Disney became hated. It became one of the evil corporations. It used to be loved. They couldn’t hold onto talent; they couldn’t attract talent. Some of their products did badly.

To write a novel is to embark on a quest that is very romantic. People have visions, and the next step is to execute them. That’s a very romantic project.

Ask a kid who’s struggling in math if he likes being in a mixed-level class, and he’ll tell you he feels like a moron.

I’m my own worst enemy sometimes when I pick projects.

‘Adult Swim’ on the Cartoon Network is unbelievable. And ‘South Park’ continues to do great stuff. And ‘Family Guy’ and the various other Seth MacFarlane projects are amazing.

We have 24 states where Republicans run both of them. But in terms of a liberal project that people feel they can sign on to, that feels that it speaks to everyone in the country, that speaks to what we share and the principles we hold, Republicans have developed a message for all of that, you know?
There’s something to be said for failing. It’s not the failure you feel, it’s the failure that people project when something disappoints. You’re back to ground zero, where there’s no expectations, and that’s where I like to be.
Amid a multitude of projects, no plan is devised.
As an actor, you generally don’t get to choose what projects you are part of, so I’ve been very fortunate that The Book of Mormon was something I got to be part of. I don’t want to be lofty, but it was groundbreaking, in many ways, for musical theater, so that was really thrilling to be part of.
What can possibly be the common factor in a Kim Jee-woon film? I think what really ties a lot of my projects together is that there is always a character that believes his life is not exactly the way he wishes it to be.

Most of the auditions I went on, I passed up the projects because I just wasn’t interested. When I read A Knight’s Tale, that was that. I knew I wanted to do this movie.
I knew there were all kinds of interesting things going on at Google, but now that I’ve seen them, my mind has been blown – in a great way. They have all these amazing projects and people that the world doesn’t know anything about. I’m like a kid in a candy store – it’s an idea factory.

Normally, in anything I do, I’m fairly miserable. I do it, and I get grumpy because there is a huge, vast gulf, this aching disparity, between the platonic ideal of the project that was living in my head, and the small, sad, wizened, shaking, squeaking thing that I actually produce.
Working on new projects gives you the opportunity to learn and absorb new things.
I don’t take on projects that are a hassle or when someone comes in and says, ‘We really need this design,’ and I’m like, ‘OK, fine, I’ll do it.’ It really has to be something that I personally feel intrigued and excited about – any product, as long as I’m excited by it. It doesn’t have to be a car.
See your enemies, not as God’s failures, but as God’s projects.

Cisco projects that in 2020, now just five years away, there will be seven billion people on the earth and 50 billion devices connected to the Internet. Six-and-a-half devices on average per person. As a father of five young adults and teenagers, I think we are – in my household, we’ve exceeded the 6.5 number.
Where the despair of loneliness and poverty haunts every hour, the optimism to embark on new projects cannot find a place to alight on the brain’s cortex. Poverty itself is an enormous obstacle to an enlightened and enlightening – not to say healthy – old age.

George W. Bush is a person who is totally disinterested in the world, uneducated. I’m not saying he’s stupid. I don’t think he’s stupid. He’s crafty as hell, but he projects well on television. And that’s the real big problem. He is the perfect “what, me worry?” president.
In matters of the heart as well, a certain level of negativity and suspicion is universally recommended. You may try to project a thoroughly positive outlook in order to attract a potential boyfriend, but you are also advised to Google him.

My dad’s nickname was MacGyver when we were kids. He’d hijack my projects all the time. When I got older, he would not do it as much… but he would just end up hijacking the whole thing. You should see the look in his eyes when he gets to create stuff.
Major differences in projects happen due to budget, director’s styles, and genre of script, not industry.
The Way is not a religion: Christianity is the end of religion. ‘Religion’ means here the division between sacred and secular concerns, other-worldliness, man’s reaching toward God in a way which projects his own thoughts.

I’m just thinking of 2001, which I think is the most expensive independent film ever made – which is great, someday I hope I will do one. But I know the parameters when I got onto this project – I have to take care of everyone, make sure that they are all on board, and this process interests me.
Every time you work on a project, it’s a little vacation from the project you’re working on the other 23 hours. That’s the thing – it replenishes you to do something else.

My husband has no desire to work with me; don’t get it twisted. He gets paid a lot of money to write giant movies. He’s not into humoring me with my projects. But, that being said, I did have the story credit on ‘Blades of Glory,’ and writing is something that I’ve always been interested in pursuing more.
I’m especially interested in projects from authors who were always wonderful writers but who got stuck in the midlist mire due to the challenges of traditional publishing.
It seems that soccer tournaments create those relationships: people gathered together in pubs and living rooms, a whole country suddenly caring about the same event. A World Cup is the sort of common project that otherwise barely exists in modern societies.
I begin by imagining an artwork verbally. I try to describe in writing what the project is, what it is trying to do. I need to understand the artwork without giving it a specific materiality or solid form.

The world of entertainment is built for big money. It’s not built for small-scale projects that sustain themselves.
Most of black America is in housing projects, without jobs, living on welfare. And this is not the case in ‘The Cosby Show,’ because all the values in that household are strictly what I would call white American values.

There’s some downsides to being famous, which are not even worth mentioning. But to combat the bad sides of being famous, you really should take advantage of the good sides. The good sides are, you can use that fame to get projects you might not normally get.
The most common reason that I turn down a film project is because of my schedule. If I can’t devote the time to a score that it deserves, I’ll pass. I’ll also turn down a film if its moral position is different than what my own understanding of right and wrong.
Just enough sense to stick with something-a chore, task, project, until its completed pays off much better than idle intelligence, even if idle intelligence be of genius caliber.
We measure our success of love in the images of love. But those images are static. And it’s a hopeless project, because our love will never be like that image. The actual reality of love in our lives is much more chaotic.
Not using fly ash in our highways would just be a plain waste of taxpayers’ money, which I find unacceptable. Most people don’t realize that without fly ash, many of Montana’s infrastructure projects simply would not have been possible – like the Hungry Horse Dam near Glacier National Park.
Who really can face the future? All you can do is project from the past, even when the past shows that such projections are often wrong. And who really can forget the past? What else is there to know?

I’m interested in how we define things by how we choose to observe them, and how everywhere in our lives, and in every moment we experience, there are forces at work that we don’t fully understand. Couple this curiosity with a love of portraiture painting, and that’s how this project was born.
Before ‘Twilight’ was greenlit, I had four projects at four studios. I worked super-hard on all of them, but ‘Twilight’ was greenlit first.

I’ve had a great run with great projects. I love the film industry. It keeps you young; it really does.

I want to pick good projects, I want to work with great directors and try not to put too much pressure on myself and just read things for the story and recognize when I’m drawn to something for the right reasons and try to maintain some sanity. Sanity would be good. I’d like to have a little sanity!
At our company, our Design and Construction Consulting Service Team not only helps eliminate the risks inherent in the construction process, they typically save our clients 5% – 10% on overall construction costs. They also help make sure projects come in on time.
I love the fans of genre. Genre fans are the best fans. They’re loyal, they’re dedicated, and they’re passionate about the projects. They get it on a cerebral level. Being a part of that culture and that world… It’s very gratifying and very fulfilling.
I was never really cut out to be a student, I prefer to actually work and get a project done and learn that way- but I have a huge respect for good teachers and even enjoy teaching…I am a conundrum!
The sunset looks beautiful over the projects…
What a shame, it ain’t the same where we stand at.
If you look close, you can see the bricks chipped off.
Sometimes niggas miss when they lick off.
What a shame, it ain’t the same where we stand at.
If you look close, you can see the bricks chipped off.
Sometimes niggas miss when they lick off.
I really want to do something in Europe. With a small movie, it can be an interesting challenge. But I have to get the right project. I don’t think it’s so important to go to Hollywood. All that trash that comes out of there! I don’t want to do that.
I love all the old pictures – of spanking and Bettie Page and corsets. But you can’t do spanking in fashion, so I wanted to do a project where I could really let go and get girls who also love those things.
Generally, I like people’s trunk projects, the things they were working on before anyone knew who they were. I think when people run out of their trunk items and they start doing stuff just to do a film next year, the quality goes down, the interest goes down. Maybe it feels commercial or something.
I enjoy being given a certain amount of freedom in order to interpret or to come up with stuff, but I do enjoy collaboration. I seek and thrive on projects where I am going to learn from the people I’m working with.
My ultimate life dream project is my kids. My family.
I’m a movement Nazi. It used to be my way before. Now, in the last three projects. I found a way to let the actors find their comfort and still find the precision in the show. It’s a change in me.
The problem with being a writer/director: unless you’re really disciplined, you start adding projects, and you have to make time to make them. Because you have to write them… no one else is writing them for me.
I have to say that I approach every project with the same energy. I also think that, since I started producing, I see the process from a different perspective, which affects the way I jump on board immediately.
I have a really small rear-view mirror in my life. I look at the rear-view mirror for memories and learning experiences, but I’ve got a big front windshield and I’m looking at right now. I’ve got so many projects on my plate.
I’ve found that sitting around and obsessing about projects moving forward, when there’s actually nothing I can do about it, at a certain point, is really counter-productive.

