Sometimes it's an external approach where one can learn the skills required, let's say, learn to play the trumpet and in that process other things happen. It's magical: through the process of practicing four hours a day you start focusing on emotion and when you pick up the trumpet it's filled with feeling.

Mindfulness is a quality that's always there. It's an illusion that there's a meditation and post-meditation period, which I always find amusing, because you're either mindful or you're not.
Richard Gere
Image
Always walk towards open doors. And if they slam shut in your face, kick that sucker in and keep going.

Image
Why is it when we have 10 million people in this country who say 'No', we still have a president who says 'Yes.' In a democracy, something's wrong here.
Richard Gere
Image
I've always said it's flattering to be desired, just as it's flattering that people accept the reality of the character you play. But it was always ridiculous to assume that because I could play a gigolo on screen I'd play anything like that role off screen.
Richard Gere
Image
I'm not that tough I'm not that smart. I need life telling me who I am, showing me my mind constantly. I wouldn't see it in a cave.

I have a lot of beautiful friends.
