You know, it’s the best job I’ve ever had, on its worst day it’s better than anything else, but it’s a huge amount of responsibility

You give me a drawing, you give me a prop to replicate, you give me a crane, scaffolding, parts from ‘Star Wars’

Getting paid less to work for people you like and believe in is much better for you (and your career) in the long run.

If I had any dignity, that would have been humiliating.

Any time I have an Internet connection, there’s a sluice of stuff moving into there, everything from beautiful rings to cockpit photos.

I believe that inside every tool is a hammer.

We’re always trying to make the process apparent. So, we have learned to try and never rely on a technological solution when an analogue one is in front of us.

I just had one of those ‘what the hell are we doing’ moments.

Truly appreciate those around you, and you’ll soon find many others around you. Truly appreciate life, and you’ll find that you have more of it.

My sister’s also very, very competitive but she is more concerned than I am with being liked. So she hides it away. I try to make my competitiveness part of my charm.

Live your days on the positive side of life, in tune with your most treasured values. And in each moment you’ll have much to live for.
