I don’t have time for regrets. I go forward; I’m a doer, and I always have projects and dreams.
It’s so important to create roles and characters and projects that feature black people in a way that’s not specifically targeted towards the niche market, which is, like, a black movie is created, and it’s produced and pitched so that only black people will watch it.
I’ve been playing the bad guy in the last seven or eight projects I’ve done. I like it. It’s a lot more interesting! Being the good guy gets a little stale after a while, you know?
My background is not typical hip-hop. I didn’t grow up in the projects. I grew up in a single family home in a middle-class suburb. That doesn’t mean I didn’t experience hardship, but to me it’s not about that, it’s about the future and where we are trying to take it.
NATO has a special relationship with countries far away from Europe: Australia, Japan, South Korea. They have joint projects and programmes which are being implemented without these countries becoming members of NATO.
Little Zac had it easy – but he didn’t realize he had it easy, so he took it for granted. I think going through ‘Hairspray’ and other projects helped me learn about the business and life in general.
I think the general public’s response to my projects is very strong. You can be an intellectual and say that popularity detracts from architectural quality. On the other hand, you can see in the public’s identification something very positive.
All our projects are like fabulous expeditions. The story of each project is unique. Our projects have no precedent.
I decided I could develop a toy and get some revenue from that and then use that revenue to really become an inventor and work on some of the more challenging projects I had in mind.
I just like artist-driven projects, but for artists themselves: artist spaces, artist mentor programs, and artists buying buildings and making lofts. Doing whatever we can do. Because at the end of the day, I really think that we as a community only have each other.
I get up at sunrise. I’m a Buddhist, so I chant in the morning. My wife and I sit and have coffee together, but then it’s list-making time. I have carpentry projects. We have roads we keep in repair. It’s not back-breaking, but it’s certainly aerobic and mildly strenuous.
Your first projects aren’t the greatest things in the world, and they may have no money value, they may go nowhere, but that is how you learn – you put so much effort into making something right if it is for yourself.
As an adult I wasn’t dying to participate in sci-fi projects.
Delayed energy projects and regulatory hurdles to domestic oil production not only cost the United States economy billions of dollars and millions of jobs, but they also stand in the way of an elusive goal: true American energy security.
I used to read a lot about myself and the projects I was doing. When I was only acting, I wouldn’t read any reviews because I didn’t find them to be very helpful.
The way I choose projects is based on what I think is most real and most interesting, not on what’s paying the most money or what’s most popular.
In my district, the budget scales back and eliminates several long-term shore protection projects important to the safety and economic security of Long Island.
You make your first album, you make some money, and you feel like you still have to show face, like ‘I still go to the projects.’ I’m like, why? Your job is to inspire people from your neighborhood to get out. You grew up there. What makes you think it’s so cool?
I think I am incredibly generous with how much I give to my projects, but that’s my generosity with the job.
When I was a child, I was living in the housing projects of Philadelphia. I didn’t even have a Christmas tree.
I admit, I do a lot of projects, but it’s because I’m in a position now where I’m reading a lot more scripts and plays and things, and I’m really listening to offers and trying to think what I want to do at any given time.
Mike Judge is very specific about how people look in his projects, and I think it’s because he’s an animator.
As president of the American Historical Association, I started a programme to make dissertations into e-books in 1999. Before I knew it, I was involved in other electronic projects. Harvard invited me to become director of the libraries in 2007.
I had saved a few hundred photos of dodo skeletons into my ‘Creative Projects’ folder – it’s a repository for my brain, everything that I could possibly be interested in. Any time I have an Internet connection, there’s a sluice of stuff moving into there, everything from beautiful rings to cockpit photos.
The Journey of Reconciliation was organized not only to devise techniques for eliminating Jim Crow in travel, but also as a training ground for similar peaceful projects against discrimination in such major areas as employment and in the armed services.
The greatest thing has been that projects that were pipe dreams before ‘Whiplash’ are now feeling more realistic.
The transaction cost approach maintains that some projects are easy to finance by debt and ought to be financed by debt. These are projects for which physical-asset specificity is low to moderate.
As a fan, I want all of the Marvel TV projects to be successful. I am a comic book fan.
I started on the use of the Internet for scientific communication. Our research group was one of the very first to make really systematic use of it as a way of managing research projects.
I spearhead interior design for all Trump projects.
In order to encourage private investors to pursue long-term, responsible projects, governments need to promote consistent policies and frameworks.
I never want projects to be finished; I have always believed in unfinished work. I got that from Schubert, you know, the ‘Unfinished Symphony.’
At the National Institute for Medical Research, I came into contact with biological scientists and formed collaborative projects with several of them. In particular, George Popjak and I shared an interest in cholesterol.
As movies and TV projects come up, they go out to the agents, and we just go out and audition for them.
There’s competition in every field, and that’s healthy. It makes you work harder and be your best. Competition, not in terms of money or number of projects, but in the quality of your work, is very healthy.
I concentrate on doing good projects.
I learned to focus my energy on high-quality, long-term projects rather than lower-quality projects with quicker payoffs.
I always felt that, when I saw Denzel or Viola do scenes in their past films or past projects, that if it’s a heavy scene, and it’s requiring a lot of emotional weight, that we would have nothing but silence and incense burning in between takes just to keep things quiet.
I also hope that I am occasionally involved in projects that touch other people in ways that make their lives a little better, more interesting for the moment that makes them think.
With his compulsively slamming lyrics and king-of-the-world delivery, DMX intuitively echoes the existentialism of the projects of the novelist Donald Goines.
Getting organized in the normal routines of life and finishing little projects you’ve started is an important first step toward realizing larger goals. If you can’t get a handle on the small things, how will you ever get it together to focus on the big things?
Some projects feel like the stars are aligning for them from the very beginning.
I really want to be associated with great projects and character driven projects and films. I have to feed my soul, and keep feeling like an artist and keep being challenged.
Early in my career, I was involved with engineer-led projects, where designers came in late in the game and were expected to put lipstick on an existing code base. This almost never works.
When I do watch shows, or projects that I’ve been a part of, I’m pretty good at watching them objectively. And that’s mostly because I want to see how it came out overall, what the overall story was and how it came together visually, what my mates were doing.
I’ve built two wooden houses near Vals. I built them for my wife. Those were private projects.
Forrest Mims is the author of the famous book ‘Getting Started in Electronics,’ published by RadioShack for many years. I bought the book in the 1980s and had a blast making the projects in it. When I was editor-in-chief of ‘MAKE,’ I asked Forrest to write a column for the magazine, called ‘The Backyard Scientist.’
I just like to choose projects that will allow me as an artist to make my art.
When I’m playing with the band or playing with some projects or some of my own stuff it’s about the musical approach. That would be the more turntablist approach to things of where it’s strictly about music.
I’ve had projects before where everyone says ‘This is going to be the big thing,’ and it doesn’t really turn out to be. Then there is a little project you do and forget about, and then it comes out, and it’s huge.
My artistic manifesto exists in the world as poetry. So even though most of the things that I’ve done have been on other people’s projects or could be pigeonholed in certain ways, that’s not how I perceive myself.
A lot of acting projects and endorsement opportunities are coming my way.
Some writing and production projects will be a great way to spend my elderly rock years.
