Quote by Colin Farrell

Anything that's different from your own realm of experience as a human being, whether it's driving a car or a boat, or using guns, anything that separates you from yourself and leads you more towards this character's existence is a big help.

Anything that's different from your own realm of experience

Summary

This quote emphasizes the significance of embracing novel experiences that deviate from our ordinary lives and thoughts. By venturing into uncharted territories such as driving a car or boat or learning to use guns, we not only expand our knowledge but also step out of our comfort zones and develop a deeper understanding of different perspectives. These encounters broaden our horizons by connecting us with the world of other individuals and characters, fostering empathy and personal growth. Thus, engaging in activities that detach us from our familiar existence can greatly contribute to our overall development as human beings.

She had taken him for granted, she thought with surprise and shame, watching the flickering candlelight. She had assumed his kindness was so natural and so innate, she had never asked herself whether it cost him any effort. Any effort to stand between Will and the world, protecting each of them from the other. Any effort to accept the loss of his family with equanimity. Any effort to remain cheerful and calm in the face of his own dying.

In science, 'fact' can only mean 'confirmed to such a degree that it would be perverse to withhold provisional assent.' I suppose that apples might start to rise tomorrow, but the possibility does not merit equal time in physics classrooms.
