A Quote by Kate Beckinsale

I feel like my brain is more geared towards a novel than it is to a movie. — © Kate Beckinsale
I feel like my brain is more geared towards a novel than it is to a movie.
Most of my training at graduate school was geared towards drama, so I feel good about it, and I can do it, but it requires a lot more work from me. I feel like with drama... well, with all acting, really, you need to honor the truth of the situation.
You see that a lot in movies, and today you see it more in movies that are made, because I feel more movies are made towards groups than towards individuals, and they're made more for mass media than for sitting in a movie house allowing it to happen.
Men will shop, but they only shop when they need something. Women shop with passion and because it's enjoyable, and for some, it's even entertainment. All you have to do is step into a mall and see how many stores are geared towards men and how many are geared towards women, and you'll get the picture.
I think comedy is more my instinct and more what I'm geared towards.
I've always enjoyed my wrestling being geared more so towards adults.
I've always been fascinated by the brain. I wrote a lot about brain-tech in my first non-fiction book, 'More Than Human.' So when I decided to write science fiction, that was the technology I gravitated towards.
When I was growing up in the 1960s, there was starting to be more books geared towards young adults.
It's very bad to write a novel by act of will. I can do a book of nonfiction work that way - just sign the contract and do the book because, provided the topic has some meaning for me, I know I can do it. But a novel is different. A novel is more like falling in love. You don't say, 'I'm going to fall in love next Tuesday, I'm going to begin my novel.' The novel has to come to you. It has to feel just like love.
From my own internal fanboy perspective, there's nothing that I hate more than seeing a three minute trailer for a movie where I feel like it's shown me the entire movie.
I think when you've got a passion for something, it comes out of you, and people can feel it. Then your mind is so geared towards that and how you can improve on it, and you're so excited about performing that it comes together.
I don't feel old, except in the morning once in a while, when I can't turn over properly and say, "What's that? When did that happen?" Our brain doesn't accept that. We're geared to last.
Commercials that are geared towards kids. I think they should just, like, wipe them out.
Everything trends towards catastrophe & collapse. I am interested, geared up & happy. Is it not horrible to be built like that?
They are more human and more brotherly towards one another, it seems to me, than we are. But perhaps that is merely because they feel themselves to be more unfortunate than us.
Man is more sensitive to the contempt that others feel towards him than to the contempt that he feels towards himself.
Public opinion is always more tyrannical towards those who obviously fear it than towards those who feel indifferent to it.