I simply constructed a project to try to snap Kurt [Cobain] out of a frame of mind. I sent him a plane ticket and a driver, and he tacked the plane ticket to the wall in the bedroom and the driver sat outside the house for 10 hours. Kurt wouldn’t come out and wouldn’t answer the phone.
All of my projects are done right because I know the game, and I consider myself a rap expert.
During the time I was on The Hardy Boys, I was also watching other people’s careers. I thought the next step was to be a movie star. I kept saying no to projects, and offers stopped coming in. I was no longer hot
I hate the idea of repeating myself. I need new perspectives and challenges for each project, and I’m very happy that many people are able to follow me without any problem.
For me, the most gratifying projects are ones that have the potential to bring people together – to overcome differences among various groups, and to spark dialogue.
I actually have very girly taste in television. I like a chicky relationship show probably more than anything. I really like ‘Project Runway’.
Sponsors, corporate endowments, and the heritage of the big fortunes would take care of financing cultural projects when American society was homogeneous. Now it’s too complex, it’s a mix. Different cultures in collision. I think it starts to be necessary to have a government institution to deal with cultural affairs.
The ontological concept of truth is in the centre of a logic which may serve as a model of pre- technological rationality. It is the rationality of a two-dimensional universe of discourse which, contrasts with the of thought and behavior that develop in the execution of the technological project.
We have good joint projects in the helicopter and aircraft manufacturing industry. We are considering cooperation and are actively cooperating in space. There are good prospects there [with China].
When I`m going to do a Christmas album I had to put my mind in Christmas mode. I had to go back to being a child and remembering all of that. When I go to do a project, I’m serious about it, so I wrap my world around it, and it becomes Christmastime for me and I’m singing songs like it’s Christmas day.
I need to find those projects more often: the ones that really, really speak to me. I do better work in those situations and have a better time.
My favourite book as a child was an old ‘Newne’s Children’s Encyclopaedia’ which my grandfather had bought just before World War II and donated to our family after seeing how interested we were in it. Each volume had special chapters called ‘Things Boys can Do.’ My brothers and I would pick out interesting projects.
The structure of the company is constantly changing. The composition of the necessary working groups is constantly changing. We have many divisions that are based on the project principle, which means that they are put together for each project.
The sin we commit against each other as women is lack of support. We hurt. We hurt each other. We hide. We project. We become mute or duplicitous, and we fester like boiling water until one day we erupt like a geyser. Do we forget we unravel in grief?
As audiences, when we are exposed to oral history projects not only do we learn but in some ways we also bear witness to that which we have not experienced personally.
The aim of art is to project an inner vision into the world.
I’d been doing projects outdoors for the public. I made pigeons eat geometry by putting bread out in rhomboids and triangles. I don’t know if this activity made sense, but the work was available.
I’ll be totally honest in that I feel tremendously lucky that I am offered incredible jobs all the time to direct, but the problem that I have just personally is that there are only so many years in my life to dedicate to certain projects.
I’m certainly grateful that there were projects that I did that people responded to. It would be a nightmare if it were the other way around. But it’s sometimes a little disheartening.
I realized that people don’t quite understand what I do when I was the new kid on the block and a lot of Hollywood was offering me fairly cheesy projects.
Every time I’ve gotten myself into trouble, it’s because I’m choosing a project based on a long-term career goal as opposed to something that speaks to me at the moment.
I need to thank my director, producers, and artists as well crew members of all my projects.
If something – if you have a good rapport then you’re friends and you’re offered projects together or you discover stories together. Jennifer and I discovered this story together, and it was evident to us we would only do it with each other.
I’ve been compiling a list of art project ideas for a long time. These are ideas of things I would love to see someday. They range from the practical – jackets with woodstoves in them – to the sublime – images of nuns on waterslides.
I believe in preparation. As you already know we had to deal with many crews, 2 cameras. Also as I said we had to get many different actors because they tried to tamper with the project. I just liked doing the movie how I envisioned it. I wanted it to be my own.
My childlike qualities sometimes lead me to jump into projects without thinking of the consequences.
I think the only consistent thing is that I like projects that explore different social themes. ‘Our Family Wedding’ is a comedy, but it deals with two different cultures coming together. It’s also about people letting go.
With a project like ‘Teachers Lounge,’ you’re wearing a lot of hats, so it demands hard work and focus if you want to do it right.
There is one recurring, persistent, perennial, and dogging personal problem which, more than any other, steals the force and peace of people and ruins projects and enterprises and careers.В It is the habit of feeling hurt, because of what others do, or do not do and what they say or do not say
All our projects are like fabulous expeditions. The story of each project is unique. Our projects have no precedent.
At this time, my work on the SPS power supplies had just come to an end; I joined a study group on the pp project and an experimental team studying cooling in a small ring (ICE).
Something that I really enjoy doing is creating and being a part of very different characters and very different projects.
Pressure is something you feel when you do not know what you are doing.
I’d argue that everybody wants to do something that matters, and the fact that Linux has had a huge impact on the tech market and is used virtually everywhere is obviously very personally satisfying. I think programming is fun, and the community around the kernel is great, but a project has to be relevant too.
I have a strong sense that every project is an invention, which is not a word I hear being used in architecture courses
Never had I had so many friends and so much fun as I did in the projects.
I still love coming into work everyday after so many years working as an actress. I’ve been working more or less continuously and I find I have to really want to do the project to make it work because you have to put such an enormous amount of effort into it.
The more you focus on control, the more likely you’re working on a project that’s striving to deliver something of relatively minor value.
It is not the project but the living process that will be the measure of our actions.
I try not to think in terms of what poems or poets should do. Most of us appreciate a wide diversity in music, in cooking, in movies, but in our own medium, poetry, we often fail to make allowances for tastes and projects other than our own.
In 2008, we began an initiative to outsource projects from our Israeli office to three companies in the Palestinian Territories.
Id love to have another film to go on to. Im in the mood to work. But I have to be patient, you know, to find that particular kind of project. Occasionally Ill write one myself if I can summon up the energy.
There’s a certain time in the core of making a movie from pre-production to halfway through post-production I don’t read any project, my agent will tell people that “he’s not reading.” And then when I know how the movie’s probably gonna work halfway into post-production, I’ll come along.
To me, work is not a burden but my main hobby. This is why I always take work with me when I go on holidays. Moreover, that’s when new projects occur to me: while contemplating beautiful landscapes or seascapes.
I’m drawn to projects where I play these really complicated characters, but also where I can have some type of influence on affecting what we see as societal norms.
IBM is helping to greatly advance and expedite quality sampling while providing our project investigators peace of mind that the information they are gathering is securely stored and protected.
The band projects just took natural priority. I didn’t really have a solo career, just wanted to share the music in another way and to learn more about writing, recording, etcetera.
The revolution will survive. It does not rely solely on oil for its survival. There is a national will, there is a national idea, a national project.
It turns out that we determine who our leaders are by unconscious undertones we all project with our voices – and of which we’re completely unaware.
We make a contract within ourselves as actors or directors or writers about how much of ourselves we let into projects. You can actually figure out before you work on something how much blood you will have to let emotionally.
My work is heavily influenced by critiques that many critical intellectual traditions, especially Critical Race Theory, have made of reform projects focused on legal equality.
It’s so important to create roles and characters and projects that feature black people in a way that’s not specifically targeted towards the niche market, which is, like, a black movie is created, and it’s produced and pitched so that only black people will watch it.
As part of Depeche Mode, I don’t think it’s right for me to be using my own songs for a solo project. I’m not a very prolific songwriter, so I keep those for Depeche Mode.
For me, it’s always been very essential to work on projects that one can work on almost for their entire life.
All progress depends on the unreasonable man.
People offer me loads of stuff, and some of it I like, but I just can’t do it because I can’t write it all. So I might get in the position where I have some sort of company and just write maybe the first episode, but these are love projects, in a way.
I just want to keep doing good projects with good people.
For film, I think because it’s more detailed, and especially with historical material, you really have to find the right projects. Speaking as a mixed-race woman, there aren’t many historical stories about people like me. When people think of ‘dual heritage,’ they think it’s a modern concept, but really it’s not.
I was supremely fortunate to do several projects that I’m really excited about. So within all that, there’s a lot going on this year. I’m excited about 2016.
Legislators are interested in their pet projects, getting re-elected, and popularity contests.
Are we so desperate for entertainment that we will fall for a Trickless magician?? Saw a woman in half. Pull a rabbit out of a hat. Do something! What tricks does this guy have? “I’m in a box…and I ain’t gonna eat.”. “I’m in a box… and I ain’t gonna eat!!” That ain’t no trick! That’s called living in the projects!
I’ve seen a lot of friends who have a lot of great projects, whether it’s a script or a play or whatever, and it is a great project and they have great people involved, and they can’t make it.
Has given me no choice but to advocate for the termination of this project.
We were developing an innovative Personal Information Manager called Chandler but a couple years ago I took off from that to do a project writing down my memoirs essentially, reminiscing about the development of the Macintosh.
I would like to work in any country in an interesting project. The country is not so important.
Children involved in project work are encouraged to serve the group needs and share responsibility for what’s accomplished.
They were creating a program on contemplative prayer called Be Still. They asked me to be a part of this project that was designed to help Americans see the importance of spending time before God in stillness. I knew immediately that God wanted me to be a part of the project.
Of course, it’s hard to support full-time programmers, so we do get funds from a set of companies that are interested in the health of the Mozilla project and so are willing to support the people working for the Foundation as well.
I project myself out through the glasses and across the street, a ghost in the morning sunlight, torn with disembodied lust.
The work is different in the sense that I haven’t had to travel round the world raising money, or work from the genesis of the project. But the collaboration feels clear always, it’s sort of my drug, I’m in it for the conversation. The conversation’s the most important part of it.
It’s not the style that motivates me, as much as an attitude of openness that I have when I go into a project.
I always try to take projects I’m genuinely interested and passionate about versus just trying to take projects for the money.
I have written things that Republicans and Democrats and all kinds of figures have either hated or felt very uncomfortable about. Because in doing these long projects and books, you get close to the bone. And they’re not calling me up and asking me for dinner.
‘The Client List’ is my baby. I always tell people, ‘It took nine months to put this project together because it is my baby.’ And, it really did take that long!
I have half a dozen designers who work for me, they ‘realise’ most of the design work, and I act as the design director and the main point of client contact on each project.
During the past two centuries, innovation has more than doubled our life span and given us cheap energy and more food. If we project what the world will be like 10 years from now without continuing innovation in health, energy or food, the picture is dark.
I undertake the same project as Montaigne, but with an aim contrary to his own: for he wrote his Essays only for others, and I write my reveries only for myself.
I’ve heard people say that ‘The Blair Witch Project’ is a feminist movie because there’s a woman in charge and I’ve heard it called a completely anti-feminist movie because this woman screws everything up. Who cares really? It’s just a movie.
I should like to enflame the whole world with my taste for gardening. There is no virtue that I would not attribute to the man who lives to project and execute gardens.
Of all the projects I’ve worked on, I’ve never worked with another director like Billy Friedkin. I think he’s a genius.
I think it is important to be present in the places where you are working. It is not only about doing a project, but following the project through its construction.
Most startups are not just built for the person who is using them. When you do that, every now and then you get really lucky and… are representative of some huge class of people who all want the same thing you do… but very often that just turns into a side project that doesn’t go anywhere.
I grew up playing with kids from Hurt Village, playing with kids from other housing projects, Lamar Terrace, because my grandmother lived in that particular area. So, I always wondered how I would have turned out if I would have lived in that particular given circumstance.
I have no idea. I get involved because I think there’s value in the project and because I love the character that is presented to me. I love the opportunity to examine a character, and to have him examine me, live inside me and move my hands. I love that. It’s irresistible. It’s a drug.
I’m for sure a workaholic. I’m a complete control freak and I take on way too many projects.
The good thing about the European Union is that the joint project ultimately benefits all Member States and not just a few.
People just project their idea of my character on to me and they just seem to assume that I’m the same, when in reality I’m not.
They’re not gong to give Hateful Eight its credit now, they’ll give it its credit later. Hateful Eight was too long. I think we’ve indulged Quentin [Tarantino] so much with his monologues. Quentin has this very strong cult following around him and his projects, and people are always expecting so much from him.
I got the job [in Moana project] about six months before we started rehearsals. No, seven and a half months before we started at the Public, and so, it’s been my ocean of calm throughout the Hamilton phenomenon.
I’ve been saying for almost 20 years that I need to do a jazz project and it ought to be either big band or I should do some jazz songs with a trio or quartet.
The 20th Century was a bloodbath, and for all the frustrations and failures of the project to unify Europe, the last five decades have been periods of unprecedented peace, growth, and prosperity in Europe.
It hasn’t really made it easier getting film work. It’s not like I can call up a studio or a producer and say – insert haughty voice here – ‘It’s Parker. I guess you might know me as the indie queen. I’m wondering if you have any projects for me to be in.’
I grew up in the projects with four older brothers. And there were tough, macho gangsters, drug dealers, killers, and thugs all in my neighborhood. And they were afraid of my mother. So, yeah, I know some strong women.
Everybody these days wants to be a star, including myself. Don’t get me wrong, I’m a chef but you want to market yourself and your projects.
My M.O. as far as choosing projects is I really try not to work. I try to not do the scripts that are offered me. I’m in this wonderful position to be able to do that.
In my district, the budget scales back and eliminates several long-term shore protection projects important to the safety and economic security of Long Island.
I was hired to do this one great script called ‘Cap’n Ricky’ and that project is up in the air at the moment.
We’ve run out of good projects. This is not a money issue… If these oil companies had fantastic projects, they’d be out there [developing new fields].
I love to get involved with projects that take me out of my comfort zone. I try to do things that are not necessarily what I’m used to. I always wanted to do a big animation movie and stick to the codes that this genre sometimes implies.
There are lots of good reasons to abandon a project. Having a little competition is not one of them.
We always project into the future or reflect in the past, but we are so little in the present.
I was very conceptual about what I was doing; I had the first five albums planned out, and all the songs on every album, and the artwork. I always had these ambitious musical projects in mind.
I’m a project-based photographer; I think in narrative terms, the way a writer thinks of a book, or a filmmaker a film.
We will also be funding projects that empower women and children in Afghanistan and now and then give scholarships to Afghan students here in the Bay Area.
I work on everything all at once, which is maybe the worst way to go about it. But I think that actually it works really well in terms of the serendipitous connections between all of these many different projects and these many different realms.
The local music community here was dying for a place to record, so we started doing acoustic, folk and bluegrass and then did rock projects for other bands, as well as for my son Tal and my own work.
Get an agent. Seriously, submitting stuff unagented means it will end up on the slush pile. An agent is the first quality filter, and a good agent is worth his or her weight in gold, as they’ll often know the editors on a personal level and will be able to talk to them directly about the project.
We are telling veterans they must sacrifice to pay for the pet projects and contracts to campaign donors of powerful members of Congress.
To do panels where you get to interact with your fans, in a really intimate, awesome way, and to let them ask all of the questions, is fun to me and it shows them that you care about their opinions, their thoughts, and their passion for your project.
I like starting projects in January. That’s the best time to start something. It’s so inward.
I began doing writing projects and art and design projects to explore a new way of seeing Canada. Roots is one more way of continuing this exploration. I want to present a wide-open Canadian sense of color, adventure, communication and openness that defines our country.
Acting is acting, but acting is different in almost always every project, and very, very different in this context.
Because there are now online databases of federally funded research, and these databases are searchable by keyword, sex researchers have to be careful how they title their projects. It’s become a simple matter, for those who are so inclined, to find and target researchers whose work they object to on religious grounds.
There’s a great place for good Christian children’s books. After the upcoming projects I’m working on, I’d like to turn my attention back to children’s books. Maybe with a granddaughter I’ll have more inspiration and new ideas.
If your project has real substance, ultimately the money will follow you like a common cur in the street with its tail between its legs.
