I began to wonder if film could be a way to make paintings move.

The way we work is: I like to sit next to him on the piano bench. I talk and Angelo plays. He plays my words.

Picture it this way: You are the Empire State Building. You’ve got hundreds of rooms. And in those rooms, there’s a lot of junk.

For me, for example, “more wind” means “more mystery.”

If you can expand the container you’re fishing in—your consciousness—you can catch bigger fish.

you don’t use meditation to catch ideas. You’re expanding the container, and you come out very refreshed, filled with energy, and raring to go out and catch ideas afterward.

When you dive into that ocean, that consciousness, you enliven it. You don’t dive for specific solutions; you dive to enliven that ocean of consciousness.

If you have a golf-ball-sized consciousness, when you read a book, you’ll have a golf-ball-sized understanding; when you look out a window, a golf-ball-sized awareness; when you wake up in the morning, a golf-ball-sized wakefulness; and as you go about your day, a golf-ball-sized inner happiness.

like lightbulbs, we can enjoy that brighter light of consciousness within, and also radiate it.
