heart needs may
What I need to do to heal myself and to be assuring and allay the fears of others and to heal them if they had any heart wounds from something I may have said.
old-habits payback kicks
Old habits die hard, I guess. If you dont kick them, they kick you.
journey thinking differences
I think any kind of hiatus one takes in an artistic journey is going to make a huge difference. The pause will inform the choices that you make.
movie veterans-day freedom
They may take our lives, but they'll never take our freedom!
other-worlds cnn people
The whole notion of politics is they always present you with this or this or this. Nobody is the same. I'll get a newspaper to read between the lines. Why do you have to adhere to prescribed formulas that they have and people argue over them and they're all in a box. And you watch Fox claw CNN, and CNN claw Fox. Sometimes I catch a piece of the news and it seems insanity to me. I quietly support candidates. I'm not out there banging a drum for candidates. But I have supported a candidate and it's a whole other world.
writing stories brewing
I'm always writing. There is always a story brewing in my head.
life men brave-heart
Every man dies. Not every man truly lives.
hilarious sugar
What are you looking at sugar-tits?
believe thinking race
I've never treated anyone badly or in a discriminatory way based on their gender, race, religion or sexuality - period. I don't blame some people for thinking that though, from the garbage they heard on those leaked tapes, which have been edited. You have to put it all in the proper context of being in an irrationally, heated discussion at the height of a breakdown, trying to get out of a really unhealthy relationship. It's one awful moment in time, said to one person, in the span of one day and doesn't represent what I truly believe or how I've treated people my entire life.
writing people focus
There are certain things that I will do viscerally to affect people emotionally, with speed changes and sound, and various other things. Sure there are links; the same kind of sensibilities went into it and I worked on writing that script as well so there was an emphasis on a minimalisation of dialogue as far as possible, to focus on the visual and to put it in another language, of course.
change pain precursor
Pain is the precursor to change.
feminist offensive dont-like-me
Feminists don't like me, and I don't like them.
way complicated lethal-weapon
I don't make things complicated, that's the way they get all by themselves.
funny inspiring anniversary
After about 20 years of marriage, I'm finally starting to scratch the surface of what women want. And I think the answer lies somewhere between conversation and chocolate.