Perfectionism is a time waster – 20 percent of the effort you put into any project accomplishes 80 percent of the outcome – so this is a time to ask yourself when good enough is enough and then stop.
Some documentaries are made by people who are driven more by one particular story, or have different backgrounds or ambitions, but I’m always looking for projects that let me be the best filmmaker I can be, and to be stretched and grow further.
I’m not someone who works a lot, and what I mean by that is that I have a project and I focus on it, and I don’t spread myself too thin. I try to give as much as I can to that project, and if we have a lot of time, that’s amazing for me, because I like to really dive deep and do as much as I can.
Not all of our work is dark, but when we are working on a dark project, we really tend to go there.
I suppose each project is a new thing, so there’s all this excitement and nerves about this new thing. Every single thing is like a new thing, so it’s never what I expect. I don’t know what to expect for the next thing. There are always different people. It’s interesting.
I like learning stuff. The more information you can get about a person or a subject, the more you can pour into a potential project. I made a decision to do different things. I want to do things that have a better chance of being thought of as original. I do everything I can to disrupt my comfort zone.
I like to work on a number of things simultaneously. If you’re working on a variety of projects and if you get stuck on one of them, you can move to another without grinding your gears indefinitely.
I was inspired by the Hole in the Wall project, where a computer with an internet connection was put in a Delhi slum. When the slum was revisited after a month, the children of that slum had learned how to use the worldwide web.
If you fall out of favor, you quickly stop being part of the conversation. But it can take one great project to turn things around. All you need is one hit or one great idea well-executed, and everybody’s talking about you again.
Every person who sees you physically evaluates you and projects energy towards you based upon the way you’ve dressed.
The common erotic project of destroying women makes it possible for men to unite into a brotherhood; this project is the only firm and trustworthy groundwork for cooperation among males and all male bonding is based on it.
It’s true. We’re really working hard to make Incline Lake a reality, but that doesn’t mean that we’re not focused on other projects to improve the basin – sometimes big projects.
I don’t need to work right away. I’d rather wait for something really good; to be excited about a role, or a director, or a project.
You know, it’s going to be a really long tour, and well, I guess I’ll see what happens with A Perfect Circle, ’cause they do other projects too, and I don’t know. I hope I can always do a lot of different things, do ’em well.
When you start a new project, you wonder whether it’s the right choice.
Let’s embrace more of life, not less. Balanced people don’t change the world, and I’d rather spend my time feeling worn out from meaningful activities and projects.
Weddings are giant Rorschach tests onto which everyone around you projects their fears, fantasies, and expectations – many of which they’ve been cultivating since the day you were born.
I’m not sure that you can say definitively that some roles are better filled by consultants, but I would say that some projects are better handled by consultants.
I prefer consider Stromae as a collective project. Stromae is not me. Or at least it is not only me.
When you take on a project, you have to be certain that you can make the best version of whatever it is youre given.
I love interacting the fans and try to answer questions that people have. And I love when people are excited about projects, so. I am just a tweet away.
It’s a pretty intuitive process, picking the projects that I want to get involved with.
the desert breeds reserve. It is so big that one’s own plans and projects seem too little to be talked about. Also, there is so much time to say anything that one continually puts it off and ends by never saying it at all.
It seems that film-makers are being divided between those working in digital and those who are not. I think it’s not something predetermined – it all depends on what project we have in mind, and on that basis we choose the medium.
Maimonides taught that it is better that 10 criminals go free than let one innocent man be executed. The Innocence Project represents that point of view.
Any project that I find encouraging that isn’t attached to a studio, I can go to them, which I definitely would. You have to take an interest in what you do.
Asian people have a unique way about them and a different sense of beauty. It’s exotic to me. I like they way Asians project their feelings. There’s a hardness to the culture, but at the same time there’s a delicateness.
I love watching reality shows – I’m up to date with ‘America’s Next Top Model’ and I love ‘Project Runway.’ But the shows where they’re just sitting in a house aren’t as fun to me!
Voice acting is very interesting, I’ve done several animated projects, and you have to make the voice reflect the character and try and do as much with a word as you can with a look in a live-action film.
If you don’t have that trust in the backbone of the project, you may not know what you’re making.
A lot of projects I do be all ‘real’ music.
For me as a filmmaker, I do the projects I’m really excited about.
I feel that the whole Western World will benefit by the resurrection of the neutron bomb project.
For me, the greatest kind of success that I’ve had on a particular project or in exploring a role does come through collaboration. I wouldn’t want to do a movie where everything I do the director just says, “Good job” and I’m under directed.
A good movie is made by an initial burst of energy, the way that, when you are in school, your class exercises are always better than your final projects.
I’ve been involved with some huge studio projects that have been bloody awesome. It all starts with a great script, doesn’t it?
Persistence is important in every endeavor. Whether it’s finishing your homework, completing school, working late to finish a project, or “finishing the drill” in sports, winners persist to the point of sacrifice in order to achieve their goals.
We do not project power from bankruptcy court. We’re borrowing a million dollars a minute.
You make your first album, you make some money, and you feel like you still have to show face, like ‘I still go to the projects.’ I’m like, why? Your job is to inspire people from your neighborhood to get out. You grew up there. What makes you think it’s so cool?
Violating human rights is integral to the project of neoliberalism and global hegemony.
We have a project with Unocal here in Los Angeles, where we as an environmental organization, the oil company, and the state all get together to promote the recycling of used motor oil.
Concentration is the magic key that opens the door to accomplishment. By concentrating our efforts upon a few major goals, our efficiency soars, our projects are completed we are going somewhere.
The Christian sees the world as a transitional home badly in need of rehab, and we are active agents in that project.
I love the producer, Joel Rice. We worked together years ago putting a project together.
I am constantly thinking ahead to what I want to write about in the future, and when I’m done with one project, I give myself a little time and then start the next one.
I want to make films that make a difference. I want to be out and hope that that will make things better for gay people and for myself. I hope one day I can start to make the kind of projects or be involved with kind of projects that can really make a difference
All improvement happens project by project and in no other way.
I like to surprise myself. I’ve always been attracted to projects where I don’t know how they’re going to turn out.
You know, ‘Project Runway’ was a really special show, and we had a great five seasons with it. We loved that show, and we loved the stories that it brought to Bravo and the creativity. And it was a magic five seasons.
To middle-class parents, the project team may have seemed unfit for children, but it was exactly what I needed.
I was desperate to work with Stuart Immonen, who I have talked with for several years about doing a project together. So just the stars aligned. I knew that Stuart had a little break in his schedule, where he would be willing to do a project with me. So this year I’ve been very lucky.
Confrontation is something that I accept as part of the project though not its purpose.
In terms of form, all the projects interest me equally, although there are obviously large differences according to the scale and process of each project.
If a film is a huge hit, you do think properly before choosing your next projects.
As a producer, I think one of the most important decisions you make is not necessarily the material you are working on but the production apparatus that you choose to develop the project with, and that determines what funding you go to, it determines many factors.
The number of teachers and guides that a soul has depends upon what it seeks to accomplish and its level of awareness. Souls that take upon themselves projects of more magnitude bring to themselves more assistance.
Getting to share a project with Anthony Hopkins is incredible. It’s like watching Da Vinci paint or something – you’re reminded why you do what you do.
Good planning is the foundation of success for almost any project. Start by getting clear on your goal.
The Trevor Project is committed to providing all young people, regardless of sexual identity, the opportunity to be heard and the encouragement to be themselves.
I always gravitate towards the independent side of things, just because those are the stories I always fall in love with, but you don’t really get paid, and living in Los Angeles is expensive, and I have a mortgage to pay. So it’s good to jump onto a studio film and then in all my other time do small passion projects.
In Germany, you would be hanged if you cracked a joke about Hitler and you would be killed by the state if you were insane in a project of euthanasia.
The root of any film project for me is this inner need to express something. What nurtures this root and makes it grow into a tree is the script. What makes the tree bear flowers and fruit is the directing.
When I moved to Los Angeles, my goal was to gain respect – whether it’s in big or small projects – and as long as the work is good I’m happy.
I don’t like necessarily that people think ‘Metal Gear’ defines me. I love ‘Metal Gear,’ don’t get me wrong. But as a creator, I really want to work on other projects, including new games.
The only projects that excite me have to be tied to some aspect of social change. No matter how beautiful, a coffee book doesn’t exactly move you to change the way you cook or eat.
I wish for you to stand up for what you care about by participating in a global art project, and together we’ll turn the world inside out. And this starts right now.
We should pray and seek for knowledge which would enable us to portray and project the things we love in music, in a way that might wholly or in some part, be appreciated as having been conceived and composed or performed and presented with dedication and in positive taste
The Fairness Project is endeavoring to try to do what we can to make a fairer society.
I’ve done other things, but it always seems like my sci-fi projects have been what people respond to the most, because those fans are extraordinary, so passionate.
I think there is a direct correlation between interest shown by a member of Congress on these projects and the progress that is made. I think it gives the Superfund effort some credibility, lets citizens know we are serious about these cleanups.
Taking on challenging projects is the way that one grows and extends one’s range as a writer, one’s technical command, so I consider the time well-spent.
Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research Centre is a genuine project and a living proof of generosity of the people of Pakistan.
Recognize when your peak energy occurs during the day. Allocate the most difficult projects to that period. Work on easy projects at low-energy times
I love working with new directors. There’s so much drive and effort. It still comes down to the character for me, but if it’s a character I really want to play, I would never not do the project because of a new director.
The objective of producing useful devices has strongly influenced the choice of the research projects with which I have been associated.
I would hate for someone to look at my shoe and say, ‘Oh my God! That looks so comfortable!’
There’ve been moments where I just was tired of being in L.A. It was very difficult. I mean, you’re constantly rejected. And that’s OK, it’s just really frustrating for me, because I try to read scripts and projects that have really great, deeper, meaningful qualities to them.
I try to pick interesting projects, the kind of projects that I would want to watch.
“Mansome” was one of those projects where it was a great change to do something fun and look at the subject in an engaging way. My next film is not going to be about pedicures.
Some of the best projects to ever come out of Atari or Chuck E. Cheese’s were from high school dropouts, college dropouts. One guy had been in jail.
They are damn good projects – excellent projects. That goes for all the projects up there. You know some people make fun of people who speak a foreign language, and dumb people criticize something they do not understand, and that is what is going on up there – God damn it!
As a director, I have to feel realism from actors, and they can’t be plastic. The words for me are secondary, but the chemistry between the actors is most important. However, you have to go by the script because it’s related to production, otherwise you will not finish your project.
I do not draw any of the pictures for my movies as an animator. The reason for that is that I am terribly lucky to have many staff members who I look up to, and who are overflowing with talent, that work with me on each project.
I grew up in Harlem Grant projects, and I didn’t have a whole lot then. I’ve always been good about only getting what I need, not what I want. Just because someone else has something, I don’t feel the need to.
We were looking to collaborate with someone on both those fronts [ writing and directing] and it ended up just being me [in Brief Interviews with Hideous Men]. So, at this point, it’s the epitome of a passion project and I just hope people like it.
The Venus Project is a concept that could happen today but it is not up to me, it depends on what others do to help bring it about.
I’ve spent years saying no to things. It’s important to be selective with both projects and partners.
I’ve always juggled a lot of projects because at least half the projects you do get shelved. So you have to do a lot of things in order for things to move forward.
When Libya was in turmoil in 2011, the Chinese public was surprised to discover that more than thirty thousand of their countrymen were living there, most of them working on Chinese-run oil projects.
When you smile and project an aura of warmth, kindness, and friendliness, you will attract warms, kindness, and friendliness. Happy people will be drawn to you.
We are trained to analyze problems and create solutions. We forget that marriage is a relationship, not a project to be completed or a problem to solve.
Marriage is a difficult project. When seven years have passed and all your body’s cells have been replaced, you’re meant to experience that seven-year itch.
Whenever you do an animated project or a voice-over project it’s inevitable that part of your personality comes into play.
Authors like reading. Go figure. So it’s not surprising that we sometimes bog down in the research stage of new writing projects.
My end goal is just to do projects at the end of the day that I’m proud of.
Every new development, highway, railroad, steamship line, building operation, whether it be a drainage project in old Greece or a new water system in Peru, means an added use of the automobile.
Ultimately it’s the public nature of those projects that I most enjoy. Museums are more than just places to view art, they’re also civic and social centers.
I felt for a long time that this is what I want to do so I’m happy at this point to just take my time and work on projects that I feel strongly about, and the rest of the time just live my life
Karma simply means that whatever type of energy you project, or you allow to pass through your being, you will become for a period of time.
Certainly I get a lot personally out of it as well, there’s the recognition and things like that but mostly I try to take that as an opportunity to explain why I hope we could see more projects like Apache out there and why it’s a good thing for society.
With each project, I’m going for something that makes viewers think, ‘Wow, I’ve never seen a film like this before,’ and later think, ‘Wow, I’ve only seen a film like this once before. I saw it in theaters and am watching it now on Netflix or a similar streaming service.’
Climbing, for me, is all about solving the magnitude of the problem. The best projects are the ones with big question marks hanging over them.
Human beings are co-partners with deity in the project of being. This is the basis of all magic.
There were open source projects and free software before Linux was there. Linux in many ways is one of the more visible and one of the bigger technical projects in this area, and it changed how people looked at it because Linux took both the practical and ideological approach.
I don’t make a habit of watching my parents’ films, because it is a little strange. But I will say that I binge watch ‘House of Cards’ compulsively, and I think it’s the first time I’ve ever seen one of my mom’s projects and totally forgot she was my mom!
I project that this next election – the 2016 election – if it is about anything thematically, it is going to be about that sense of rage and displacement among white working-class voters.
Never treat somebody’s cleverness as his life’s smartness. Cleverness is to hide the weakness and the smartness is to project the strength of his weakness.
To be honest, we donate to projects that we think are meaningful. How society views it or how we are viewed by history, well, we’ll let them decide. How others view us is out of our control.
Retire from your job but never from meaningful projects. If you want to live a long life, you need eustress, that is, a deep sense of meaning and of contribution to worthy projects and causes, particularly, your intergenerational family.
My temperament is not the adventuresome sort that enjoys starting new projects every six months. I love ensemble, nine-to-five stability. There’s a family dynamic in making a television show that you don’t get on a movie, where you’re a hired gun for a few months.
What gets projects done for me is not inspiration. It’s curiosity and rigor.
On the flip side, no one has any idea who the hell I am. I felt like I had to prove myself to them. On any new project I’m working on, the first week is nerve-wracking, but especially with these people that I admire so much and who I just want to be equal with.
To people in my industry I’m usually a guy that tries to generate his own projects and I remain very elusive when people try and attach me to big projects.
A great trick that I learned having worked as a screenwriter for many years, the way screenwriters work, is they break the project down into three-act structure: Act 1, Act 2, Act 3. I think that is a great way to break down any project, whether it’s a new business or anything at all.
Television and film acting is really fun because you are working with other people and you are not completely responsible for the outcome of the project.
My brain is a big cluster of stuff. It moves quickly and loses focus quickly, so I need many projects to keep me stimulated – it’s a luxury to be able to do lots of different things: style, write, present, DJ or just consult. It can’t be any other way; I think I would shrivel up and fall asleep forever.
However depressed I may be I am not in the habit of giving up a project without having tried everything, even the ‘impossible’, to gain my end.
Listening is active. It’s like vision. It’s like the idea of the eye projecting light, which I’ve heard is what children and infants say when they’re asked to explain vision – that the eye projects light, rather than just receives it.
After my first visit to Japan, in 1960, to work on a joint model building project at Osaka University, I maintained a continuing interest in the country and the entire Far East.
I have no idea what the next project will be and if there’s a next project. I don’t even know if we’re all going to be here tomorrow, but I’m pretty optimistic.
Men, through the ideas they have, project a field of attention that limits women.
I feel like because I’ve done more gay characters, gay scenes, or gay projects than most straight actors, people see it as some sort of mission. It’s more of a case-by-case basis, and just trying to capture figures that I love. I guess that a lot of the figures that I love were gay.
