Quote by Franka Potente

I think actors are divided into two groups: one that wants to be an actor to become famous and rich, and the other that wants to be an actor because they have to be. I'm more in the second group.

Summary

This quote suggests that actors can be classified into two distinct groups based on their motivations. The first group consists of individuals driven by a desire for fame and wealth, seeing acting as a means to achieve these goals. However, the second group comprises actors who feel compelled to pursue acting, as if it is a calling they cannot resist. The author identifies themselves as belonging to the latter category, implying that their passion for acting originates from an inner need rather than extrinsic rewards.

I simply don't believe in failure. In itself, it doesn't exist. We create it. We make ourselves fail.

Existují takové v?ci jako jedlé... ne, delikátní pirohy

Existují takové v?ci jako jedlé... ne, delikátní pirohy v polévce, hrášky dokonale uva?ené, rajská omá?ka pikantní ve své chu?ové plnosti a masová nápl? z on?ch?ástí zví?at, které by se daly v?tšinou i pojmenovat. Jsou platonické burgery vyrobené z hov?zího a ne z volské tlamy a kopyt. Jsou jisté obchody, kde mají smažené filé s pomfrity, kdy filé je ryba a ne jen bílá b?e?ka v rakvi?ce ze smažené strouhanky a pomfrity jsou k jídlu a nedají se použít k holení. Jsou párky v rohlíku, kdy mají párky s masem spole?nou nejen barvu a jejich š?astní konzumenti si na n? nedávají ho??ici, aby nepokazili tu chu?. D?ležité však je, že se lidé dají nau?it na to, aby dávali p?ednost ob?erstvení toho prvního typu a vyhledávali je. Je to, jako kdyby Machiavelli napsal kucha?ku. Ale a? už se mají v?ci jakkoliv, neexistuje omluva pro nikoho, kdo dá na pizzu ananas.

You must not for one instant give up the effort to build new

You must not for one instant give up the effort to build new lives for yourselves. Creativity means to push open the heavy, groaning doorway to life. This is not an easy struggle. Indeed, it may be the most difficult task in the world, for opening the door to your own life is, in the end, more difficult than opening the doors to the mysteries of the universe.

Knowledge comes, but wisdom lingers. It may not be difficult

Knowledge comes, but wisdom lingers. It may not be difficult to store up in the mind a vast quantity of face within a comparatively short time, but the ability to form judgments requires the severe discipline of hard work and the tempering heat of experience and maturity.
