Kevin Smith
And George Carlin was a guy that the more he aged the younger he seemed.
Kevin Smith
If you're alive, kick into drive. Chase whimsies. See if you can turn dreams into a way to make a living, if not an entire way of life.
Kevin Smith
Everybody's got one killer story. It doesn't take talent to tell that story, it just takes experience.
Kevin Smith
It takes nothing to encourage an artist.
Kevin Smith
Sometimes the path you're on is not as important as the direction you're heading.
Kevin Smith
This is not an industry in which you curl up in a ball and shy away from the realities. It's a time to scream to the clouds that we're here and we've got great values and great prices. What better time to do that than the Super Bowl?
Kevin Smith
In the face of such hopelessness as our eventual, unavoidable death, there is little sense in not at least trying to accomplish all of your wildest dreams in life.
Kevin Smith
Live a Why not? life, man. Take the shot. The shot is always worth taking.