The instruments, glassware, and chemical reagents necessary for my project were the same as my 19th-century predecessors had.
Juggling many projects and having all these accidental collisions that you can’t predict enables a kind of comparative thinking. To focus on a single project from beginning to end is extremely difficult, not just for me, but for many people.
NATO has a special relationship with countries far away from Europe: Australia, Japan, South Korea. They have joint projects and programmes which are being implemented without these countries becoming members of NATO.
For minority actors, developing our own projects has to be the eventual path. We have a lot of stories to tell and a really unique voice. But none of that is going to be heard as long as we’re just the hired hands, acting.
Globally, the highest number of irrigation projects are in India, and within the country, the highest number is in Maharashtra.
Every book is a new journey. I never felt I was an expert on a subject as I embarked on a project.
The chances of running out of yarn on a project are directly related to the difficulty that you will have getting more.
Foreign aid projects have pumped billions of dollars into the Afghan economy.
In Japan, I have my own line of dinnerware, but I’m not aggressive about pursuing those projects.
Every project is different. When I’m working on my albums, I’ve worked with different producers and they’ve all had different personalities. The recording studio sets the vibe, and that changes as well.
It is important to consider whether the sample size selected by the Environmental Genome Project will provide sufficient power to discover most alleles relevant to gene-environment interactions.
I experienced how foreign aid for large-scale vaccination projects helps to save the life of children and thus give a real input to growth and to escaping poverty.
I already have a production company called J Squared and we’re working on two projects.
Being consistent is way less interesting than being yourself. And if you’re not interesting? Good luck with your Big Consistency Project.
When government ‘creates jobs’ by taking money from the private sector and ‘investing’ in favored projects, it is not truly productive activity. Rather, the government has preempted the economic process, forbidding it to serve consumers so that it can instead serve the objectives of politicians and bureaucrats.
I would like to see policy makers and international donor agencies realize that it is not enough to give money for demonstration projects. From the very beginning plans should be made for the scaling-up of successful innovations.
What we want… is for students to get more interested in things, more involved in them, more engaged in wanting to know; to have projects that they can get excited about and work on over long periods of time, to be stimulated to find things out on their own.
We believe that the future for content-creators such as ourselves lies in being able to source project money from an audience and deliver on those projects in a timely and cost-effective manner.
If we are in earnest about giving the Union energy and duration we must abandon the vain project of legislating upon the States in their collective capacities.
As movies and TV projects come up, they go out to the agents and we just go out and audition for them.
Developing projects of my own and producing and writing and directing is something that’s very interesting to me, but you know, one step at a time and you’ve got to establish yourself on one side before you really have the power to do something else. That’s always the immediate goal.
Netflix has such a knack for giving a new life to those B-movies that you thought and hoped no one would ever see. Especially when you have a new project coming out and they’re looking to mine some of your lesser-known films.
For most of the projects I’ve worked on, I’ve been entrusted with some degree of musical responsibility, even if it’s just like coaching for vocals and stuff.
Cosmic reveries separate us from project reveries. They situate us in a world and not in a society. The cosmic reverie possesses a sort of stability or tranquility. It helps us escape time. It is a state.
I have found, unfortunately, that if I take on too many projects at one time, there is a higher probability of those projects sucking.
Many men have deep rooted problems regarding the status of women, and during sex these problems come out. They consciously or unconsciously project anger and hate towards women they have sex with. This energy enters a woman’s subtle physical body and damages it.
Success is a project that’s always under construction.
In the film business, when you’re young, you just want to work. But when you’re older, it has more to do with who’s involved with the project – who you’re going to get in the boat with.
I had a conversation with Nick Barrucci, and he said he thought I’d be a good fit for this project. It was just that simple! Once I learned what Kurt Busiek, Alex Ross, and Jack Herbert were doing for Kirby: Genesis, though, I was even more on board.
Abandoning the project was incredibly stressful after having gone through the process of building the room, installing the kiln, collecting the stones, sitting with the kiln day and night as it came to temperature, experiencing the failures.
What saved the economy, and the New Deal, was the enormous public works project known as World War II, which finally provided a fiscal stimulus adequate to the economy’s needs.
I worked on human rights projects in Haiti, Cameroon, and East Asia, and the bigger ones tended to do with agriculture. My role was to make sure that there was equity that remained at the base of those projects, with the workers. I had a couple of different lives.
I think always what happens when you ask men questions on the red carpet, it’s always based on what projects they’re working on, whatever they’re about, rather than this, ‘Give us little tips for all of us women’… because we’re all the same. Questions should just be more individual.
Architects often have a mindset where you solve a problem, so you have a set of needs that you have to address. Often I feel that my projects have to have concrete applications.
Even though the industry is very big and there’s lots of money, when it gets down to it, whether it’s a photographer or a designer, as well as a stylist or makeup artist, you’re really only working with maybe four or five people on a project. It’s all quite small and intimate.
I like all my work equally. I look at the projects as children. I look at the experience more than the end result.
I am such a pessimist that every project has surpassed what I envisioned.
We all find ourselves involved in projects or activities that confound us-when or why did I say I would do this? What was I thinking? I needed a poem for myself that said-pause longer. Think again.
I think about all these influences and musical cultures, then the opinion of the audience is of course important, but when I’m working on an album or a new project, I’m not all the time thinking about what the audience will think about it.
Freedom Summer, the massive voter education project in Mississippi, was 1964. I graduated from high school in 1965. So becoming active was almost a rite of passage.
A writer’s problem does not change. He himself changes and the world he lives in changes but his problem remains the same. It is always how to write truly and having found what is true, to project it is such a way that it becomes a part of the experience of the person who reads it.
There are hundreds, even thousands of remarkable pilot or experimental projects in all fields – in agriculture, health, education. But where do these pilots take us? Do they lead to change on a broader scale? If not, how can we ensure that they have broader impact?
Today, our sexuality is an open-ended personal project; it is part of who we are, an identity, and no longer merely something we do.
You’ve no future unless you add value, create projects.
I used to read a lot about myself and the projects I was doing. When I was only acting, I wouldn’t read any reviews because I didn’t find them to be very helpful.
The fact that a thirteen-year-old project still resonates and can still have a large exhibit with lots of newspaper, magazine and TV press shows the timelessness of the project.
NEPA’s common sense approach to foster discussion and collaboration about major development projects has worked well to protect our national treasures and resources.
I like to do projects that challenge me, and hopefully in turn challenge the audience, or open your eyes to something you’re not aware of.
Slow down and make building relationships as important as building projects.
I just like to choose projects that will allow me as an artist to make my art.
My days are kind of controlled by my projects, so sometimes they’re album covers. Sometimes they’re commission portrait shoots. Sometimes they are editorial, so it kind of – I don’t dictate it.
I really have no preference between TV and film. I think that each individual project is its own thing and has a very different style.
If you believe in the project, you have to support it.
Never would I have thought that I would meet Mick Jagger, much less be working on the same project.
I was just a kid selling monster stories to the kids in the projects, complete with a dramatic reading, making the werewolf sounds. My career was aborted early on because one of my main customers started to have nightmares and his mother came to my mother and my mother shut down my whole business.
I’m fascinated with genetic science, and I have been for a very long time. I always look at science and technology because I think that the developments in my lifetime have been so remarkable – and we’re only at the tip of the iceberg with projects like decoding the human genome.
There’s competition in every field, and that’s healthy. It makes you work harder and be your best. Competition, not in terms of money or number of projects, but in the quality of your work, is very healthy.
There are a couple of projects that are sort of on the plate; I haven’t closed any of them yet. I’m trying to figure out which one is going to be the best one for me.
I’m excited that I get to do what I love, and I’m benefiting through projects that speak to me.
Hi,” Kami said to Dorothy, the head librarian…”Can you tell me where I could find the books on Satanism?” Twenty minutes later, she had Dorothy convinced that it was for a school project, and she really did not have to telephone Kami’s parents.
I’m always trying to find something unique or a project that I can do something unique in.
The overall view of the human genome project has been one of great excitement and positive press, but there are people who have concerns that are quite reasonable, and they are frightened of things they don’t understand.
Many of the projects I’m most proud of are tall buildings, especially the housing projects. In New York I have two: one in Kips Bay and one at New York University. At that time, those projects were most challenging.
I think change needs to be egoless. It’s not about my leaving my fingerprints or a legacy. It’s more important to be part of a process by rolling up your sleeves, being on the ground, initiating projects, starting campaigns – you know, building stuff.
Project your mind into your subject until you actually live in it.
I went from the projects to a real house. It was a big difference.
Fear only exists when you do not understand that you have the power to project thought and that the Universe will respond.
We only take on projects that we’re really passionate about.
South Australia has transformed. There has been a range of changes to our economy over the past 10 years in which we have genuinely set ourselves up for the future. I think we have to start behaving like that’s real and project a quiet confidence in the future of our state.
Although I am a young leader, I actually came to it strangely quite late. I have a different perspective, partly because of my family, partly because of what I did for ten years: negotiating trade deals, working out in Central Asia doing assistance projects.
I know now that I want to do more voice-over projects. They really have the ability to transport you into the world of whatever movie it is you are working on.
If you don’t have a brilliant screenplay, then you either have amazing actors who give you the chance to improve whatever is on the page, or an interesting director who has enough faith in the project that they can carry it through and get it somewhere. One of those factors needs to happen. If not, it’s sad.
I’m sort of suspicious of most economic development projects, but the ones that encourage taxpayer-funded relocation bidding wars should be declared unconstitutional.
It would have been possible to structure my photographs in such a way that no indicators of the present were discernible. However, I wanted to incorporate into the project as a whole the jostling of time-frames I would feel as I set up my tripod on various rocky promontories.
I like a lot of different kinds of music. I like strong projects, big music.
After 4 years on NYPD Blue it has been nice to have the summer off and spend time with family and friends. There are a few projects I am interested in and plan to be working this fall.
I feel guilty if I’m not reading books, but I read scripts of movies or things that I know I’m committed to that I’m going to do the project. I tell myself, “I’m going to read this script like six times,” and I only read it the initial time.
Whether we like to admit it or not, as artists, we do project our own worldview on to what we do.
Well it kind of is project to project because as a writer I think you always write to some degree about things that you know or things that happened – but my favourite filmmakers, my favourite movies of theirs tend to be the personal movies.
I’m kind of balanced between excited about the potential of the project, and the knowledge that I shouldn’t get my hopes up. I like to be practical, and the truth is, these deals fall apart all the time.
If you look at the history of communication, new technologies like the phone and e-mail didnt just let people do things faster; it fundamentally changed the scope of the kinds of projects people dared to take on.
Capitalism is a wonderful economic engine, but it assigns little value to long-term projects or societal problems.
Before I start a project, I always ask myself the following question. Why is this book worth a year of my life? There needs to be something about the theme, the technique, or the research that makes the time spent on it worthwhile.
Staying focused on a project or plan is one of the most difficult challenges we face. There is always the house to clean, calls to make, laundry to fold, deadlines to meet. Actually, there is only one thing that keeps us from our goals – lack of focus. And very often, lack of focus is caused by fear.
If we are hungry enough for God, we will find a way into His presence. We should be so hungry for the presence of God that we absolutely will not go out of our house or tackle any kind of project until we have spent some time with Him.
Everybody has a down day, no one’s perfect; no one’s having the most idyllic life. I mean, I guess everybody wants to project positivity to the outside world, but if we’re honest, no one’s going to have 24/7 bliss.
We think about project’s public nature and how that can be enhanced, how the spaces we create can enliven the experience of being there.
I had worked so hard on three projects 1997 that it knocked the gas out of me. It was a mystery to the medical profession, but you can test positive for Epstein-Barr and not have it. When you get a post-viral syndrome, for some people it causes chronic fatigue or hearing loss. For me it became light sensitivity.
I think IT projects are about supporting social systems – about communications between people and machines. They tend to fail due to cultural issues.
If I were to say that I grew up in East Los Angeles in the projects poor, I assumed that everybody understood that it came with its own reasons for being the way I am. I didn’t get that people needed to understand where my comedy came from; I thought that they knew that. Now I tell people.
How hard it is to project oneself into the future. We are always prone to think of the conditions which are with us today as being permanent conditions.
Studios are an assembly line. They can be a very good assembly line. As a producer, you concentrate on one project at a time. As an executive, you’re in charge of a slate.
Without dreams we would be cows in a field, and I don’t want to live like that. I live my life or I end my life with this project.
And what I liked the most about any project was that when it was good, you had a bunch of people trying to accomplish something together who were all acting together as one – that’s the most exciting time for me.
The genres are widening. I don’t think that there’s as many limitations on the kinds of projects that actors can do as there once was.
I think I’m built like a painter. I have friends who are painters and they reflect a similar psychological attitude towards their work. They don’t know what’s coming next, they just wait for the message, for orders to come and then off they go on their next project.
It doesn’t matter to me if it has a surprise ending or not. I usually go for the material or the project.
Success is completion. Success is being able to complete what we set out to do – each individual action, each specific step, each desired experience whether a big project or a very small errand.
My mistake was to project my skill beyond the limits of experience. I began investing outside the industries which I believe I thoroughly understood, in completely different spheres of activity; situations where I did not have comparable background knowledge.
I’m living in the moment. I just try to move each of the stories, scripts and projects that I work on forward. And when they’re ready and the people are ready to make them, we’ll do that.
When you have these surprise breakout films that do well, that have good performances in them, it puts a lot of pressure on the Academy to recognize those projects, so it’s more of a conversation about what is greenlit.
I need to start honing in on projects that I want to devote my time to and not put my energies into the unattainable ones.
My instinct is to keep people guessing. I think as an actor your greatest strength is your versatility, I suppose. The blanker the canvas, the easier it is to project the illusion of a character onto it. I think there are many actors who do that very successfully.
The director, MoisГ©s Kaufman, just received the national medal of the arts from President [Barack] Obama . He wrote and directed The Laramie Project and he has directed several Pulitzer prize-winning plays. He’s a pretty profound director in the theater.
I’m selfish when it comes to work. I’m like, “Oh, that will be fun! I wanna do that!” I never think beyond my participation in a project.
My first love is writing and producing. So I sometimes put my own stuff off to work on other people’s projects.
I’ve been very lucky to work on a wide variety of projects, including two long-run and top-10 dramatic television shows. That is why it is so important to offer a helping hand to the next generation of young Latinos coming up behind me.
Eventually, I thought that it’s interesting to make some rules for yourself while you’re working on one project so it sounds different from the other stuff you do.
Having viewed slum clearance projects in most major cities of the world may I state that you have conceived and created in the Johannesburg townships what is probably the most impressive and adequate resettlement activity in existence.
Most actors have a process that they can go through, that they rely on, or that they’ve discovered, and that can evolve from project to project.
My favorite TV show of all time is ‘The Wire,’ which has the feeling of a project-based show. You draw in people from disparate parts of the world, and they have to work together to achieve a goal.
I actually like snakes! When I was young, I was a boy scout nature camp counselor, and one of our projects was collecting snakes and creating an environment for them, so I’m quite familiar with snakes and think they’re fantastic creatures.
With every project, you feel like you’re trying to find your place to vent. For any actor, that’s typically the feeling that drives you to do it.
I would only take a role that I know I’m comfortable in and I can do. I’ve turned down plenty of things because I’d feel it’s not me, and I wouldn’t want to come on someone’s project and flip that.
I see myself working, making a living and doing projects that I’m passionate about, regardless of the medium.
It’s not often as an actor you get to be involved with a project that seems to be on the right side of history.
Don’t start vast projects with half-vast resources.
Now, to describe the process of the Wrapped Reichstag, which went from 1971 to ’95, there is an entire book about that, because each one of our projects has its own book. The book is not an art book, meaning it’s not written by an art historian.
When I started writing the script I thought that maybe someone else would direct it, but then I started to fall for it so much that I left the other project and I put all my time on The German Doctor.
