“What’s valuable to me has become clearer as I’ve got older. To me, it’s about the value of your time and your day and the value of the people you spend it with.”

So much of making movies is about discovery on the day, what you’re figuring out. If you know everything going in, then it’s not worth doing – it’s already done. I’m interested in finding people who I think have a voice – and a very specific voice.

I don’t want to die without scars.

Most of the time is with the family. Most of the time, is all the time. When we work it’s a very intensive chunk of time. We work for 12 hours a day, 14 hours a day is common. And we’ll do that for a few months and then we get to relax a little bit.

There’s no right. There’s no wrong. There’s only popular opinion.

The best moments can’t be preconceived. I’ve spent a lot of time in editing rooms, and a scene can be technically perfect, with perfect delivery and facial expression and timing, and you remember all your lines, and it is dead.

I believe in the power of journalism. To make informed decisions, you have to have an understanding of the dynamics of a situation. And journalism does bridge gaps and creates dialogue.

Getting a burp out of your little thing when she needs it is probably the greatest satisfaction I’ve come across at this point in my life.

My family worry for me because I’m gonna burn in an eternal pit of fire.

I believe you make your day. You make your life. So much of it is all perception, and this is the form that I built for myself. I have to accept it and work within those compounds, and it’s up to me.

I embrace the messiness of life. I find it so beautiful actually.

I believe you make your day. You make your life.

I always heard criticism is the tax on fame. They were right. And then some.

You are not the car you drive.

When you first get opportunities, suddenly you get surrounded by a lot of people who want to make money off you but also are there to help. But they start telling you so much what you need to be and what you need to do to maintain some idea of career maintenance.

I haven’t known life to be any happier.

Authentic brands don’t emerge from marketing cubicles or advertising agencies. They emanate from everything the company does.

Investing is where you find a few great companies and then sit on your ass.

True love is not so much a matter of romance as it is a matter of anxious concern for the well-being of one’s companion.

If you hang out with chickens, you’re going to cluck and if you hang out with eagles, you’re going to fly.

You don’t build wealth with credit card rewards and airline miles. You can’t beat the credit card companies at their own game.

If I was going to go into an office I wanted it to be with people I would choose to be around even if we didn’t have to work together and so that was one of the major reasons why I decided out of all the different companies we invested in to work with Zappos.

You’ll never find a better sparring partner than adversity.

Jump. See whose at the bottom when you land on your feet.
