Film school is a complete con, because the information is there if you want it. ~Paul Thomas Anderson

If you see an intelligent man who tells you where true treasures are to be found, who shows what is to be avoided, and administers reproofs, follow that wise man; it will be better, not worse, for those who follow him. ~Gautama Buddha
