Comfort Quotes

If only we could sit down at a big round world table and eat tacos in a spirit of love we might begin to work on world peace!

Once I hit a point where I feel very comfortable as an actor - because you can never stop learning, I don't care how comfortable you get, you can never stop learning - but once I hit a point where I can get that comfort level of taking on the task of directing and having the confidence in myself to have people's respect when I give them direction, that's definitely something I want to do someday.

Robert McKee says humans naturally seek comfort and stability. Without an inciting incident that disrupts their comfort, they won’t enter into a story.

The character has to jump into the story, into the discomfort and the fear, otherwise the story will never happen.
