Biljana Popovic Ivkovic Quotes

I fear one thing most of all which is stupidity. ~ Nikola Popovic

Remember: solve one problem after another, correct one mistake after another. By no means should you do all things at the same time! Always start with what's most important, what's really urgent, and do not think about anything else until you've solved it. And then move on to what's next. Perhaps in the meantime you will think of a solution that hadn't crossed your mind before, right? ~ Biljana S. Crvenkovska

From Holy Pentecost, the day of the Holy Spirit, every God-like soul in the Church of Christ is an incombustible bush which continuously burns and is inflamed with God and has a fiery tongue within it. ~ Justin Popovic

Even after I had just done Twilight, which made $400 million at the worldwide box office, I could not get financing for three or four projects that I really loved and I thought people would love because they didn't fit some studio or investor's model of thinking, "This will definitely make money." It's a business and a film does potentially cost millions of dollars, and they have to think that they're going to get their money back somehow. ~ Catherine Hardwicke

A great sadness welled up in Magnus at the sight of him. It was human to age and die, and Jem stood outside that humanity now, outside the light that burned so brightly and so briefly.
