punishment years disagree
The punishment itself is something I respectfully disagree with, but for thousands and thousands of years it was practiced everywhere.
heart men solitude
I have been in lots of very intense life situations. I have been shot at, and I have been hungry, and I have been in solitude, and I have also briefly been behind bars. So in a way, I know the heart of men.
men mountain boat
Every man should pull a boat over a mountain once in his life.
community environmental doe
Our presence on this planet does not seem to be sustainable. Our technological civilisation makes up particularly vulnerable. There is talk all over the scientific community about climate change. Many of them [scientists] agree, the end of human life on earth is assured.
mean documentaries film
It's all movies for me. And besides, when you say documentaries, in my case, in most of these cases, means "feature film" in disguise.
men land literature
James Joyce is a cul-de-sac. [Ulysses is] ... an example how literature branched out and went into, lost itself in nowhere, no man's land.

Centuries from now our great-great-great-grandchildren will look back at us with amazement at how we could allow such a precious achievement of human culture as the telling of a story to be shattered into smithereens by commercials, the same amazement we feel today when we look at our ancestors for whom slavery, capital punishment, burning of witches, and the inquisition were acceptable everyday events.

There are certainly laws and elements that make a film more accessible to mainstream audiences. If you've got Tom Cruise as a strongman, I'm sure it would have larger audiences, but it wouldn't have the same substance.
men good-man sides
Women have a very good sense for seeing instantly what constitutes a good man. Not physically. The physical strength is only a small side of it.
men marketing digital
I'm not into digital marketing, downloading, or streaming - I've always been a man of the theaters.
