"I'd like to have a go at directing."

Ben Whishaw

“Part of the rationalist ethos is binding yourself emotionally to an absolutely lawful reductionistic universe a universe containing no ontologically basic mental things such as souls or magic and pouring all your hope and all your care into that merely real universe and its possibilities, without disappointment.”
“You want a better, more fraternal, more just world? Well then, start building it: Who is stopping you? Build it inside yourself and around you, build it with those who want it. Build it small, and it will grow.”
“The best thing about freshmen is that they become sophomores.”
“If you live long enough, you'll see that every victory turns into a defeat.”
“A neighbor will stand at your door talking for 20 minutes because she doesn't have time to come in.”
“I have done every job in the Theatre apart from wardrobe. I was out of work more times than I was in it.”
“Non-violence is very weak in the theoretical sense; it cannot defend itself. But it is most powerful in the action situation where people are using non-violence because they want desperately to bring about some change. Non-violence in action is a very potent force and it can't be stopped. The people who are struggling have the complete say-so. No man-made law, no human ruler, no army can destroy this. There is no way it can be destroyed... And so, if we have the capacity to endure, if we have the patience, things will change.”
“Itâ€™s just what they are â€” theyâ€™re jokesâ€¦most jokes are about Jewish people, rednecks, black folksâ€¦I canâ€™t determine what offends another person.”
