I could honestly listen to Ethan Hawke all day, it’s not just endless platitudes full of hot air, I can tell he’s such a genuine deep thinker

I love listening to Ethan Hawke talk about art, movies, acting, directing, etc. I feel like he just always has the perfect words to communicate exactly what he’s trying to get across.

i realized while watching this, I'm not afraid I won't achieve my artistic goals. I'm afraid my contribution won't be worthy of those who've inspired me and helped me with theirs

"Medicine, law, business, engineering—these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love... these are what we stay alive for."

Art is a perfect representation of the humans life on earth. I wish I could manifest how important I think art is to us

art is just another form of self expression like talking and we only understand how great and better it is sometimes once the current ways to express ourselves end up being of no use to us

Sometimes i genuinely feel so lucky that I love art as much as I do sometimes. I know everybody I know doesn’t feel the same way about it I do. For that I feel sorry for them in a way

The fact he said it’s sustenance and not simply substance says so much about his insight. Hes right, it is what fuels us. We consume it to better our lives.

Art is born from emotion. The blood of many men is disturbing and morbid until it is put into poetry. The dead flower has lost its value until it is put into art. Art can make anything beautiful and powerful. That is the power of art, it is almost infinitely powerful.
