moving ecosystems issues
Now is not the time to repudiate environmental balance, but rather it is the time for all of us to work together - politician, advocate, rancher, scientist, and citizen. Only by doing this will the United States move forward and be a leader in environmental issues and ensure sustainability to our delicate ecosystem.
compromise
I'm not good at compromise.
opportunity people together
Problems can become opportunities when the right people come together.
persons right-now
You’re never going to be the same person you are right now.
beautiful cities world
San Franciscans are very proud of their city, and they should be. It’s the most beautiful place in the world.
country war car
I was raised in California during the Second World War and into the '50s and everything was fine, everything was great. The sun always shone, everybody looked healthy and wore ties and smoked in restaurants, and there were cars for everybody - except us, because I came from a lower class neighbourhood. But [in France] I realised there was a different point of view, so when I came back to America a year and a half later I was much more focused on my own country culturally and politically.
art seductive soul
It's an honor putting art above politics. Politics can be seductive in terms of things reductive to the soul.
weekend inspire mind
Storytellers broaden our minds: engage, provoke, inspire, and ultimately, connect us.
nature thinking earth-day
I think the environment should be put in the category of our national security. Defense of our resources is just as important as defense abroad. Otherwise what is there to defend?
magic
If you could ever do a project that really has magic in it, and justifiable magic, you should do it.
point-break people hardship
I'm interested in that thing that happens where there's a breaking point for some people and not for others. You go through such hardship, things that are almost impossibly difficult, and there's no sign that it's going to get any better, and that's the point when people quit. But some don't.
technology stories film
The technology available for film-making now is incredible, but I am a big believer that it's all in the story.
food cooking healthy
Health food may be good for the conscience but Oreos taste a hell of a lot better.
canada remote
I didn't think about that because I didn't have to. We were in Canada in a very remote place and we were working there as actors. She was just Jennifer.
