People come to Cannes just to advertise their films, not with a particular message. But the advantage is that if you go to the festival, you get so much press coverage in three days that it advertises the film for the rest of the year.


Jean-Luc Godard

A little girl who finds a puzzle frustrating might ask her busy mother (or teacher) for help. The child gets one message if her mother expresses clear pleasure at the request and quite another if mommy responds with a curt 'Don't bother me - I've got important work to do.'


Daniel Goleman

That is very different from how it used to be in the 20th century. Media was very one way. There's a small little industry.

I think that's healthy and actually restoring a more natural way.


Joseph Gordon-Levitt

I've always been a fan of the 19th century novel, of the novel that is plotted, character-driven, and where the passage of time is almost as central to the novel as a major minor character, the passage of time and its effect on the characters in the story.


John Irving

Gunter Grass

Sometimes I can tackle an issue -homelessness, tobacco litigation, insurance fraud, the death penalty - and wrap a good story around it. These are the best books, the ones with a story and a message.


John Grisham

Travel gives me the opportunity to walk through the sectors of cities where one can clearly see the passage of time.


Jerzy Kosinski

Suffering makes a people greater, and we have suffered much. We had a message to give the world, but we were overwhelmed, and the message was cut off in the middle. In time there will be millions of us - becoming stronger and stronger - and we will complete the message.


David Ben-Gurion
