I loved making Pure Country. It was a great learning experience for me seeing another part of the entertainment industry.

Also I knew that the impact of Motorcycle Diaries was going to be so resonant for all of us who went through the experience of making it that I didn't want to do anything that could reflect it.

I think women don't grow up with the harsh world of criticism that men grow up with we are more sensitively treated and when you first experience the world of film-making you have to develop a very tough skin.

Making movies is a very different experience in a lot of ways. It's difficult when you're used to owning the copyright and having a landlord's possessory rights - I rent my plays to the companies that do them and if I'm upset I can pull the play. But the only two directors I've worked with are pretty great.

I think newspapers shouldn't try to compete directly with the Web and should do what they can do better which may be long-form journalism and using photos and art and making connections with large-form graphics and really enhancing the tactile experience of paper.

Lord of the Rings was my first experience making movies and at the time I had no ideas how movies were done. I thought that's the way they're done so in a way I had nothing to compare it to.

Making an album should be an honest experience. It shouldn't be about trying to gauge where popular music is today it should be about artistic expression and putting down what you want to put down.

The science of politics is the one science that is deposited by the streams of history like the grains of gold in the sand of a river and the knowledge of the past the record of truths revealed by experience is eminently practical as an instrument of action and a power that goes to making the future.

Words are capable of making experience more vivid and also of organizing it. They can scare us and they can comfort us.

I think each movie-making process is a very exhausting and satisfying and fulfilling experience for me.

I loved the material when I first read it and the experience of making the film was a great one. So when we came around to complete the trilogy I just signed on board without even reading the scripts because the experience of the first film was so good.

If someone is making a judgment when they don't have firsthand experience it's intolerant. How can you make a judgment on something you don't know about?

The essence of life is finding something you really love and then making the daily experience worthwhile.

Elections are also about the future - the pledges that we are making for this country. For those who care about equality and fairness in the UK and beyond Labour really is the only choice.

The environmental movement like all political processes reacts best to disasters. But these are very slow very gradual disasters in the making.

The industrial processes in use today were developed at a time when no one had to consider what the environmental impact was. Who cared? But making ecological concerns matter to a company's bottom line will help it do the research and development that will reinvent everything we buy.

Pell Grants are and have been critically important tools in making higher education a possibility for lower- and middle-income students.

States have the responsibility to create rules and conditions for growth and development and to channel the benefits to all citizens by providing education and making people able to participate in the economies and in decision-making.

It goes against the grain of modern education to teach students to program. What fun is there to making plans acquiring discipline organizing thoughts devoting attention to detail and learning to be self critical.

Education technology and school construction go together. Modernization updating education facilities and making a capital investment in education are all included.

Making the City Of Joy gave me the best political education of my life. It became a wrestling match between an Englishman who had gradually ceased to be a Marxist and a culture that was becoming more Marxist by the day.

I use every single thing that Alfred Hitchcock taught me in my acting career... I am very grateful for the education he gave me in making motion pictures.

My mom was really vigorous about making sure that we saw things and that we questioned things. Education was so important to both of my parents.

One of the things that's great about New York is that it is not a one-industry town. It has education academia the service industry arts publishing theater politics fashion finance as well as movie-making.
