I think it's necessary to keep moving forward. I've always said that nostalgia is death, really for anyone creative.
I'm kind of loath to pick one project over another or whatever. You go into every film sort of thinking it'll be your best work, and that's necessary. I think in this business, you really have to be forward-looking the whole time. I think nostalgia is sort of the death knell for any artist.
I admire anyone who takes risks, especially in a creative sense, and who doesn't play it safe. Those are the people who keep things moving forward.
I look at Anderson Silva and he can fight moving forward, he can fight moving backward, and he can fight moving left or right. It's something that I don't think anyone else in the sport other than Chuck Liddell has really been able to do.
I need to keep moving my game forward, because Test batsmen will keep moving their games forward.
I think quality will be increasingly important-we're moving away from a time of fast fashion. But really, the only constant in fashion is that you must keep moving forward, otherwise you'll be left behind.
I think it's really important as a creative director, to always keep your ears on the ground and always surround yourself with people who've been in the business longer than you to really think of new and creative ways to present your designs to girls.
There's really no secret about our approach. We keep moving forward - opening up new doors and doing new things - because we're curious. And curiosity keeps leading us down new paths. We're always exploring and experimenting. We call it Imagineering - the blending of creative and imagination with technical know-how.
I've always said that the artist dies twice. And the first death is the hardest which is the career death, the creative death. The physical death is an inevitability.
It isn't necessary to imagine the world ending in fire or ice. There are two other possibilities: one is paperwork, and the other is nostalgia. Eventually within the next quarter of a century, the nostalgia cycles will be so close together that people will not be able to take a step without being nostalgic for the one they just took. At that point, everything stops. Death by Nostalgia.
I think the only way for you to grow and evolve is to keep listening, keep moving forward, keep jumping in and trying to experience.
When you write a novel or paint a picture, you have the opportunity to approach it and back off, tear up pages, write, rewrite, paint over, and come back to it. In film, once you start shooting, you can't restart the clock, and you keep moving forward, and you don't look back, and you don't go back. And that is, of course, antithetical to the creative process. It's really hard to generate a comfortable creative flow under that kind of pressure.
I think there is no mantra for success. One just has to be positive and keep doing good work. One must keep moving forward and not think much.
Most of us grew up with video games in the household, either the original Nintendo in the living room or hoarding quarters for that trip to the arcade. And as time moves on, that line of nostalgia will keep moving forward where 'Frogger' gets replaced with 'Street Fighter 2' or 'Resident Evil 4.'
I've added to my abilities since moving to Bournemouth. You are always having to re-learn how to be a centre-forward as the game is moving forward.
You are always a student, never a master. You have to keep moving forward.
Moving forward is not always good, especially when there is a precipice ahead! Know to turn back! Know to step back! Sometimes moving backwards is moving forward!