Katie Paterson introduced the project [ Future Library ] to a handful of writers at a very fine international literary festival in Denmark at the Louisiana Museum, I sent her an e-mail when I got back to Iceland, saying, “It’s a wonderful project.
When a doctor is performing an operation, his mind cannot be somewhere else. And it’s the same with actors. You have to commit yourself mind, body and soul to a project in order to do justice to it.
It’s absolutely crucial for the Democrats to have a sense of their history, of who they are, in order to be able to project their values and stand up for them.
To put it in layman’s terms, crazy is crazy. And crazy will find a way to do something crazy. Racist is racist. And racist people will find a way to project their racism onto the world.
All space projects push the frontiers of technology and are drivers of innovation.
In so far as the culture industry arouses a feeling of well-being that the world is precisely in that order suggested by the culture industry, the substitute gratification which it prepares for human beings cheats them out of the same happiness which it deceitfully projects.
Whenever I audition for something, if I get excited about the project I’m totally committed to it from that point on. But it can also be a long process, so when I eventually get given the part it’s then that I realise that I’ve actually got to do it and here comes the work!
Every time you start a project, you’re hopeful that the critics receive it warmly.
It’s a generational project just to get America to live up fully to its ideals and to have the kind of society where everybody has a shot, and every kid is getting a good education, and people are getting living wages, and they have decent retirement.
Recent demonstration projects have shown that with some Federal support, a little funding can go a long way toward ensuring that low-income children have access to good oral health care.
I want to pay my mortgage and go on vacation, so I love working. I want to be able to do independent projects as well, and being on a successful TV show allows you to do some other things.
I’m always reading. Here’s where an ebook reader really comes into its own. When I travel, it allows me to carry a huge chunk of my library with me. Usually, when I am writing one project, I am researching the next or beginning to pull together the material for the book after that.
All white-collar work is project work. The single salient fact that touches all of our lives is that work is being reinvented.
There are chakras in the hands; you’ve seen me use those quite frequently when I meditate. I project the shakti, the kundalini, through the chakras in the hands to people I meditate with.
They say I was a bad Batman, that it was my fault, that I buried the franchise. But the truth is, it was a big project. I was pretty intimidated in that world. I did the best I could in the situation I was given.
I’m never at a loss for new projects.
Society needs people who can manage projects in addition to handling individual tasks.
The whole point of ‘Acid Rap’ was just to ask people a question: does the music business side of this dictate what type of project this is? If it’s all original music and it’s got this much emotion around it and it connects this way with this many people, is it a mixtape? What’s an ‘album’ these days, anyways?
The person must be blind, indeed, who can not see, that here on earth a great project, a great plan, is executed, may work on the realization of which we participate as faithful servants.
People actually ask me why I bring in projects on budget and on time. It seems I am not living up to the fashionable genius role. I really enjoy when a project gets down to the wire, and through sheer force of will and faith in our process, we cross the goal line, when most people thought it impossible.
Maybe [success] is because I’m in China and I’m more open. Maybe it’s my independent behavior, or because I participated in certain projects. I have no idea.
Fast drivers can see no further than slow drivers, but they must look further down the road to time their reactions safely. Similarly, people with great projects afoot habitually look further and more clearly into the future than people who are mired in day-to-day concerns.
When I was living in the projects, I had a mop stick for my horse. I wanted to be Gene Autry or Roy Rogers, so I would ride my mop through the projects.
In today’s gig economy, where jobs have been replaced by ‘portfolios of projects,’ most people find themselves doing more things less well for two-thirds of the money.
Probably some of the projects I chose to do after that had more to do with what people thought of me. The industry was very open and probably hoping that I could do anything.
You work hard and you pray, and you do something where you know the energy around the project is right, but you never really know if it’s going to hit and resonate with audiences.
Every relationship should eventually become a long-term relationship. Any director that I meet now isn’t just a director. He’s potentially a friend, and someone I can call to do a project that I want or that I have. That’s what I mean when I say branding and developing yourself, as a business.
In an effort to devote more time, energy and focus to fewer projects, I’ve had to make some tough decisions, and one such decision was ‘retiring’ from ‘Speakeasy.’
If I get the opportunity to be an actor and do some cool, fun and interesting projects, I’m going to do that.
I’m someone who likes to keep busy, especially with projects that I find meaningful and fulfilling.
Animals in general have always been my passion, project, crusade – whatever you want to call it! The ocean is such a huge, beautiful thing that I feel like we all take for granted.
They’re reacting and that’s wonderful. It’s better than them sitting there doing nothing. I say make them react – do whatever’s in your power to move the audience, and if that’s where it is, and there where it is with America, sex and violence, then I say project it.
Fear of failure held me back from being a DIYer for many years, especially after a few early attempts at home improvement projects went awry.
If you find that your organization can’t make the hard decisions that Scrum demands, then high-risk, uncertain projects have very little probability of success in your organization.
You have different people who come into your life and they affect you in a way and leave an impact on you. Whether it’s projects or friends or directors, it’s just an opportunity that people give me.
It’s not what’s there that counts, it’s what’s projected and?it’s not what he projects but rather what the voter receives? It’s not the man we have to change, but rather the received impression.
When good things come in, my agent calls or sends me the script. But I allow them to sort through the offers so that I am not just sitting and reading everything because honestly, sometimes the scripts that appeal to me are projects that are not good projects, but I just really like the script or the characters.
For me personally, to hop onboard and use the amazing success and blessings in my life to pull off something like the 30/30 Project is awesome.
If you cannot be on the project each day to check on things, then you should not try and be your own contractor.
The age of the skyscraper is gone. This is the age of the housing project. Which is always a prelude to the age of the cave.
There are those special projects that don’t ever feel like work but just a blessing to be a part of, and ‘Revolution’ is one of those projects.
I never go about a new project as if I’m trying ot redefine myself. I just like to work, and I’m excited by material I find challenging and – if it’s a comedy – exceptionally funny.
You can never really tell, it’s kind of a red herring until you see the project I think. You just know if you like working with someone or not, and he does have a real sweetness about him, I think.
Great projects, like great careers and relationships that last, are gardens. They are tended, they shift, they grow. They endure over time, gaining a personality and reflecting their environment. When something dies or fades away, we prune, replant and grow again.
I don’t want to look back at my career and see a string of incredibly commercial projects that don’t have much heart. I’m looking for things that have soul.
I believe that there are many interesting projects that are potentially possible for me other than game music, and therefore in my mind there are several things that are being contemplated.
When I connect to my soul, project it into another #‎ character , and then bring it to the stage or to a film–that has always been for me the great joy of #‎ acting . It’s been as if my soul kind of leaps out of my body and is able to be free and dance around.
For me to start working, projects have to catch my attention whether they are here (in the USA) or in Mexico. All I want is to be involved in projects that are interesting to me, projects that are a challenge wherever they may happen, in Spain, in China, or in Hollywood.
It took three years to put Shakespeare’s words together, there were a lot of words to be studied and a lot of words to be sorted out, and it proved to be a major project.
The Venus Project is not about new cities or new architecture. It’s about a way of thinking
Sorry, but there is no pleasure in finding new ways of saying the same stuff about projects which tanked.
I’ve been very fortunate as a composer to be involved with projects that have really propelled my scores forward. I’m very proud of it.
Men despise great projects when they do not feel themselves capable of great successes.
Material comes all kinds of ways, and it’s never a question of a lack of material or a lack of projects – I have tons of projects. The issue is to convince someone to give you the money. And it’s a very different business than it was just 8 years ago.
I’ve enjoyed all of the roles I have played for different reasons, which is the great thing about acting. You love different projects for different reasons.
I am proud to be part of a community that only projects love and education and the support of one another.
Each one projects his own defects over the others, each one see in other his own defects.
The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man.
I’d already started directing short films when we were doing ‘Lord of the Rings,’ then videogame projects.
Well I’ve got lots more great TV projects in the pipeline.
Compassion isn’t some kind of self-improvement project or ideal that we’re trying to live up to. Having compassion starts and ends with having compassion for all those unwanted parts of ourselves, all those imperfections that we don’t even want to look at.
Just, as I have traveled around from school to school, whether it’s project-based learning or an outward bound curriculum, it’s very hard to tell the difference between charters and public anymore. There’s no fine line.
I’ve recorded lots of projects, but just haven’t bothered to release them.
You shouldn’t be afraid of failure – when something fails, you think, ‘What did I learn from that experience? I can do better next time.’ Then kill that project and move on to the next. Don’t get disappointed.
Well, a special screening was set up for government officials, so they didn’t have to see the experience of going to see the film. They certainly aren’t going to the projects to see for themselves the situation.
I always think that the project I’m working on will be the best.
Every so often a book comes along that has the power to alter the course of history. Project Animal Farm is that potent.
It’s really fun to go back and forth from acting projects to directing projects. You don’t have as much responsibility when you’re acting, but you have more fun. But then you miss having that responsibility, and so you go back and torture yourself and make a movie.
Let me tell you, if I could pick the project of all projects, it would probably be Kate Gosselin because if I can help Kate find a man? I can help anybody!
I grew up in the projects and I know how important it is for kids to have hope.
Shall I project a world?
I do pick my projects very meticulously. I want my projects to be meaningful.
My work is one of my passions, so I want to treat it with great importance, whatever the project or role.
One of the traditional methods of imposing statism or socialism on a people has been by way of medicine. It’s very easy to disguise a medical program as a humanitarian project, most people are a little reluctant to oppose anything that suggests medical care for people who possibly can’t afford it.
Fashion is not like the movie business, where you can have two great projects in a row and then say, “You know what? I’m going to take off eight months.” What am I going to tell people? Wear last year’s clothes?
Getting a project started is like moving a ship. It takes a lot of energy to build up momentum.
We must go through every area of the federal budget to isolate waste and abandoned projects.
I grew up in the projects in Brooklyn, and I consider myself lucky and blessed to be where I am – just working.
I guess confidence is the only thing that I take from project to project, but I’m always open to learning everybody’s style – the director, the actor I’m working with.
I wake up every day and think about what I am to other people. What I am to the people I employ, who depend on me to wake up and do my job that day and keep this career going? I think about what I am to the kids who listen to my music and all the other people involved in this project.
I guess what I get excited about when I’m thinking about projects is that toothy, complex area of goodness and badness and the gray areas of human behavior and existence.
We are pushing towards the dream of having our independent state with Jerusalem as its capital. If there is a real project that aims to resolve the Palestinian cause on establishing a Palestinian state on 1967 borders, under full Palestinian sovereignty, we will support it.
The greatest thing has been that projects that were pipe dreams before ‘Whiplash’ are now feeling more realistic.
I went to a Catholic high school and it seemed like every time I drew something for a class project, it either got thrown away by the teacher or something.
It is always easier to talk about change than to make it.
Entrepreneurs usually don’t listen to people. Trust them to do their job. Remember, you invested with the understanding the project was likely to fail.
I seem to enjoy making my life miserable by taking on too many projects and always wishing I could put more time into all of them.
When I talk to some of the younger filmmakers, they are so worried about their films that, eventually, this state of being worried reflects itself in and helps the final work. Whereas, with projects that are meticulously planned, you look at the end result and it is full of emptiness.
We really enjoy that, having a relationship with writers, developing material and getting a director, actors, that we have kind of that family kind of as a group we’re going to do it together mentality in a project. Then the tough part is – so what actually goes has very little to do with us sometimes.
I am confident that I am capable of leading projects, which are even complex.
I’d love to do a film with Michael Fassbender. He’s one of my heroes. I think he’s absolutely amazing and I would love to do a project with him.
Is there a better example of natural selection in action than ‘Project Runway?’
I read a lot of books. Here are the books I’m using for my 9/11 project. [Wright gestures to three six-foot-long shelves of books.] As I read them I highlight certain passages. Then I have an assistant write down each quote on an index card and note where it came from.
Generally, Hollywood makes the same stories over and over. I’ve never wanted to do the same thing twice. If a script doesn’t surprise me in some way, I simply can’t commit to the project.
I’m not sure I’ll find acting satisfying creatively forever. If you get the good roles, it’s great – if you have the freedom to choose your projects and not just do anything and everything.
I’m a project guy, but when my list of things to do gets too long or involved, it can stress me out to the point of catatonia. So I focus on the small stuff first and keep the larger picture as motivation – but not so close that it overwhelms.
My husband has no desire to work with me. He gets paid a lot of money to write giant movies. He’s not into humoring me with my projects.
For the last 30 years our cinemas have been ruled by science fiction and horror. We’ve had some very good Fantasy films in that time period, but for my tastes I still haven’t seen fantasy done to absolute perfection. That is the hope I have in this project.
I think that because I’m overweight, [my] fantasy was lightness. So I project my fantasy to the clothes, and now all I do is light, light clothes because it’s the one thing I don’t have. That is why I’m too afraid to lose weight because then I might make heavy clothes.
I’m in a position to work on good things. I’ve worked on shitty projects, in the past. But, it is what it is. I’m just taking it as it comes.
I like the team effort of everyone pulling together to make one good project.
I do mostly British projects, and for family reasons and life reasons Britain’s my home, where I have a lovely garden.
I get beat up on every project.
Obviously, despite hard work and heroic efforts, many dreams don’t come true. But if we don’t dare to dream and then throw muscle, heart, and soul into making the dream come true, then WoW Projects-and all of the emotional, intellectual, spiritual, and financial riches that they bring will surely NOT be our lot in life!
Modernism in architecture went hand in hand with socialist and fascist projects to rid old Europe of its hierarchical past
I’ve been taking my time now between projects looking for stuff that has a little bit more substance, that isn’t surface. Some of the films that I’ve done in the past really were surface.
I get involved with projects based on three parameters – the script, the actors involved and the director.
I find men’s clothing fascinating because sometime between, say, 1930 and 1936 a handful of basic shapes were created and still prevail as a sort of scale of expression, with which every man can project his own personality and his own dignity.
I just want to try and be in projects that are exciting to me.
Elia Kazan. He wrote my favorite book about filmmaking, ‘Elia Kazan: On Directing.’ There is a thing in the book that I do every time, it’s part of my production structure. He said when you’re hiring an actor, ask them what draws them to the project, and don’t lead them to the answer.
Most projects that I’ve done are really not about the project. They’re about what’s going on inside and around, that journey that we’re all on, and what I can do to help that journey further itself and be of encouragement to somebody.
I tend to worry about each “emergency” or unforeseen complication on all my projects. But there are so many! All of life is unforeseen! So I am learning that is the cycle of life – everything is cyclical and temporary and to get ok with that someday could be my greatest achievement.
The mission of Tom Peterson and Catholics Come Home to bring souls home to Jesus and the church is critically important during this challenging time in our history. I fully support this New Evangelization project.
Film is the best way to capture an image and project that image. It just is, hands down.
We need to talk. All of us About what we’re going to do now.” “I was going to watch Project Runway.
Do I believe, for example, that by using magic I could fly? No. How would you get around gravity? Impossible. Do I believe that I might be able to project my consciousness into a very, very vivid simulation of flying? Yeah. Yes, I’ve done that. Yes, that works.
As a kid, I was always building things. My father had a shop in the house, and we built things – we were kind of a project family. I started out as a painter, and then painting led to cinema, and in cinema, you get to build so many things, or help build them.
It’s weird talking about projects as an actor because you’re so in them. I would prefer to write a paper and deliver it to everyone via e-mail.
I think we simply all like to project ourselves into somebody else – somebody who is better-looking, richer, smarter. It’s comforting. It’s escapism, and that, of course, is what the movies are supposed to be all about. Ultimately, I think it’s just part of human nature to pretend.
The best project is one that asks a novel question.
I remember that already as a child I was often intensely interested in things, obsessed by ideas and projects in many areas, and in these topics I learned much on my own, reading books.
Every labourer is a father, his labour is his child. Choose your project carefully and achieve it worthily
I teach a lot – I teach at the UCLA and USC graduate film programs – and a lot of those projects are my students’ projects that I act in or I do a cameo.
I felt really comfortable [on The Maze Runner]. From day one, I loved the script and the story, and I thought it could be something really cool and interesting and original, in this generation of regurgitated projects and sequels and stuff, so I’m proud to be part of it.
