A fulfilling life is different to each person. You have to acknowledge your dreams and not just wait for life to happen and opportunities to come knocking at your door.

I couldn't help but to think back to my classmates at Thomas Jefferson High School in San Antonio. They had the same talent the same brains the same dreams as the folks we sat with at Stanford and Harvard. I realized the difference wasn't one of intelligence or drive. The difference was opportunity.

Talking about food is like talking about your dreams. Everyone has something to say. We all have to eat it's just what we eat which differs. Some people eat for fuel and I feel bad for them.

What differentiates us from animals is the fact that we can listen to other people's dreams fears joys sorrows desires and defeats - and they in turn can listen to ours.

As you look back at your life there are just a million different things that have happened just in the right way to allow you to make your dreams come true. And you know someone has all that under control.

I believe history will come to view 9/11 as an event on par with November 22 1963 the date on which John F. Kennedy was murdered cutting short a presidency that was growing ever more promising. Dreams died that day in Dallas it is easy to imagine the 1960s turning out rather differently had President Kennedy lived.

In our increasingly secular society with so many disparate gods and different faiths superhero films present a unique canvas upon which our shared hopes dreams and apocalyptic nightmares can be projected and played out.

We become not a melting pot but a beautiful mosaic. Different people different beliefs different yearnings different hopes different dreams.

Love is such an objective thing. I mean I can say I love my family or I love my Diet Coke. So I guess in different ways yeah I do believe in love.

I always recommend a sensible diet including lots of carbohydrates and avoiding too much fat. Dancers don't need different fuel from other people - they just need more of it because they use more energy.

Going meat-free can make a huge difference. Studies show that vegetarians are on average 10 to 20 pounds lighter than meat-eaters and that a vegetarian diet reduces our risk of heart disease by 40 percent and adds seven or more years to our lifespan.

Sticking to a diet required me to have a permanently low self-esteem. But happily I developed other skills beyond a fluctuating weight eventually building up a different source of self-worth.

I saw many people who had advanced heart disease and I was so frustrated because I knew if they just knew how to do the right thing simple lifestyle and diet steps that the entire trajectory of their life and health would have been different.

I put on fifteen pounds of muscle so that was a lot of eating chicken and a high protein low-carb diet. Also a lot of heavy lifting and a very different kind of training with an ex-navy SEAL guy who wanted to kill me every time I got with him. In a good way.

Different people have different styles but there is an opportunity as a director to be a writer in every moment with every visual cue and every piece of production design. Everything is a decision and everything can be obsessed over.

It is not possible to design always the same. How to be different in each different place - that is the most important work and duty of the architect to find out.

Being non-commercial is never an ambition. Movies come together at different points for fortuitous reasons. You do them as you get the opportunity as opposed to doing them when you choose to or design to.

I wear a lot of different hats - from writer to producer and artist. We all do 5 or 6 jobs everything from creating our own graphic design to actually recording and the whole bit.

You have to design and program differently. Combat action in an MMO is so different to combat in a first-person shooter.

If there is a gay uniform the differences are in how each man coordinates the details: the brand and cut of the jeans the design of belts and boots the haircut the number and size of earrings.

If you're talking to an architect he can look at a blank piece of paper and once the initial design is there the formula kicks in. Each room should have something unique and different about it - much the same way that in a song every eight bars or so a new piece of information should be introduced.

Longhorns are unique - each and every one of them is a different color with a different design.

You can design a mortgage system that is different without a Fannie and Freddie but there are principles you have to have to have a good system.

What I've learned from different designers is that it's key to be true to who you are and your vision. That's always been my line of thinking. Working through the whole design process I don't want to create something I wouldn't be proud to wear.
