What we do know is that he’s been doing what he’s doing for a very long time, and that he seems to have created for himself a life of unalloyed advantage. He has meaningful work and meaningful friendships. He has the power to make any movie he wants and a choice of both directors and women. He can go anywhere he pleases and has lately chosen to go where he feels he can do the most good. He’s not only talented but driven. He’s dogged in everything he’s ever done, a largely unschooled man who’s learned the value of doing his homework. If, at times, talking to him about life is like talking about food with someone who’s never done anything but order from a menu — well, the menu has been both expensive and extensive, and he’s learned enough to know exactly what he likes. He is always in ferocious demand, and yet he has always been in equally ferocious control of his own life, from the time he was very young. Is there anything else we can possibly ask of him, other than to lose control of his life, for our benefit? Is there anything else we can possibly ask of any of them, be they Leonardo DiCaprio or Brad Pitt or Matt Damon? We have a prejudice about kids who become kings, in that we like to see them earn their crown, preferably by enduring some kind of trial — by going off to battle or taking speech lessons or marrying a tragic queen. But what can we possibly ask Leonardo DiCaprio to endure, to prove himself to us? Can we see him as any less a man because he made the road to manhood look so easy? - <strong><a href="http://Leonardo%20DiCaprio%20Photos%20and%20Quotes%20-%20Leonardo%20DiCaprio%20Interview%20-%20Esquire%20" target="_blank">Tom Junod, Esquire</a></strong></span><span><br/></span></p>http://sticksxstones.com/post/50310278396http://sticksxstones.com/post/50310278396Sun, 12 May 2013 22:04:00 -0400leonardo dicaprioculture<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/d0107d237c5a2311e71efb8eb57dfe17/tumblr_mmpfw51Lzj1ryujw5o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/106023578/sneaker-necklace-air-max-1-collier-mini?ref=shop_home_active" target="_blank">Air necklace</a> & keychains. </p>http://sticksxstones.com/post/50297494994http://sticksxstones.com/post/50297494994Sun, 12 May 2013 19:15:44 -0400NikeJewerly Imagine Harden developing as he has, Durant getting better like he has (he would&#8217;ve) and...http://sticksxstones.com/post/50286782486http://sticksxstones.com/post/50286782486Sun, 12 May 2013 16:51:24 -0400James HardenOKCThunderNBASportsBasketball““Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and...http://sticksxstones.com/post/50285197072http://sticksxstones.com/post/50285197072Sun, 12 May 2013 16:30:58 -0400Mark Twain<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/541d380d49861076585a325f2673eae5/tumblr_mmp4x2KQ2f1ryujw5o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Word to all your mothers. </p>http://sticksxstones.com/post/50271822389http://sticksxstones.com/post/50271822389Sun, 12 May 2013 13:36:00 -0400MothersdayTypographyMom<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/d5cf52e8703fe30486bcf2bc626891fc/tumblr_mmidqv7dGT1ryujw5o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Speakeasy get in free cards. </p>http://sticksxstones.com/post/50192308168http://sticksxstones.com/post/50192308168Sat, 11 May 2013 16:30:58 -0400SpeakeasyGatsbyBoardwalkHistoryCulture<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/ec486079b34d791b6f76f203fbd3ee68/tumblr_mmncwkYCBP1ryujw5o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://sticksxstones.com/post/50184037537http://sticksxstones.com/post/50184037537Sat, 11 May 2013 14:34:37 -0400Kate UptonNerdWomen I DROP MEGATON BOMBS Thirteen years later, Liquid Swords continues to age well and is a stellar...http://sticksxstones.com/post/50088972832http://sticksxstones.com/post/50088972832Fri, 10 May 2013 10:04:52 -0400GoodreadsLongreadsCultureWu-Tang
