Better life Quote by Hans Zimmer
“The thing that hasn't changed, and I don't think will ever change, is that the operative word in music is "play." You have to have a playfulness about it. As the world shifts, it's starting to understand more and more that to have a playfulness about any and everything is actually the way of having a better life, or being more creative, or being more productive.”

![“I think at the end of the day she [Rose from "Fences"] is a strong woman in the truest sense of the word. I think all of that is in the narrative; it's already there. The hope is there; the playfulness is there; it's there. I wish I could take credit for it, but it's there.” quote by Viola Davis](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/1dd/viola-davis-1174_credit_i-think-at-the-end-of-the-day-she-rose-f_288442.jpg)
