It is constructive, it is helpful, it is healthy, to think about what future society might be like, because then it guides you somewhat what you are doing today, but only so long as this discussions about future society don't become obstacles to working towards this future society.

One is to construct an ideal goal, so that incremental changes can be judged by whether they move the institutional structure toward or away from that ideal. The other reason is very different. It is so that if a crisis requiring or facilitating radical change does arise, alternatives will be available that have been carefully developed and fully explored.

  • In Korea is what I do is I watch the playback of each take with all of the actors and spend a lot of time discussing each take. Also, I use the process we call auto-assembly because I storyboard my entire film right at the beginning, even before pre-production ever begins, so my vision is already laid out on the storyboard for everybody to share. It enables the on-set assembly person, as we call them, to cut together each take into a sequence. This enables a director to review the take within the context of the sequence of the scene.

These are deadly diseases that are taking lives daily. So please, let's be cautious of the words we use when discussing ED's and other mental illnesses.

  • I don't feel like I have a lot to offer in terms of an authoritative voice on a lot of political issue. I don't know how to fix the economy, or how to increase the number of jobs.

I want to get beyond that thing of discussing how the weather is a bit better today than it was yesterday, and how this is a nice restaurant.

I'm interested in that area, whether it's on stage or in real life.

  • To choose a writer for a friend is like palling around with your cardiologist, who might be musing as you talk to him that you are a sinking man.

He probably sees you as tragic, like his characters - or unworthy of tragedy, which is worse.

Like eunuchs discussing the Kama Sutra, the voters discuss the elections in Laxmangarh.

    Aravind Adiga (2008). “The White Tiger: A Novel”, p.82, Simon and Schuster
