Life holds many, many, many mysteries, abstract things we all think about. In a film when things get abstract, some people don't appreciate that and they want to leave the theater.

So when ideas come along that have those things, I'm falling in love and going to work.

Also, when we did "Smallville," we didn't have an opportunity to interact with people who watched the show. And see what they had to say and listen to criticism and listen to praise at the same time.

And I'm actually very curious what people think of the show. For us, it's been a passion project of ours, and an incredibly challenging show to make.
To learn your artistry and to be able to perfect that, is overwhelming. Especially when you are exuding love.

"Less is more" can be a call to identify what it is we really need and appreciate doing for its own sake, as opposed to what we have been socialized into wanting, often to our detriment, or becoming consumed by activity that we would never do for its own sake but only for the sake of something else.
