Quote by Marilyn Ferguson

Fear is a question: What are you afraid of, and why? Just as the seed of health is in illness, because illness contains information, our fears are a treasure house of self-knowledge if we explore them.

Summary

This quote emphasizes that fear should not be seen as a negative emotion, but rather as an opportunity for self-reflection and growth. It suggests that we should examine our fears and understand why they exist, as they hold valuable insights about ourselves. Similar to how illness can reveal clues about our overall well-being, our fears hold information that, if explored, can help us gain a deeper understanding of who we are and what makes us vulnerable. By confronting and learning from our fears, we have the potential to discover hidden strengths and transform ourselves into more resilient individuals.

I think films about men are often about characters who don't want to express their feelings. You're supposed to kind of admire them for not expressing their feelings. And I feel that's a bit dull.

I'm not sure anybody's ready to see me in a drama. And loving movies so much, I've seen a lot of comics try to make that transition too fast, and it can be detrimental. And I don't think I've had as much success as I need in the comedy genre to open up those opportunities.
