      something to think about

      Why would you want to be a film composer? You have to be 100% dedicated, you don’t have a social life, you never get to go home, and you are forever sweating because it is one of the few jobs that does not get better. The more I write, the more I come under scrutiny, and the harder it is to come up with the next great tune that I haven’t written. After 100 movies or so, and you think 44 pieces of music in each, you do the math. It can get tricky. — Hans Zimmer
