When I realized I could use Facebook as a way to communicate directly with my fans, I thought it would be a great idea.
I think a badly crafted, great idea for a new film with a ton of spelling mistakes is just 100 times better than a well-crafted stale script.

No great idea in its beginning can ever be within the law.
It all starts with a great idea and teamwork.
I think having a great idea is vastly overrated. I know it sounds kind of crazy and counterintuitive. I don't think it matters what the idea is, almost. You need great execution.
I don't organize myself sufficiently to get an album of material together, book the studio, and go. I need to be kicked; I need to be forced physically to go in. That's how it works for me. I'll get a great idea in the house, and it'll stay there unless somebody comes and drags it out of me!
A great idea is not enough.
We came to 135 to snatch a belt, and I felt like I definitely wanted to do that. I'd be a two division, three-time world champion. So I thought it was a great idea to do, so we did it.
This happens to me: I have this great idea and then I make the mistake of telling someone else.
To me, it's all about the song. Songs are what make me excited. You hear a great song and you want to record it or get a great idea and you want to write it.
My manager came up with the idea of taking a Pro Tool rig out on the road to record every night and I thought it was a great idea.

America remains the great idea that inspires the world.

Great principles, great ideals know no nationality.
Great ideas are very much 'of the moment,' and endlessly mulling them over just takes up too much of your brain space and might block your next great idea. Act on it, give it away, or move on.
