Quotes

A. Troy Thomas

  • I've often said that a lot of mistakes can be covered by a lot of hard work.
  • When I started in the video and film business I wasn't making a lot of money. But I always felt that if you're passionate about something, then you'll become good at that something, and eventually you'll make a good living at that something.
  • I hope that our documentary "Liberty & Slavery" will cause whites to think more deeply about the unspeakable tragedy that was American slavery; and African Americans will better understand the obstacles which the Founding Fathers faced in abolishing slavery in their lifetimes.
  • I think the most important element for success in one's career, regardless of what that career might be, is being passionate about what you're doing. If you love your work, others will eventually notice, but ultimately satisfying your soul is what's most important.
  • Video production is undoubtedly my vocational passion. It's safe to say that I thoroughly enjoy what I do for a living. But there is a deeper, more profound passion that fuels my life. That passion is a personal relationship with God through His Son, Jesus Christ. Since Inertia Films founding in 1993, I have taken my company's reputation and professionalism very seriously. I'm blessed that during these last 30 years we have won numerous awards and received many accolades. But these man-given awards, although greatly appreciated, do not offer me lasting, internal satisfaction. Whereas my life was once full of unrest and chaos, it is now characterized by an internal peace that floods my soul. This peaceful security is because of the Savior of mankind, Jesus Christ.