I have long been a proponent of a guest-worker program between the United States and Mexico, and in particular I have proposed that Arizona would be an ideal location for a pilot project.
I’m spending all my time and energy on the project at hand.
I really had the right nose for making the right decisions, in terms of which projects to do and which projects to stay away from. The people that I ended up becoming very close to in my career are the guys who inspire me.
If the kids did want to get into showbiz then so be it, but I would never project anything on to my children.
If you look at the international markets, for projects that are capital-intensive, the minute the construction phase is completed and production is supposed to start, normally all these loans get refinanced.
The body is not a thing, it is a situation: it is our grasp on the world and our sketch of our project
I think everyone in Hollywood works on multiple things because you never know what’s going to happen with your projects.
A long, healthy, and happy life is the result of making contributions, of having meaningful projects that are personally exciting and contribute to and bless the lives of others.
If having true love and love that is expressive and free outside of work affects a project where you have to be restrained and in denial and fixed and closed off. This doesn’t mean you go out and just destroy your love outside of your life and kind of mirror your movie.
Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.
A dream project is anything I do when I’m awake.
But people who think they can project themselves into deafness are mistaken because you can’t. And I’m not talking about imagining what a deaf person’s whole life is like I even mean just realizing what it is like for an instant.
I never take on anything that is just for the money or just for, you know. I always have to connect with it in a very personal way because I believe the audience will sense whether I’m into it or not, so I don’t take on projects that I’m not really passionate about.
I usually have 10 different animation projects going at a time.
People feel that building a rocket for Mars is an exciting project, but if you see the refugees around the world and the millions of homeless people, then for me it’s insulting that people are fantasizing about leaving planet Earth and going wherever.
I think about the collaboration between writers and readers, but I also think about the collaboration between all the writers in a generation or in a country or across time contributing to this massive project of documenting and reimagining our world.
Having portrayed English-speaking Indian characters in British and American projects, I have always wanted to use my mother tongue in an Indian film.
I firmly believe in the value of books: it’s the way to pass on our work, and it allows us to explore new ways to express our creativity. In this specific case, Mariano Vivanco shot some images of David for this project’s purpose.
The transaction cost approach maintains that some projects are easy to finance by debt and ought to be financed by debt. These are projects for which physical-asset specificity is low to moderate.
I got involved in lots of different areas round about 2007, 2008. Just working with lots of different people and stretching myself in different ways. I was working on art projects and working with other writers, just doing bits and pieces, trying to keep busy.
In a certain way working in animation has become very democratic because now anyone with the right technology can at least prepare a project from home in order to attract investors. Some people can even set up a small home studio and start working.
Within NASA, the shuttle is perhaps the least-groundbreaking project. Recall that Apollo was about creating brand-new technologies that did something unprecedented – putting men on the moon. The shuttle is, by comparison, a relic designed to make going into orbit routine.
Getting organized in the normal routines of life and finishing little projects you’ve started is an important first step toward realizing larger goals. If you can’t get a handle on the small things, how will you ever get it together to focus on the big things?
Infrastructure projects create a lot of demand for material, services and manpower. It is a chain reaction; if the infrastructure growth slows down, it will hit overall demand. The supply side has to keep increasing to sustain growth.
For all of us, self-briefing before going out or starting a project sharpens artistic wit.
There are dozens of unfinished or aborted projects in my files, but I can only assume they don’t get done because they’re not robust enough to struggle through the birth process.
Ideas, Mike Jones, an engineer at Google explained, were like babies – everything about their environment said they shouldn’t exist. But they do. You can’t dwell on problems too early, or they will swamp the virtues and you will decide not to do the project.
Everybody must have projects all the time. The maximum must be extracted from leisure … The whole of life must look like a job, and by this resemblance conceal what is not yet directly devoted to pecuniary gain.
Learning that you have stamina is an excellent thing to know. If a project fails, I know I can pick myself up.
That’s a great feeling to know that I’m going into a project that I have no idea what will become of that movie, but I really trust Ang Lee. And I really trusted Ron. It’s just really nice to work with people that you feel that way about.
For a mother the project of raising a boy is the most fulfilling project she can hope for.
I never had a “project.” I would go out and shoot, follow my eyes… I tried to capture with my camera, for others to see.
Sex is … scratching an itch Everything else is something we project on a very simple act. It’s the psychology, not the biology, that’s complicated.
What excites me is to know I don’t have any limits, that it’s quite an open project, more open than I thought it could be. To have this freedom to try very different things. I listen to lots of music from every genre.
One can’t dull a project better than by discussing it repeatedly.
I will never stop working on Spanish-language projects because that’s my language, and because I’m a Latina and Mexican before anything else.
In the early 1990s, when a lot of the developing world opened up to international capital flows… they ended up in very good long-term projects, but projects that weren’t going to pay off for five or 10 or 20 years.
I mean, if you are directing actors to do one thing and then directing them to do something else entirely because the one thing you wanted them to do may not work, then you are just shattering their confidence in the project.
In the housing projects, people talked of ways to reduce crime, relieve overcrowding, and they were good ideas that we plan to study, and possibly implement.
A well-functioning team of adequate people will complete a project almost regardless of the process or technology they are asked to use (although the process and technology may help or hinder them along the way).
What I hope in my ideal world is that with each project, I’ll either get to work with a really great script that would force me to grow, or work with a really great actor who will make me better.
I don’t see [ Trainspotting ] as an albatross, I see it more as a calling card. It’s got me out to Hollywood, I’ve got a good agent, I’ve got a good manager, I’m getting a lot of work out there and doing a lot of stuff – getting a lot of film projects on the go.
In any project the important factor is your belief. Without belief, there can be no successful outcome.
I got into Goldman really by acquisition because I had gone – I grew up in east New York in the Linden Projects – I did go to fancy schools, but my resume wasn’t up to a Wall Street set of resumes. I went to college. I went to law school and practiced for a while.
We need to learn to listen to what the people need and want and not try to impose on them a whole schema that they may not. This is historically difficult stuff: how do we balance the project of raising consciousness, advancing a vision of utopia, with the real and honest engagement in real-world experiments?
I like to have a project. I live to have something to waste my energy on, something to think about. To figure out like a puzzle.
A lot of artists are involved with fabrication. Artists today are making more objects and many of them need the participation of a dealer in order to facilitate and provide support for projects. So that has changed. But I don’t know if what it means to be an artist has really changed. I hope that it hasn’t.
When I was 14 -years-old, I made this PowerPoint presentation, and I invited my parents into my room and gave them popcorn. It was called ‘Project Hollywood 2004’ and it worked. I moved to L.A. in January of 2004.
Jocelyn Bell joined the project as a graduate student in 1965, helping as a member of the construction team and then analysing the paper charts of the sky survey.
I love the way she projects two facets: a visible persona and a subterranean one. She keeps her thoughts to herself; she seems to suggest that her secret, inner life is at least as significant as the appearance she gives.
When more Chinese started coming after the Gold Rush, employed on large projects like the Pacific Railroad, anti-Chinese sentiment became shrill.
I’ve started a project called Planet Art. The purpose will be to remind people where I really believe we came from, which was a creative planet, and that everybody can be autonomous through their art.
I’m not an actress who’s a fan of gratuity, so I don’t seek projects that have nudity for nudity’s sake. I don’t know any actors who do, unless they’re in ‘Spartacus.’
I think projects find me. It’s really interesting. Everything I’ve done, from “The Truman Show,” the “Eternal Sunshine” to “Yes Man” and “Bruce Almighty,” always come into my life at the perfect time.
It is extraordinary that whole populations have no projects for the future, none at all. It certainly is extraordinary, but it is certainly true.
A lot of times you have to dip into the independent world to find the really great projects and the really great scripts. They’re out there – you just have to search hard.
The trust we build over the years if of tremendous help to me when I start in a new project and need to find associates.
I can easily say “no” to a project if the script isn’t great, but when the script is good, then I start asking the other questions. Who’s going to direct it? Who’s the creator? Who are the actors? When are we shooting? Where is it shooting? All that kind of stuff.
I travel around the world constantly promoting my projects and endorsing products. Yes, I do get paid to go to parties; in fact, I’m the person who started the whole trend of paid appearances. But when you see me at a party, I’m always working or promoting something.
I feel immensely blessed – not just that I’m working, but that I’m working on projects that I really care about and like. I’ve always been that way.
Fashion never stops. There is always the new project, the new opportunity.
When I’m playing with the band or playing with some projects or some of my own stuff it’s about the musical approach. That would be the more turntablist approach to things of where it’s strictly about music.
I’m only interested in people engaged in a project of self-transformation.
My greatest love in life is to develop projects. I just get a huge kick out of that. I’ve been doing it since ever I could.
The way in which a society organizes the life of its members … is one “project” of realization among others. But once the project has become operative in the basic institutions and relations, it tends to become exclusive and to determine the development of the society as a whole.
Perception is naturally surpassed toward action; better yet, it can be revealed only in and through projects of action. The world is revealed as an “always future hollow”, for we are always future to ourselves.
I think painting has that unique potential to project opposing viewpoints.
I project love, music and love, and I pray for peace. A good song cuts straight to the heart; sometimes it doesn’t need to be too many lines – of course, I do love a good story.
I tell you, ‘Firefly’? Best job I ever had. Heartbroken when it was canceled, but had it not been canceled, I never would have gotten ‘Serenity’. I think ‘Serenity’ is the most incredible thing I’ve ever been able to actually get my hands on and do. I can’t even tell you how much love I have for that project.
When to use iterative development? You should use iterative development only on projects that you want to succeed.
50 Cent is a metaphor for “change”. But originally it was a gangster from Fort Greene Projects named 50 Cent and I took the name when he passed and because he’s not active, I thought it’d be cool to take it.
I hope I’m as graceful and gracious as [my parents] are. It’s hard for me to project how I’m gonna be if I make it to 86.
It’s just what I am. When I am in the zone making one movie, I just didn’t want to read anything else or do anything else, so I don’t really develop projects.
If I retain any freshness of approach, it’s by going slowly having long intervals between finished projects.
Sometimes, being a feminist artist, there are times where I’m in a position where I just want to feel like I’m saying all the right things politically, or I feel like I have to mention my own project over other people’s projects. But I don’t do that anymore. I just want to be off the cuff and honest.
Union of religious sentiments begets a surprising confidence, and ecclesiastical establishments tend to great ignorance and corruption; all of which facilitate the execution of mischievous projects.
I love jotting down ideas for my blog, so I doodle or take notes on all kinds of stuff that inspires me: the people I meet, boutiques I visit, a florist that just gave me a great idea for an interior-design project, things like that.
I think at the beginning of a project, you decide if you’re in love with the idea and what it’s about, or what you think it’s about at that time at least. Then you commit to it, and once you’ve commit to it no matter what, no matter how many self doubts you have, you’re in it. The ship’s sailed, you can’t turn around.
Bodybuilding has been the tool that single-handedly taught a little black boy from the projects to use his mind to achieve success. it taught me to see things for what they can be. I had 17-inch arms; I imagined them to be 24 inches. The power of my mind allowed me to achieve what I imagined.
This project is so important because it’s going to create an environment to inspire people. The RIBA believes that here in the UK we can design buildings and places that bring out the very best in people and motivate them. There is a real desire to see this project happen.
My fans — when I see them somewhere, outside my concerts — I get that, that vibe. They’re really supporting my projects and everything, because it’s a first time that a Turkish singer is, you know, able to express himself out of Turkey.
There’s always a project around, but you have to pick and choose.
Every project for me is a risk that I bet on. I believe my senses, and hopefully it will be successful. But sometimes you make it, and sometimes you fail.
I think being a doctor is really hard, and it’s really this thankless, never-ending job. It’s not even that you get done with a project. There are always sick people.
In the end it is the musician who actually plays the notes. The impresario – or the project leader – is only there to make sure that happens. That is a very different type of management mind-set.
Good parts just don’t fall off trees. I try to be very careful about what sort of projects I attack. There’s an audience out there that expects high standards from me.
A truly common culture is not one in which we all think alike, or in which we all believe that fairness is next to godliness, but one in which everyone is allowed to be in on the project of cooperatively shaping a common way of life.
I’ve started researching online journals for the project. Thanks for decoding Dr. Heller’s notes before sending them to me. If you’d have forwarded them to me without a translation, I’d be searching for a tall building/overpass/water tower from which to yell “goodbye cruel world.
Private enterprise in the history of civilization has never led large, expensive, dangerous projects with unknown risks. That has never happened because when you combine all these factors, you cannot create a capital market valuation of that activity.
The cause of laughter is simply the sudden perception of the incongruity between a concept and the real project.
Let’s just say I decided that while my son is young I don’t want to do projects that would take me away for months.
My most important projects have been the building and maintaining of schools and medical clinics for my dear friends in the Himalaya and helping restore their beautiful monasteries, too.
You can’t take a dying project, sprinkle it with the magic pixie dust of “open source,” and have everything magically work out.
I think my Buddhist practice has a profound influence on my life and encompasses my creative projects
We have no right to pick out all that is noblest and fairest in man, to project these qualities into space, and to call them God. We only thus create an ideal figure, a purified, ennobled, ‘magnified’ Man.
I am making use of social media as a marketing tool. It’s a great way to market yourself and your projects. It’s a free marketing tool.
An honest politician has no goodies to toss around. This limits his effectiveness profoundly, because political power in India is dispersed throughout a multi-tiered federal structure; a local official who has not been paid off can sometimes stop a billion-dollar project.
It’s important to me that people hear my music on its own merit and not in relation to another project I’ve done. Ultimately, the music has its own energy and message and stands on its own.
The road is long fro the project to its completion.
I put projects together. I put people together.
Trying to apply formal methods to all software projects is just as bad as trying to apply code-and-fix development to all projects.
I’ve been on the other side of the table many times, trying to get people to be sympathetic to projects, and I’ve been the victim of that kind of intense kindness masking extreme stupidity.
I think for me to find that project is going to be something that I’m going to have to develop for myself.
The way I look at a solo project is, I create what I want with whoever I want.
The process is intense and the producers, who are intelligent men, are bringing in new people for a fresh look at a complicated project that has been in the making for 10 years
I have done lots of music projects in my life and some of them I am more proud of than others.
I always tend to think, even in residential projects, about what a space is being asked to do – where is it located, what are the circumstances, where can I attack the problem, so to speak. How can you create a narrative for people moving through it? How can you convey its character?
I’m trying to simplify my life, I guess that’s my latest project.
Television and movies just take so long. If you pitch a show or develop a project, it can be a year before your show even gets on the air, if it gets picked up. Just the concept of “I had this idea” and within a week it was in the world, that was a part of why it felt weirdly empowering as a performer.
The things you’re passionate about and interested in, get experience with them by going deep on projects. I would encourage science projects, plays. Pursue science, math, writing, history – the 21st century demands a lot of cross-disciplinary thinking.
After working as a producer on many pop, electronica and some soundtrack, incidental music projects, I became more focused on film and TV scores.
From an acting perspective, I would say that you should always try to make your own stuff. Always be ambitious about your own projects and always know better than anyone else what you’re good at.
I don’t want euro bonds that serve to mutualize the entire debt of the countries in the euro zone. That can only work in the longer-term. I want euro bonds to be used to finance targeted investments in future-oriented growth projects. It isn’t the same thing. Let’s call them ‘project bonds’ instead of euro bonds.
With every project I start out on, there’s no footage. It’s always a big slog to find the footage.
I have to be more universal than my projects, but no less innovative.
Whether a project is large or small, it doesn’t matter much to me as long as I feel I can serve the story as best as possible.
The Phoenix Project is a must read for business and IT executives struggling with the growing complexity of IT.
[ Lady Susan novel by Jane Austen is] extremely difficult to adapt. I worked on it for years, for, like, ten years, before I started showing it to people. This was my back-burner project.
The Keystone XL project has built strong safety measures into its design with the newest technology. Additionally, 80 percent of the new Canadian oil sands are being developed ‘in situ,’ meaning, it has a similar carbon footprint and emissions as conventional oil wells.
