Amazing People: Quentin Tarantino

-Quentin Tarantino, director, Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill and Inglourious Basterds.

Amazing People: Ellen Page

Amazing People: Emma Stone

"I realize I have a lot of amazing opportunities, but I don't know how you can play a human being going through real human experiences without being able to walk down the street. If you can't live a real life, how do you play a real person? It always confuses me when actors work back-to-back-to-back with no break. If you live your life on a film set, how the hell can you relate to real people? You don't know what its like to not have people fussing over you all day, and that's not life - that's silly movies. I will always want to take breaks and I wouldn't be OK with losing that."

-Emma Stone, actress, Superbad, Zombieland and Easy A.

Amazing People: Cillian Murphy

Amazing People: Marion Cotillard

"My parents always told me that if you want something, you can do whatever you have to do to get it. As long as it's not against someone else."

-Marion Cotillard, actress, La Vie En Rose, Public Enemies and Inception.

Amazing People: Andrew Garfield

“I hated school, I hated school. And I didn’t realize why. I thought I was…I was, I thought there was something wrong with me for hating school, for not being able to deal with school. At the time it was ingrained in me that school was: if you’re not successful in school you’re not going to be successful in life. And the hierarchy with the subjects at school, like the arts are given no credence. And if they are, it’s false credence. So, I look back on it and and I’m angry. I’m angry about it because, you know, there might be a brilliant ballerina somewhere in school who’s being forced to do maths, and she sees it difficult. But if she’s just allowed to express whatever gifts she has to offer then she would be happy and then she could make hundreds of thousands of other people joyous for a couple of hours per night.”

-Andrew Garfield, actor, The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus, Never Let Me Go and The Social Network.

Amazing People: Cate Blanchett

-Cate Blanchett, actress, The Aviator, I'm Not There and The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.

Amazing People: Jesse Eisenberg

"I’ve never had tastes of people my own age. All of my friends when I was 15 were in their 40s. I’m not actually mature, just very self-conscious around people my own age because I feel like I’m supposed to act the same way they act and I don’t know how."

-Jesse Eisenberg, actor, Adventureland, Zombieland and The Social Network.

Amazing People: Anne Hathaway

...and a happy birthday to the woman herself!

-Leonardo DiCaprio, actor, The Aviator, Revolutionary Road and Inception.

...and a very happy birthday to the man himself!

Amazing People: Amy Adams

"Find out who you are and embrace it. It is so much easier to face criticism when you are comfortable in your own skin. Never let anyone or anything stop you unless it is you."

-Amy Adams, actress, Enchanted, Doubt and Julie & Julia.

Amazing People: Joseph Gordon-Levitt

"The whole concept of celebrity pisses me off. While I`m not a celebrity, it`s such a weird concept that society has cooked up for us. Astronauts and teachers are much more amazing than actors."

-Joseph Gordon-Levitt, actor, Brick, (500) Days of Summer, Inception.

Amazing People: Vera Farmiga

'I really don't feel a need to be famous. But I do feel a need to make a difference, to shed light on human emotion through acting.'

10 quotes from Fight Club that deserve to be in a modern bible.

Edward Norton as Narrator. The guy is seriously fucked up.

Fight Club has officially changed the way I see the world. No, I am not running off to go and punch some random people, but there are some quotes which some people really should adopt as their motto in life. These are mostly spoken by Tyler Durden. Who knew Brad Pitt could really be God?



Use soap. That's the first of Tyler's philosophies.



"Only after disaster can we be resurrected."-Tyler Durden

"It's only after we've lost everything that we're free to do anything."-Tyler Durden 

"The things you own end up owning you."-Tyler Durden

"Listen to me! You have to consider the possibility that God does not like you. He never wanted you. In all probability, he hates you. This is not the worst thing that can happen."-Tyler Durden

"If you wake up at a different time in a different place, could you wake up as a different person?"-Narrator

 "Without pain, without sacrifice, we would have nothing. Like the first monkey shot into space."-Tyler Durden 

"I flipped through catalogues and wondered: What kind of dining set defines me as a person?"-Narrator

"With insomnia, nothing's real. Everything's far away, everything's a copy."-Narrator

"Hitting bottom isn't a weekend retreat. It's not a goddamn seminar. Stop trying to control everything and just let go! LET GO!"-Tyler Durden

"Fuck what you know. You need to forget about what you know, that's your problem. Forget about what you think you know about life, about friendship, and especially about you and me."-Tyler Durden 

I think Fight Club is one of the most philosophical movies of all time. In it's own, dark little way.
