People are more complicated than the masks they wear in society.
Robert Greene
Religion is the great balm of existence because it takes us outside ourselves, connects us to something larger
Robert Greene
Obviously there's Netflix, iTunes, and Amazon and all these other outlets. Fake It So Real is now on Fandor, and I think people have actually seen it there, which is fine.
Robert Greene
Some people are a little bit better than others, some people are great, some people are superior. It depends on the level of effort.
Robert Greene
The real poetry and beauty in life comes from an intense relationship with reality in all its aspects. Realism is in fact the ideal we must aspire to, the highest point of human rationality.
Robert Greene
Strike the shepherd and the sheep will scatter
Robert Greene
It's sometimes hard to talk about politics and art. Obviously, I have my core beliefs, but I think art is best when it's troublesome and pushes against stuff.
Robert Greene
When it comes to mastering a skill, time is the magic ingredient.
Robert Greene
There are people that don't need to run towards adversity. They grew up in circumstances where it's forced upon them. Other people lead, pushier lives. So there are all kinds of forms of adversity in the world.

The Crown. Place it upon your head and you assume a different post-tranquil yet radiating assurance. Never show doubt, never lose your dignity beneath the crown, or it will not fit. It will seem to be destined for one more worthy. Do not wait for a coronation the greatest emporers crown themselves.
Robert Greene
You must bear in mind that each law is circumstantial. It does depend on the circumstances.
Robert Greene
Become who you are by learning who you are.
Robert Greene
If you're just letting the time pass at your job, it's just dead time and you'll never get it back. If at that job you're learning and you're observing and you're seeing about people and connections, it's suddenly alive time.
Robert Greene
The passive ironic attitude is not cool or romantic, but pathetic and destructive.
Robert Greene
I'll probably take the prize for the most irrelevant degree. Although some of the things now where they study, you know: post feministic colonial film theory - those kind of majors, yeah, that's probably worse. But I was, you know, classics, Greek and Latin, like what's more irrelevant than dead languages, you know?
Robert Greene
I often daydream about the future, thinking of the world in 100, 200 years, imagining what it looks like, feels like. I hope that my books are like ghosts that will inhabit this future.
Robert Greene
You have the power to think differently about who you are. You have the ability to turn off the critical voice inside of you. That's not you. That's coming from the culture. That's coming from the outside of you. You've internalized the voice of your parents, your teachers, your friends.
Robert Greene
Remember: The best deceivers do everything they can to cloak their roguish qualities. They cultivate an air of honesty in one area to disguise their dishonesty in others. Honesty is merely another decoy in their arsenal of weapons.

Be Royal in your Own Fashion: Act like a King to be treated

A few years ago, for my birthday, Sean Price Williams said, I'll give you one free day of shooting. He shot Kati with an I and co-shot Fake It So Real. While we've always worked together, I didn't want him to do it for free, so he cashed in his birthday chip and came for this one day.
