Firmness in decision is often merely a form of stupidity. It indicates an inability to think the same thing out twice.
This wasn't a choice between you and Jacob. It was a choice between who I am and who I should be.
I think Hollywood is so driven by money, the people who are making the decisions are not necessarily reflective of the melting pot, so what stories are you going to want to tell? You're going to want to tell stories about yourself.
Policy decisions on climate change are being deliberated every day by those without full knowledge of the science, and often with intentional misinformation spawned by special interests.
Marriage is perhaps the most vital of all the decisions and has the most far reaching effects.
More that members of Senate know about Medicaid, in many ways, the harder it is to make that final decision, because you have got so much information, and you know how many other things are impacted here by one decision here that, five decisions later, has made a big difference in somebody's life.
It's a constant process of bouncing ideas off of one another and intuitively arriving at the right decision in the moment.

Despite his unimpressive appearance and manner, he was a brilliant fellow with a crystal-clear mind. . . . It was just that, when it came time for him to act like an executive, he was like a great many other people; when the time comes to make decisions, they have difficulty doing it.
I stand by every movie that I did. I don't regret any decision I made.
