Summary

This quote encapsulates the idea that in the early stages of infancy, the baby perceives herself and her mother as inseparable entities, forming a profound union. When the mother exhibits attentive and empathetic responses to the baby's needs, a crucial element of sustaining life is provided which is deeply intertwined with the baby's sense of self and well-being. This highlights the importance of a nurturing and responsive mother-child relationship, as it plays a vital role in the infant's early development and sense of connection to the world.

Life is short. I'm 47 years old. I've got 10 years to go where I can be the best I can be. I want those 10 years to be precious, not like before, cranking two or three movies a year. I've made a ton of movies in my life, but so what?

The audience is the most revered member of the theater. Without an audience there is no theater. Every technique learned by the actor, every curtain, every flat on the stage, every careful analysis by the director, every coordinated scene, is for the enjoyment of the audience. They are our guests, our evaluators, and the last spoke in the wheel which can then begin to roll. They make the performance meaningful.
