Continuously thou wilt look at human things as smoke and nothing at all; especially if thou reflectest at the same time, that what has once changed will never exist again in the infinite duration of time.

The wonderful thing about 48 fps is the integration of live action and CG elements; that is something I learned from 'The Hobbit.'

Andy Serkis

Brahma was excessively sparing with earth, water, and fire.... The reckless expenditure of air and ether in his composition was amazing.

Rabindranath Tagore

Asteroids have us in our sight. The dinosaurs didn't have a space program, so they're not here to talk about this problem. We are, and we have the power to do something about it.
