If you think about TV series, we make 16 one-hour movies a season. You don't get any opportunity like that in movies. I mean, I can't say I'll be able to do 16 movies in the next year, and so that's how I see it.

What the mind suffered last week, or last year, it does not suffer now; but it will suffer again next week or next year.