For me, it’s about becoming a mogul, owning my own projects, and establishing myself as a funding producer. That’s what’s big to me. The movies and all that stuff are great, but the fact that I’m in a position to do what I want to do, however I want to do it and when I want to do it is bigger.
My favorite actor that I look up to is Joseph Gordon-Levitt. His career is something I look up to, I just want to be that guy. He’s always part of projects that have a lot of soul and that’s what I want to do as an actor.
My name was given to me. I didn’t just decide to change it one day. But I ran with it to reflect a more peaceful and positive attitude for my new Reincarnated project. The Snoop Dogg name is so connected to hip-hop, and I didn’t want to change that. Hip-hop raised me, and I would never turn my back on it.
My record company had to beg me to stop filmin’ music videos in the projects. No matter what the song was about, I had ’em out there.
As I progressed further with my project, it became obvious that it was really unimportant where I chose to photograph. The particular place simply provided an excuse to produce work… you can only see what you are ready to see – what mirrors your mind at that particular time.
The number of unfinished construction projects has increased significantly. A lot of these are not covered with any security
I think it’s not a big secret that I like to work a lot. I really go out for projects when I find things I’m passionate about.
You learn something from everything you do. With every project I’ve ever done, I’ve always treated it like I’m still in school.
I try to block a couple of hours of unscheduled time every day so that I can work on the day’s most important projects.
When you start out on a project as an actor, you know, you approach the character from the standpoint of maybe writing a list – even if it’s a mental list that you make – of the adjectives that the character has or that character possesses.
If I’m going to pour that kind of love and energy and sweat and heartache, all that juju into something, I’m going to lean into my own projects before someone else’s.
What you need, what you deserve, is a guy who adores you for what you are. Who doesn’t see you as a project, but a prize. you know?
You’ve never reacted to someone else. You project meaning onto nothing. And you react to the meaning you’ve projected
I don’t really look for specific types of projects any more. I’m not taking care of a career anymore. I’m just having fun acting.
From the moment you are clear in your vision of yourself and how you project that vision in your family, your community and in the world, that’s all that matters.
My favorite programming languages are Lisp and C. However, since around 1992 I have worked mainly on free software activism, which means I am too busy to do much programming. Around 2008 I stopped doing programming projects.
Don’t worry that you can’t seem to come up with sure billion dollar winners at first. Just do projects for yourself for fun. You’ll get better and better.
Solyndra’s failure isn’t a reason for the government to give up on alternative energy, any more than the failure of Pets.com during the Internet bubble means that venture capital should steer clear of tech projects.
If you are the writer/director especially, no one cares more about the project than you do. You know it in and out. You created it. So always listen to input but don’t be afraid to veto and fight decisions that you know instinctively are wrong.
You never know when you start a project just how good it can be.
Because I was a woman, I was vulnerable. It was easy to vilify me and project me as a woman who was not following the tradition of a ‘good African woman.’
The one thing that I have learned from all these projects is that the key to transformative change is to make the system see itself. That’s why deep data matters. It matters to the future of our institutions, our societies, and our planet.
See who else is interested and join other people’s projects that have already started that you like. You don’t always have to reinvent the wheel and start your own thing.
I haven’t been worried about my image so much as I have been trying to find projects to push myself further than before.
Usually when I make music, in my head I’m like ‘this isn’t Grimes, this is just some other project that you can release later, so there’s no pressure and it doesn’t matter and no-one’s ever gonna hear it’.
When I was eleven, I got cast in the last directorial project of Christopher Reeve.
I’m usually two projects ahead. It’s hard for me because I don’t have a really long attention span.
No one nowadays talks about the absolute, not even people with firm and deep religious convictions. The whole Hegelian project has no resonance for us, as it once had for the Germans in the 1820s and the British and Americans around the 1880s.
Creativity runs across many categories in life, from the arts-and-crafts project a mum or dad does with their kids, to the bestselling author’s manuscript, to the designs of the hairdresser, to the creations of the computer programming genius.
I dont like talking about any projects till they solidify and take off.
Never, ever, ever wear anything you are uncomfortable in. Because that is what you’ll project: ‘I look like a fool.’
I decided I could develop a toy and get some revenue from that and then use that revenue to really become an inventor and work on some of the more challenging projects I had in mind.
The success of any development project is based on encouraging people to shoulder their own responsibilities and become aware of their own capacities, their rights too, rather than providing them with ready-made solutions.
The independent project, in a general way, requests a constant work to spread, in the traditional way and in the alternative circuit. It is a fight… but I believe that it is the way.
An hour is not merely an hour, it is a vase full of scents and sounds and projects and climates.
Your first projects aren’t the greatest things in the world, and they may have no money value, they may go nowhere, but that is how you learn – you put so much effort into making something right if it is for yourself.
I have kept a part of Catalina Productions going, through which I develop a few projects just for me.
Occasionally, I would focus on a particular school project and become obsessed with, what seemed to my mother, to be trivial details instead of apportioning the time I spent on school work in a more efficient way.
The Ninety-Ninety Rule of Project Schedules – the first ninety percent of the task takes ninety percent of the time, and the last ten percent takes the other ninety percent.
Everything I do that I’m enthusiastic about. This is genuine enthusiasm. If I don’t – I mean I’ve done other projects that I have not been a fan of until I realized I was doing it and I wasn’t really there. And I don’t do those anymore.
Basically, managing is about influencing action. Managing is about helping organizations and units to get things done, which means action. Sometimes, managers manage actions directly. They fight fires. They manage projects. They negotiate contracts.
Every project has challenges, and every project has its rewards.
When someone offers me a job or a project, I always ask myself, “What does it tell me about the world?” and “Have I seen it before?” Two good questions.
The combination of threads, remote-procedure-call interfaces, and heavyweight object-oriented design is especially dangerous… if you are ever invited onto a project that is supposed to feature all three, fleeing in terror might well be an appropriate reaction.
Should 50 per cent of Telefilm’s projects be helmed, produced, or written by women? I think so.
Some infrastructure projects clearly require massive, coordinated investment – interstate highways or a new trans-Hudson tunnel, for instance. Others don’t have to. We should be unafraid of pilot projects and learning.
I’ve definitely enjoyed myself more on the projects where I’ve played a good person, rather than on the projects where I’ve played somebody who is morally compromised.
I’m kind of getting more excited about developing my own stuff, or getting involved early in projects and doing my best to make things that I care about happen.
I’ve started a little independent record label called ‘Six String Productions’ and recorded a couple of tunes, and I hope to do some more with some future artists next year. It’s a real passion project of mine.
Because they dream so strongly in themselves, their superiority and women’s inferiority, they project an image that a woman finds very, very difficult to fight against.
No one ever said movies are for developing your range. Hardly anyone gets that opportunity. Which is why I think the stage is so good. It’s less bread, but you can play different types, and you can initiate your own projects.
I realize that ‘Postcards’ was like input, and ‘Ghostwriting’ was output. I had all these frustrations and feelings before I did those two projects. ‘Postcards’ was something that brought new life and creative inspiration into the record, while ‘Ghostwriting’ was relieving myself.
This weird thing happens when you’re in a movie that has some level of success. People start offering you all kinds of things, and they just expect you to do them because they’ll be good for your career. It’s not about the project’s integrity or anything like that.
I love people like Kate Bush and Stevie Nicks and David Bowie – people that project themselves as characters and that contextualizes the music.
Software projects fail for one of two general reasons: the project team lacks the knowledge to conduct a software project successfully, or the project team lacks the resolve to conduct a project effectively.
Just doing a project because its an opportunity wont create meaning. As an artist, I need something to communicate.
Every project that I had an opportunity to do or chose to do, I wanted it to be different from the last thing I did, and I think that’s why I have a good, I had kind of a diverse kind of rГ©sumГ©.
It is easy to have a lot of paintings or projects hanging around that are ‘almost done.
Perhaps your challenge isn’t finding a better project or a better boss. Perhaps you need to get in touch with what it means to feel passionate. People with passion look for ways to make things happen.
I don’t really have a domestic inclination. Even my apartment has a semblance of a storage facility. It’s just stacks, there are no bookshelves, just books and piles of stamp collections and weird little sewing and knitting projects.
To a greater or lesser degree, the project of the self becomes translated into one of the possession of desired goods and the pursuit of artificially framed styles of life. (…) Not just lifestyles, but self-actualisation is packaged and distributed according to market criteria.
If you want me to be straight, gay, into monkeys, dating Kylie, whatever, I’m happy for people to project whatever onto me!
The real story of the Ground Zero mosque is that the project only became feasible because of the appalling and astonishing fecklessness of the officials who were charged with the reconstruction of the site and the neighborhood all the way back in 2001.
I’m the freaky version of that superhero who says, wherever there is injustice, I shall be there. Whenever there is a difficult project, I’d like to be there.
I have a large personal collection of pictures. For every project, I choose images. Usually I don’t do this until I’ve done an extensive script breakdown and distilled the text down to poetic form. I have to plant enough seeds so that there will be vibration.
Producing is very much like running a business, where you find the project, you find the different people involved, you put the elements together, and you make sure they all work together well.
Today is what’s thought about long ago. Now today we have to project, think, experiment, prototype the future.
My music has always been important regardless of other projects.
When a new writer comes onto a project, he’ll make wholesale changes just to mark the territory or for greater credit.
I am not a finisher, I am a starter. And I am always thinking, what is the next project.
Hunts Point Revival’s reuse of the existing structure as part of the new development was conceptually bold and challenging. Overall, the project contained a good blend of creative sustainable design elements. The solar room for heating and ventilation was particularly creative and convincing.
We try to organize the world, which isn’t organized the way our brains want to organize it. We tell stories about the people in our lives, we project ideas onto them. We project relationships with people, we make our lives into stories. I don’t think we can avoid doing that.
President Obama projects a strong offense, but he faces a rebellious Congress focused on state’s rights.
He (Saddam Hussein) has not developed any significant capability with respect to weapons of mass destruction. He is unable to project conventional power against his neighbours.
There are projects I’ve done, such as ‘Queen,’ where I played Halle Berry and Danny Glover’s son, where I’m so extremely proud of the work that I did that I will sit down and watch that any time.
The wilderness that has come to us out of the eternity of the past, we have the boldness to project into the eternity of the future.
Yeah, it was always a low-budget passion project. It’s my directing debut. I’ve always wanted to make an improv movie because I have so much experience in it, but it’s not a big studio movie. It was an experiment that turned out better than I thought.
I like involved projects.
I love every aspect of the performing arts and can’t imagine myself doing anything different. I give my heart to every project.
It is absurd to imagine that any child will be able to earn a living, let alone contribute to resolving our world’s complex problems, without knowing how to read and write. My foundation supports the National Writing Project so that teachers can be more effective in their efforts to improve literacy for all students.
As much as I can and am able to, with the projects that are presented to me, I try to just really choose things that are challenging and are something I haven’t tackled before.
Because the idea of climate change is so plastic, it can be deployed across many of our human projects and can serve many of our psychological, ethical and spiritual needs…We need to ask not what we can do for climate change, but to ask what climate change can do for us.
I have other projects to do. I try not to let that documentation interfere with my present day.
You go home happy, you go to work happy, you make a better project because everybody loves it and loves each other.
One of my teachers once said that the way you know you’re on the right path is that it works. Now, that doesn’t mean you don’t run into blocks and brick walls, but it does mean that you can find a way around them or find a way to change yourself or your project in order to find the flow again and have it work.
When I’m choosing projects to be a part of it’s always a combination of so many different things. The primary thing is the director. But a very important element is, is it different enough from anything else I’ve ever done, or what I’ve last done.
Alice and I, we’d met before, but we were able to kind of sit and chat on the set of Dark Shadows, and talk about maybe writing some songs together. We started doing that, and then one thing led to another and it became this Vampire project – because he was telling stories about all those days, which were fascinating.
Bankers cannot afford to be concerned with only the economic aspects of projects. There may be serious implications on the natural environment, the urban environment, on human culture.
What I wanna do with Methods is keep that around as sorta my freak out, creative free for all- anything goes project.
We sell to an affluent demographic, so it is important for us to project a professional image.
I don’t really feel pressure. I’m so distracted by what we’re doing; I’m doing this four-acre project, it’s just absorbing all my attention. Before you know it we’re onto the next project, and so on and so forth.
Don’t write something that is your passion project because all it will do is get the passion stomped out of you.
I’m very interested in film, but any more involvement would happen organically. I’m not really seeking anything out, just looking at projects that come up that interest me.
It’s nice to be asked to do good projects.
The most durable thing in writing is style. It is a projection of personality and you have to have a personality before you can project it. It is the product of emotion and perception.
Everyone knows of great projects that were too dependent on a charismatic individual, or simply too expensive to be replicated.
Women and men just aren’t that different. Oh, we’re different in some intriguing ways, and it can be fun to band together for all-gal or all-guy projects. But when it comes to the tragic mess Christ came to heal, we’re pretty much the same.
Most of the time, you find that the smaller the budget, the more the project is about something substantive.
With documentary-film projects, you hope you highlight an area of concern people haven’t thought about before. A lot of times, I’m asking myself – ‘This seems to be a significant problem. What can be done that hasn’t been done?
The rest of the songs on the album [Mortal City ] have spare arrangements on them. Steve [Miller], really loved that. He’d just come off of a project with someone who basically had to mask the fact that there were no songs there with production. He said, “Oh, my God, you have real songs here!”
I’d love to act more. I’ve had to turn down multiple movies because I was on tour, but it’s encouraging to know that someday there might be the right role, the right timing. And I’ve been writing a lot of music, so hopefully very soon I’ll have recorded a project of my own. I also want to get a boat and open a restaurant.
Some of these things I saw in foreign films – African films, Cuban films – long before I decided to really go on this course as an actor. I started to think about what values I saw in those films that I wanted to bring to my projects
Organizations are about putting ideas through one or more types of gating procedures. In this way, ideas go from being a whim to becoming a project, from being a “skunk works” effort to becoming an official, mainstream effort, from being an unfounded program to a funded process, and so on.
Most independent filmmakers in Britain and North America work for commercial crews and then have their own projects when they’ve got enough money saved up to do so.
As I teach, I project the condition of my soul onto my students, my subject, and our way of being together.
I’m focusing on my efforts behind the camera. I’m doing some producing and directing so that I can make projects for all of the amazing, talented actors and crew that I know.
In art or architecture your project is only done when you say it’s done. If you want to rip it apart at the eleventh hour and start all over again, you never finish. I was one of those crazy creatures.
I don’t know if it’s a misconception, but I often get asked why I always make stories about family and love. Over the years, IВґve also directed commercials, a children’s film, and TV – dramas (both comedic and darker), because I always feel the urge to go in a different direction with my next project.
If you look at what I do, there’s no consistency. The consistency is that there is no consistency. I do projects that are good and not so good.
The extraordinary power of influence is now within everyone’s reach. Recent graduates, executive assistants, project managers, and business leaders can all benefit from Monarth’s simple steps for ‘getting everyone to follow your lead.’
A lot of people don’t feel like doing very much. Or one project is really all they can do at one time. I can have five or six things going at the same time. It doesn’t bother me or tire me, but sometimes it does rattle me.
I want to be inspired by the characters that I play and excited by the projects that I do.
Id like to do Broadway if the right project came along, but my mission in life is that I want to help change peoples lives.
It was a terrible psychic blow… Ebbets Field was replaced by a housing project. How could a father tell his son where Duke Snider used to hit one? Point out Apartment 5Q?
I’m just happy to do projects I’m passionate about.
I want to make something I would find joy in consuming. Personally, I enjoy those projects that are worth me investing time and energy and thought into, to find a work that has more to say than will fit in a 4 minute song.
You always project on the outside how you feel on the inside.
There are good reasons why we don’t want everyone to learn nuclear physics, medicine or how financial markets work. Our entire modern project has been about delegating power over us to skilled people who want to do the work and be rewarded accordingly.
Culture is more and more consciously becoming a project carried out in the domain of language by, for instance, propaganda both governmental and commercial.
Since I started making art, I’ve always had some kind of project that was really about and for other people, because I think I just need that balance to feel sane myself — you know?

