Cary Joji Fukunaga Quotes

I don't like that guy. He calls the cops for everything. ~ Joji Tsubota

Black ice is the smoothest naturally occuring ice there is, as if nature were condescending to art ... Black ice is an act of nature as elusive as grace, and far more rare ... I have never skated on black ice, but perhaps my children will. They'll know it, at least, when it appears: that the earth can stretch smooth and unbroken like grace, and they'll know as they know my voice that they were meant to have their share. ~ Lorene Cary

I used to be a street performer, and performances on Venice Beach, it's like playing the Apollo: They let you know if they don't like you! ~ Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa

My formula for living is quite simple. I get up in the morning and I go to bed at night. In between, I occupy myself as best I can. ~ Cary Grant

People who weren't fans of the actress didn't understand that through much of the sixties, Doris Day played independent women, characters who owned their own businesses, ran households, and often didn't need a man.

Chemistry is an overused word. I prefer 'fit', that indefinable sensation when a man takes your arm as you move through a door, or leans into you to light your cigarette. (I gave up smoking for Cary and sometimes I still miss it.) Fit is an understanding between bodies: that you've been designed the same way, that you speak each other's language, and fluently. It's all about physical compatibility and has nothing to do with whether you'll last or even have anything to talk about afterwards; fit is no relation to the brain, and only a distant cousin of the heart. ~ Kylie Ladd

It takes the wool from your eyes about how the world works, to show you that nothing's necessarily fair, and that you might have a hard life. ~ Cary Fukunaga

The principal fact of life is the free mind. ~ Joyce Cary

Where can one find a profounder desolation than in the poor child who has lost its mother? ~ Joyce Cary

Life would die without poets, and democracy must have its spellbinders. ~ Joyce Cary

If you really want to tell someone you love them, you don't just go and blurt it out. There's a dance. And your movie does that. ~ Cary Fukunaga

My father sang well, and he was a handsome man. When he walked down the street, people sometimes mistook him for Cary Grant and asked for his autograph. ~ Alan Alda

It is impossible to talk about slowing climate change without talking about reducing CO2 emissions. Equally, it is impossible to talk about adapting to climate change without considering how we will feed ourselves. And it is out of the question that we can adapt agriculture without conserving crop diversity. ~ Cary Fowler

Desolate
Life is so dreary and desolate
Women and men in the crowd meet and mingle,
Yet with itself every soul standeth single,
Deep out of sympathy moaning its moan
Holding and having its brief exultation
Making its lonesome and low lamentation
Fighting its terrible conflicts alone. ~ Alice Cary

We now know that we cannot continue to put ever-increasing amounts of CO2 into the atmosphere. Actions have consequences. In fact, the consequences of past actions are already in the pipeline. Global temperatures are rising. Glaciers are melting. Sea levels are rising. Extreme weather events are multiplying. ~ Cary Fowler

Most of us take seeds for granted. The fate of human kind is resting on these genetic
resources: Seeds. So nothing could be more important. ~ Cary Fowler

I think you're crazy good at this survival stuff, Cary."
His shoulders sag. He gives me a small, relieved smile and we start walking again, his step a little lighter than it was before. It feels strange to have that kind of power over someone.
"I mean, you're crazy good at it for a stoner who couldn't seem to get his shit together academically at all," I add. ~ Courtney Summers

The only good government ... Is a bad one in a hell of a fright. ~ Joyce Cary

You can't just replace someone with a regular-looking guy who didn't say any of the lines. ~ Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa

When we got around to books, I was finally set, as our minister would say, on solid ground. I gorged on books. I sneaked them at night. I rubbed their spines and sniffed in the musty smell of them in the library. ~ Lorene Cary

Anyone who hasn't been nervous, or hasn't choked somewhere down the line, is an idiot. ~ Cary Middlecoff

Kingsley Lake, or "Silver Dollar Lake," is almost a perfect circle, spanning nearly two thousand acres with a surprising depth of ninety feet. The reason for the popular lake's unique shape and depth? It is one of Florida's many sinkholes. ~ Cary McNeal

To many people, 'biodiversity' is almost synonymous with the word 'nature,' and 'nature' brings to mind steamy forests and the big creatures that dwell there. Fair enough. But biodiversity is much more than that, for it encompasses not only the diversity of species, but also the diversity within species. ~ Cary Fowler

Loss of genetic diversity in agriculture is leading us to a rendezvous with extinction
to the doorstep of hunger on a scale we refuse to imagine. To simplify the environment as we have done with agriculture is to destroy the complex interrelationships that hold the natural world together. Reducing the diversity of life, we narrow our options for the future and render our own survival more precarious. ~ Cary Fowler

Or the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. Or Fijian headhunters. Or just normal everyday activities like drinking water, eating an orange, breathing the air, or having sex with a goat. Yes, ~ Cary McNeal

Life will teach you, but you have to live long enough to get those lessons. ~ Cary Elwes

I binge write, basically. I do a lot of prep, research, setup. I'll have a pretty detailed outline. Sort of like a beat outline. And then I'll add little notes and dialogue ideas, and I'll just create a 20-page document. ~ Cary Fukunaga

O that one unguarded moment! / Were it mine to live again, / All the strength of its temptation / Would appeal to me in vain. ~ Phoebe Cary
