More From Julius Erving

Envy is the most universal passion. we only pride ourselves on the qualities we possess, or think we possess; but we envy the pretensions we have, and those which we have not, and do not even wish for. we envy the greatest qualities and every trifling advantage. we envy the most ridiculous appearance or affectation of superiority. we envy folly and conceit; nay, we go so far as to envy whatever confers distinction of notoriety, even vice and infamy.
Passion Pride Thinking
Envy, envy eats them alive. if you had money, they’d envy you that. but since you don’t, they envy you for having such a good, bright, loving daughter. they envy you for just being a happy man. they envy you for not envying them. one of the greatest sorrows of human existence is that some people aren’t happy merely to be alive but find their happiness only in the misery of others.
Daughter Men People
Love rejoices in good wherever it finds it; envy is pained by good, and the sight of the happiness of others hurts the eyes and the heart of the envious man. love wishes to give; envy would rather receive. love creates; envy destroys. love builds up; envy pulls down. love helps those in need, comforts the afflicted, and strives to turn all that is evil into good; envy would turn the little happiness to be found in this world into evil, sorrow, and pain.
Love Hurt Pain
I wish i hadn't worked so hard; i wish i'd had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me; i wish i'd had the courage to express my feelings; i wish i had stayed in touch with my friends; and i wish i had let myself be happier. it's an extraordinary list of getting in your own way, isn't it?

When the u.s. asks for the extradition of a terrorist, if turkey doesn't have that individual on the terror list, what do we say, what do we respond? now, the individual might not be on your terror list or terrorist list. but if he is on my list, and if we have an agreement on the extradition of criminals, if i make the request, then, well, you should extradite that person. and there has been numerous examples of that mechanism working with many other nations as well, not just the u.s.

Reputation, reputation, reputation! o, i ha' lost my reputation, i ha' lost the immortal part of myself, and what remains is bestial!

Therefore keep in the midst of life. do not isolate yourself. be among men and things, and among troubles, and difficulties, and obstacles.
Character Men Obstacles
The characters are born from repetition, from repeatedly thinking about them. i have their outline in my head. i become the character and as the character i visit the locations of the story many, many times. only after that i start drawing the character, but again i do it many, many times, over and over. and i only finish just before the deadline.
Character Thinking Drawing
I feel like with every character, you try to put yourself in that person's position and just completely use your imagination. that's what i do, at least. everything is just pretend.
