Thinking Get Better Results

More From Michel Gondry

When i talk to a man, i can always tell what he's thinking by where he is looking. if he is looking at my eyes, he is looking for intelligence. if he is looking at my mouth, he is looking for wisdom. but if he is looking anywhere else except my chest he's looking for another man.

If science is to progress, what we need is the ability to experiment, honesty in reporting results—the results must be reported without somebody saying what they would like the results to have been—and finally—an important thing—the intelligence to interpret the results.
Honesty Intelligence Important
Do not depend on the hope of results. you may have to face the fact that your work will be apparently worthless and even achieve no result at all, if not perhaps results opposite to what you expect. as you get used to this idea, you start more and more to concentrate not on the results, but on the value, the rightness, the truth of the work itself. you gradually struggle less and less for an idea and more and more for specific people. in the end, it is the reality of personal relationship that saves everything.
Wisdom Struggle Reality
I know a whole generation has been raised on the notion of multiculturalism; that all civilizations are just different. no! not always. sometimes things are better! rule of law is better than autocracy and theocracy; equality of the sexes, better; protection of minorities, better; free speech, better; free elections, better; free appliances with large purchases, better! don't get so tolerant that you tolerate intolerance.
Sex Law Civilization
Long ago, i realized that success leaves clues, and that people who produce outstanding results do specific things to create those results. i believed that if i precisely duplicated the actions of others, i could reproduce the same quality of results that they had.
Long Ago People Quality
What i'm trying to do is deliver results, not promises; results, not vision; results, not concepts. the world is cynical about ibm's promises.

America People Cynical
Society is infected with rude, cynical, restless, and frivolous persons who prey upon the rest, and whom no public opinion concentrated into good manners, forms accepted by the sense of all, can reach; the contradictors and railers at public and private tables, who are like terriers, who conceive it the duty of a dog of honor to growl at any passer-by, and do the honors of the house by barking him out of sight.
Dog Sight Cynical
Flattery is like chewing gum. enjoy it but don't swallow it.
Inspirational Cynical Gum
You do the one film that you think is terrible, but it's a big studio film and you hope you'll get another job because of it, because blah blah blah, whatever it is. you know that you hate it, you just couldn't care less if it got made because it's not something in a million years you'd go and see yourself. and it ends up being shite and you just knew it was shite to begin with, and it doesn't do you any favors at all if someone thought you were in another shite film. so i decided it doesn't get me anywhere being cynical. it's not that i want to be.
Hate Thinking Cynical
