A Quote by Jeanne Moreau

As a matter of principle, I always come to a film like a blank slate, I don't learn my lines in advance. With this approach, I feel clean.

I got to college and saw all of my friends going to these other schools and thought, 'You know, college is just a blank slate.' And I had an opportunity to go to different schools, but I chose Brown because it was unique and allowed you to be yourself as an individual and like I said, it's a blank slate.

Masi Oka

I do like to have a clean slate, especially when you're in indie film.

Riley Stearns

I may be inexperienced, but at least I come with a clean heart and a clean slate.

Naveen Patnaik

I like... piecing things together because it gives you a product that you would never have come up with just sitting down and writing on a blank slate.

Brendon Urie

I have a theory that the hosts are like babies. Whatever you do, they will learn, imitate, and do it back. It's like the purity and clarity of a newborn. If they're a clean slate, there's no agenda - just the need to survive.

Angela Sarafyan

The writing process is the time where nothing's been set in stone. It's a blank slate, or a blank page.

Leigh Whannell

We don't have to start all over again and try to keep the slate clean. There is no more slate.

Jerry Bridges

As African-Americans, we don't start with a blank slate, while other people may. In our position, there's always some sort of stereotype that is being scrutinized or that is being assumed when we come through the curtain.

Xavier Woods

The less lines, the better. I am the silent film actor, but not in a slapstick sort of way. Film is an image-based medium, so whatever you can say without the words is far more provocative and punctuating. If the lines are not funny or if they don't advance the story, sometimes it's hard. I hate talk in movies.

Callum Keith Rennie

My mind is changing all the time. I can't live in a space that has a fixed aesthetic. I just need a blank slate when I come home.

Petra Collins

Don't get seduced by your own stuff; work hard to keep a blank slate state of mind each time you watch your film.

James Cameron

Whenever people tell you they are going to wipe the slate clean, it's your slate they mean to wipe.

P. J. O'Rourke

I've got a comfortable home for my music where I can put out whatever the hell I want, and I feel like the slate is really clean, and I can get away with anything. It's a nice, free feeling.
