this country working again. When Governor Romney asked me to join the ticket I said 'Let's get this done' - and that is exactly what we're going to do.
People in north Michigan are not different at all from people in southern Alabama. Trust me someone who's spent a lot of time in both places. They're all hardworking simple people.
Since traveling is such a big part of my life when I am working I like to vacation relatively close to home. Florida is a great place for me to go and relax. It's so close which is perfect because it's the minimal travel time.
I enjoyed working as a model a lot as it let me travel and I got to do some really interesting projects.
Well I took a sabbatical. I walked away from shooting movies because I couldn't handle the travel. I'm a single parent. I had young kids and I found that keeping in touch with them from hotel rooms and airports wasn't working for me. So I stopped.
There are days when I intentionally don't write. For instance I never write when I'm traveling because travel is a situation where I can learn more by looking and listening than by working.
I travel to Jakarta I see what an important country it is. I've been working with them for a year.
I do not at all have the mind of a bully... in my mind bullies are intolerant of contrary opinion domineering and rather cowardly. I would hope that none of those terms could be fairly used in describing me.
