What I had to prove was that I had a dedication and a desire and a passion to do the work and everything else would fall in place because I have a vision that I want to portray and it did and I do it. I don't sell anything.

I find in working always the disturbing intrusion of elements not a part of my most interested vision and the inevitable obliteration and replacement of this vision by the work itself as it proceeds.

The latest wrinkle is on wrinkles. There is a widespread belief that women can't grow old in television news.

Women didn't want to watch other women on television because they were jealous of their husbands' diverted attention.

If we can return to a government that the Founders in their wisdom envisioned for us we can return to a government that will allow our economy to thrive again and our people to live in liberty.

You know how people always talk about how vision is the key to entrepreneurship and perseverance and really seeing what other people don't see? We can actually redeem a fair amount of that folk wisdom.

I always prayed that God would give me the wisdom and the vision to do the things on this earth that I was supposed to do to express His life and love and His will.

Many people have their reputations as reporters and analysts because they are on television batting around conventional wisdom. A lot of these people have never reported a story.

I always envisioned myself having a traditional and elegant wedding.

You may invite the entire 35th Division to your wedding if you want to. I guess it's going to be yours as well as mine. We might as well have the church full while we are at it.

Ants are so much like human beings as to be an embarrassment. They farm fungi raise aphids as livestock launch armies into war use chemical sprays to alarm and confuse enemies capture slaves engage in child labour exchange information ceaselessly. They do everything but watch television.

Television brought the brutality of war into the comfort of the living room. Vietnam was lost in the living rooms of America - not on the battlefields of Vietnam.

The facts of life are that a child who has seen war cannot be compared with a child who doesn't know what war is except from television.

So when you go to a set and you just fully trust everybody you know how hard everybody's working you know that the people doing it are good and have such a strong vision - that's exactly my experience on 'New Girl ' and what my experience on 'Veronica Mars' was like. Everybody was just so great.

And I believe that public broadcasting has an important trust with the American people it's an intimate medium of television and that we can do reading and language development for young children without getting into human sexuality.

And as I've gotten deeper into the process of making films and television and such I think I have more trust in the fact that you really never know what you're going to find after the twenty-fifth take.

Everything has been homogenized. Over time with television and jet travel everybody has blended together. Some of our wonderful charm has been lost.

I would like to host a show something like travel or cooking or something like that something I'm really interested in and so I'm pitching a couple television shows.

And as a character what I found very inspiring about playing Dharma especially at that time is that the women on television were more neurotic than they were free. And I thought this is a rare bird and this is unique on television and I think it's really refreshing.

One of the most pervasive political visions of our time is the vision of liberals as compassionate and conservatives as less caring.

Time has no divisions to mark its passage there is never a thunder-storm or blare of trumpets to announce the beginning of a new month or year. Even when a new century begins it is only we mortals who ring bells and fire off pistols.

Television is a medium of entertainment which permits millions of people to listen to the same joke at the same time and yet remain lonesome.

I find television very educating. Every time somebody turns on the set I go into the other room and read a book.

I'm thankful that my memory is good because my vision is going.