I am excited to be on set. I love what I do. As long as I have that feeling, then I’m gonna stick to it. As long as I’m lucky enough to get projects and keep working, I will always be grateful for it.
My project could be only to photograph as I felt and desired, to regulate a pleasant form of living, to get up in the morning-free, to feel the trees, the grass, the water, sky or buildings, people-everything that affects us; and to photograph that which I saw and have always felt.
It was easy to persecute me without people feeling ashamed. It was easy to vilify me and project me as a woman who was not following the tradition of a ‘good African woman’ and as a highly educated elitist who was trying to show innocent African women ways of doing things that were not acceptable to African men.
I am a particular fan of integrative exercise – that is, exercise that occurs in the course of doing some productive activity such as gardening, bicycling to work, doing home improvement projects and so on.
Where do these images comes from and where do they return? What is it that projects these images? How is it that we are the screen? How is it that we have forgotten that we are the Self and that nothing but the Self exists?
I feel like every project that I’ve been doing, I’ve learned something about myself. It’s like I’ve cracked something, or my vision of myself has gotten wider. I’m just learning and growing, and overcoming the fear.
My m.o. as far as choosing projects is I really try not to work. I try to not do the scripts that are offered me.
My capital budget maintains my commitment to the education of children, health of the Chesapeake Bay, and safety of all Maryland citizens. We will continue to focus on the five pillars of my Administration as we build today and look forward to the projects of the future.
I was looking for projects, as you always are, and I read this scene . . . and I’m in the Hollywood Hills. So I thought, ‘This is interesting.’ You have this setup that seems to be based in some reality and you can only wonder where Black’s going to go with this.
I wouldn’t be where I am without these Funny or Die videos in general. When I was first starting out, I would take roles just to get the experience, but not exactly because I believed in the projects I was doing.
Now undoubtedly, we face some very British challenges when it comes to infrastructure. We rightly cherish our back yards and green spaces, and we’ll defend them passionately when projects are announced. We live in a democracy, and we like to debate these things, often for many years.
And I love doing my own projects; that’s what I’ve always wanted to do.
The professional tackles the project that will make him stretch. He takes on the assignment that will bear him into uncharted waters, compel him to explore unconscious parts of himself. Is he scared? Hell, yes. He’s petrified.
All public projects are mausoleums, not always in shapes, but always in cost.
If someone down-votes you, or you don’t get a like, or someone says something not cool, you project onto it the person or the people who have hurt you the most in life.
I’ve been rewritten on past projects and thought, ‘That’s not what she was – she was this really powerful woman, and there’s nothing wrong with that.’ I’m going to keep writing them, and hopefully people will start making them.
I learned to focus my energy on high-quality, long-term projects rather than lower-quality projects with quicker payoffs.
