When in doubt, make a fool of yourself. There is a microscopically thin line between being brilliantly creative and acting like the most gigantic idiot on earth. So what the hell, leap.
Cynthia Heimel
The suddenness of the leap from hardware to software cannot but produce a period of anarchy and collapse, especially in the developed countries.
Marshall McLuhan
He`s terrific. I think Casino Royale (2006) is a huge step forward - a leap forward. It`s great and Daniel`s great. He got a lot of stick when he was doing it. There was a lot of negative press. He was criticized by people who didn`t have a clue what was ...
Timothy Dalton
I`m still star-struck. I`m thrilled to say that hasn`t changed. I think it has a lot to do with coming from nowhere and going somewhere. Where I grew up all there was in live entertainment was a drive-in cimnema. I`m very aware of the leap from there to h...
Richard E. Grant
You`re still much more afraid of the audience, and yet, on the other hand, you desperately want to plunge into new territory. So every once in a while, the opportunity to make this leap gets handed to you. It`s like jumping into cold water.
Sam Shepard
(on his first trip to America and landing Remington Steele) The trip to America, it was such a great joy to go there with Cassie, to take that leap of faith and go to the New World--all that nonsense you read about in books. But again it was a liberation....
Pierce Brosnan
NBC and Tim Kring took a huge leap of faith in casting me. To be worked into a show that was in production and on the schedule, is an amazing stroke of luck.
Kathryn Hahn
[talking about Reese Witherspoon]: "She has such intelligence and humor, so it was a joyous leap of faith. Working with her, I kept thinking of Holly Hunter, she is an actress who is equally at home in character roles and in leads and in comedy and in dra...

Alleged Chuck Norris Fact: "Faster than a speeding bullet ... more powerful than a locomotive ... able to leap tall buildings in a single bound... yes, these are some of Chuck Norris` warm-up exercises." I`ve got a bulletin for you, folks. I am no superma...
Chuck Norris
Now that I`m directing is where I`ve felt how difficult it is. Out of 200 or so movies made last year, only seven were directed by women. There`s been an enormous leap of women producers and heads of studios, but strangely enough, those women haven`t give...
JoBeth Williams
When I am there [Tibet], I am very happy. The Tibetans radiate. They literally send out light. His Holiness [the Dalai Lama] generates love and compassion to every human being. He has committed himself to that. I haven`t made that leap yet. I haven`t give...
Richard Gere
With acting, I started very young, and I`d performed for a lot of children in boarding schools, late at night after the dormitory lights were out. I`d have a flashlight, and I`d be Count Dracula, or Shakespeare, or Yogi Bear, and leap from bunk to bunk. I...
CCH Pounder
On how he got the role of Captain Jonathan Archer: "Kerry McCluggage and Garry Hart were both at Universal when I did Quantum Leap. We had a long and very good relationship. My production company was already at Paramount when they approached me. I was exc...
Scott Bakula
You cannot raise the standard against oppression, or leap into the breach to relieve injustice, and still keep an open mind to every disconcerting fact, or an open ear to the cold voice of doubt.
Allison Janse
When you`re young, your whole life is about the pursuit of fun. Then, you grow up and learn to be cautious. You could break a bone or a heart. You look before you leap and sometimes you don`t leap at all because there`s not always someone there to catch y...

What I`m suggesting to you is that this could be a renaissance. We may be on the cusp of a future which could provide a tremendous leap forward for humanity.
Ali Rahnema
Well, I`ve always thought that my career was in England, really. I used to do more in the theatre, and I felt that I should be there. It`s not far is it? It`s amazing the way that special FX have taken a quantum leap in what they`re capable of doing.
Albert Finney
Things can fall apart, or threaten to, for many reasons, and then there`s got to be a leap of faith. Ultimately, when you`re at the edge, you have to go forward or backward; if you go forward, you have to jump together.
Yo-Yo Ma
There is a philosophical feeling that abolishing the leap second results in greater decoupling of the time scale from rotation of the Earth, and that this is not a good thing. But we put up with daylight-savings time in the United States, and China has on...
Dennis McCarthy
There are many talented people who haven`t fulfilled their dreams because they over thought it, or they were too cautious, and were unwilling to make the leap of faith.
James Cameron
One way we can enliven the imagination is to push it toward the illogical. We`re not scientists. We don`t always have to make the logical, reasonable leap.
Stella Adler
Obviously there are times with acting when exactly what is required is just going through the motions, and when doing nothing is the best thing. But at other times, you have to make that leap beyond the immediate environment of people putting up lights on...
