Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance.
The minute you or anybody else knows what you are you are not it, you are what you or anybody else knows you are and as everything in living is made up of finding out what you are it is extraordinarily difficult really not to know what you are and yet to be that thing.
But I never really thought that I would be extraordinarily successful at skating, it's just something that happened, you know.
You know, heroes are ordinary people that have achieved extraordinary things in life.
Corky is an ordinary person who does extraordinary things. He is a true inspiration, but he doesn't know that he's an inspiration.
I don't know how to overcome this perception that I'm extravagant.
Everyone thinks these are self-portraits but they aren't meant to be. I just use myself as a model because I know I can push myself to extremes, make each shot as ugly or goofy or silly as possible.
I'm not an extremist, you know.
As I got into high school and after puberty, I was a little more inward. I was a real extrovert when I was little, but I don't know, I just got quieter... With my friends, I was still an extrovert.
My wife is one of the most extroverted people I know. She could out-talk Oprah and Joyce Meyer simultaneously.
It's essential that you make eye contact with your audience. You've got to know what's happening out there.
I'm getting a wrinkle above my eyebrow because I just can't stop lifting it, and I love that you know.
The pro skaters I know are responsible members of society. Many of them are fathers, homeowners, world travelers and successful entrepreneurs. Their hairdos and tattoos are simply part of our culture, even when they raise eyebrows during PTA meetings.
I get kinda self-conscious. I don't want to know about my eyebrows. I'm born with them.
I have an extra set of eyelashes because you never know. I could cry or laugh, or it could be windy, and I'll need a standby pair.
Girls bat their eyelashes and act like they don't know anything in front of guys they like, or give a little bit of eye contact, but not too much, or a bit of touching. Or being coy. Sure, I do a bit of that.
The only thing I know about being Asian is that my hair is black and my eyelashes are straight and I have strange eyebrows.
The minute that you bring a unicorn into a story, you know that it's a fairy tale or a fable, because unicorns don't exist as animals. They exist as fantasy creatures.
Writers are notoriously unable to know about themselves. Faulkner thought 'The Fable' was his best novel. F. Scott Fitzgerald liked 'Tender Is the Night,' an experimental novel.
I came on board 'Clown' because it was a very simple story, and it was a very nice script and a very refreshing take on a kind of The Brothers Grimm fable, you know?
