believe race suffering
Life is suffering. Life is not resistance to suffering. The point of life is to suffer. This is why we're here: We're here to suffer. I believe in a higher power that compassionately allows suffering for us as a race, to grow and mature.
block believe journey
I think creative blocks come from people's life journeys. If you don't know who you are or what you're about or what you believe in it's really pretty impossible to be creative.
believe way realizing
I came to realize I did believe in God. I couldn't conceive of a universe without someone overseeing it in a compassionate way.
believe thinking people
I think that charity is a tricky thing, because a lot of times, people equate charity with handouts. I don't believe in handouts.
believe creativity thinking
Creativity is absolutely for everyone. I firmly believe this. I think if you're the driest accountant with the plastic pocket pen protector it's in how you interact with the world. There is artistry in everything that we do and there is expression in everything that we do.

life religion
So much about religion has to do with rigid, sacrosanct preciousness. I don't live my life that way, and I don't feel that's what Baha'u'llah teaches.
Pretty much anybody who's ever worked can relate to our show.
bad close editing rehearse screw theater
This is a show that is so made in the editing room, ... We can screw around, do bad takes, try things, really rehearse while we're shooting. It is close to theater in that way.
moved spent york
One thing I really want to do is - I spent ten years in New York doing theater before I moved to L.A. to do TV and film. I'd really like to go to back New York and do some theater.
both cast natural wake
Singing and dancing is not just for the cast of 'Glee'. We can wake up doing both and have it be a natural expression of who we are.
