Going down in history is a dead end pursuit

Summary

This quote suggests that the desire to be remembered or recognized in history is ultimately futile. It implies that focusing too much on one's legacy or trying to leave a lasting impact can be a distraction from more meaningful pursuits. Instead, it encourages individuals to prioritize the present and engage in actions that have a meaningful impact on their own lives and the lives of others rather than striving solely for historical recognition.

Everybody can be great...because anybody can serve. You don't have to have a college degree to serve. You don't have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love.

The writer's only responsibility is to his art. He will be completely ruthless if he is a good one. He has a dream.

Whole communities are growing up without fathers or male role models. Bringing up a family in the best of circumstances is not easy. To try to do it by placing the entire burden on women - 91% of single-parent families in Britain are headed by the mother, according to census data - is practically absurd and morally indefensible.

It seems like the studios are either making giant blockbusters, or really super-small indies. And the mid-level films I grew up on, like 'Back to the Future' and all those John Hughes movies, the studios aren't doing. It's hard to get them on their feet.
