With the author

I haven't been that great at attending my own openings. Still, I'm learning to enjoy this a lot more than I used to.

James Turrell

We have spent billions to go to the moon - we go to this lesser satellite called the moon and say we are in space, but we are in space right now; we just don't feel ourselves to be in space. Some forms of art and some forms of spirituality do give us that sense.

James Turrell

You can't stop demographics. And show me a fence that ever worked. It didn't work at Hadrian's Wall. The Great Wall of China didn't work. The Berlin Wall.

James Turrell

I hope that when you see my work, you are looking at yourself looking.

James Turrell

I've always been interested in arrival, and coming to a space, and even to looking back at where you were.

James Turrell

I live in the sky as a pilot, so it has great meaning to me.

James Turrell

We're made for the light of a cave and for twilight. Twilight is the time we see best. When we dim the light down, and the pupil opens, feeling comes out of the eye like touch. Then you really can feel colour, and experience it.

James Turrell

I experience psychic phenomena, so people think I must be crazy. But you have to be accessible and intelligent to be a good actor. I might not have gotten the best grades in school, but I have a very high level of emotional intelligence. You have to be open to receive.

Christine Ebersole

Lord of the Rings was my first experience making movies and at the time, I had no ideas how movies were done. I thought that's the way they're done, so in a way, I had nothing to compare it to.

Orlando Bloom

You do indeed have a past, but not now! And, yes, you have a future, but not now! You can consume your now with thoughts of 'then' and 'maybe,' but that will keep you from the inner peace you could experience.

Wayne Dyer

The way we experience the world around us is a direct reflection of the world within us.

Gabrielle Bernstein

I think there's a lot of learning process in figuring out what things you want to do and shouldn't do. Maturing in that way is something that comes with experience and time.

Matt Harvey

It's been important for me to realize that, in every experience, I feel like I can learn something, grow and get stronger.

Al Horford

Going home is not necessarily a wonderful experience. It always comes with a sense of loss and makes you so conscious of the inexorable passage of time.

W. G. Sebald

Life it is not just a series of calculations and a sum total of statistics, it's about experience, it's about participation, it is something more complex and more interesting than what is obvious.
