You only learn when you give your whole being to something.

And in life, not necessarily following directions helps you get certain places - because you go to the right school you can learn the right things, and you go to the wrong school you can learn the wrong things, so it just all depends. But school doesn't really teach you how to interact with people properly, you learn that outside of school.

Robert AnthonyYou have to learn to deal with your own, for want of a better word, insecurities, fears. They don't go away. And that's normal. It's human. You don't ever really want to lose that.

And that doesn't go away ever.

Swami SatchidanandaAs important as it is to learn the techniques of cinematography, you also have to learn how to deal with the movie set, with show business.

Riane EislerDetachment doesn't mean I'm trying less hard. It just means that fears and emotions that used to torment and paralyze me no longer have the same power over me.
