Judging People Leave Me Alone

More From Itzhak Perlman

I place a higher value on work ethic than talent, because, in certain areas, you just need to cast, you need to cast actors with talent, you need to hire directors with talent, but i've worked with very talented people who have a poor work ethic, and the outcome is less desirable than people who are less talented and have an incredible work ethic.
People Work Ethic Directors
Dear god," she prayed, "let me be something every minute of every hour of my life. let me be gay; let me be sad. let me be cold; let me be warm. let me be hungry...have too much to eat. let me be ragged or well dressed. let me be sincere - be deceitful. let me be truthful; let me be a liar. let me be honorable and let me sin. only let me be something every blessed minute. and when i sleep, let me dream all the time so that not one little piece of living is ever lost.
Dream Prayer Liars
I hope my talent has something to do with it. i just think this business is so crazy. i obviously do the best i can, and the directors i admire see something in me. but this is a strange business, and there are people who are incredibly talented who never make it, who never get these opportunities. so that's why i say i'm lucky. i don't feel that i'm not talented - i think i am talented - but i also think i'm very lucky.
Crazy Opportunity Thinking
In the end it all comes down to talent. you can talk all you want about intangibles, i just don't know what that means. talent makes winners, not intangibles. can nice guys win? sure, nice guys can win - if they're nice guys with a lot of talent. nice guys with a little talent finish fourth, and nice guys with no talent finish last.
Nice Mean Winning
I don't know if anyone has noticed but i only ever write about one thing: being alone. the fear of being alone, the desire to not be alone, the attempts we make to find our person, to keep our person, to convince our person to not leave us alone, the joy of being with our person and thus no longer alone, the devastation of being left alone. the need to hear the words: you are not alone.
Writing Joy Desire
Let others lead small lives, but not you. let others argue over small things, let them complain over what might have been, but not you. let others cry over small hurts, let them be discouraged, let them be revengeful and vindictive, but not you. let others leave their future in someone else's hands, let them become materialistic and empty, but not you. let others become ungrateful and stop praying, but not you! let others give up, but not you! for you know in whom you believe and you know that he is always able. now, that's you!
