You know when youre in a movie and you dont know anybody…
“You know when youre in a movie and you dont know anybody else in the theater and the most beautiful thing happens on the screen? Everybody there feels this overwhelming sense of whatever that emotion is? Youre surrounded by strangers but youre all feeling the same thing. The feeling is intensified because its being shared by three hundred people all at the same instant. Thats what we try to do, too.”
