I build a kind of wall between myself and t he model so that I can paint in peace behind it. Otherwise she might say something that confuses and distracts me.

For behind all imperialism is ultimately the imperialistic individual just as behind all peace is ultimately the peaceful individual.

In wilderness I sense the miracle of life and behind it our scientific accomplishments fade to trivia.

Music's been around a long time and there's going to be music long after Ray Charles is dead. I just want to make my mark leave something musically good behind. If it's a big record that's the frosting on the cake but music's the main meal.

But recently I began to feel that maybe I wouldn't be able to do what I want to do and need to do with American musicians who are imprisoned behind these bars music's got these bars and measures you know.

And you have a record company behind it this is a key too you need people to fight for your records at least a little bit. So if you have a great song it's catchy and you've got a little bit of help I think that's all you need. But there hasn't been that in music.

I think the drummer should sit back there and play some drums and never mind about the tunes. Just get up there and wail behind whoever is sitting up there playing the solo. And this is what is lacking definitely lacking in music today.

Who can't relate to the idea of leaving one chapter behind and moving on to the next?

Moving on is a simple thing what it leaves behind is hard.

I'm intrigued by films that have a singular vision behind them. A lot of studio movies have ten writers by the time they're done. You have a movie testing 200 times making adjustments according to various people's opinions. It's difficult to have an undistilled vision.

I use to watch like maybe three or four movies five days out of the week. I was a movie buff but I really didn't know what it was like behind the scenes or the whole political process of it.

I just feel like with independent movies... they're really free to do whatever they want. They're not afraid to make a statement about anything and there's not a huge studio behind them making sure that everything is wholesome and politically correct and all that.

Well getting behind the camera is something I've always wanted to get involved with. Ever since I was doing movies like 'Zathura' I was very interested in all the different jobs on set and kind of soaking all the information up like a sponge.

I don't get it when you get so much openness about the way movies are made and the special effects and the behind-the-scenes stuff and all of that. I can't help but feel like this reduces it a little bit.

It was like in Samoa when they'd put up a movie screen on the beach and show movies and the locals would run behind the sheet to see where the people went. It was pretty grim.

A film is - or should be - more like music than like fiction. It should be a progression of moods and feelings. The theme what's behind the emotion the meaning all that comes later.

He who stands with his face to the East in the morning will have the sun before him. If he does not change his posture the Earth in the meantime having changed its he will have the sun no longer before him but behind.
