I was born and raised in the high desert of Nevada in a tiny town called Searchlight. My dad was a hard rock miner. My mom took in wash. I grew up around people of strong values - even if they rarely talked about them.
My dad was very fun and very adventurous and from a formative age I learned to value men who would do things on a whim.
Dad taught us about morals values and goals. Having a tight-knit family was important to him.
But I honestly don't read critics. My dad reads absolutely everything ever written about me. He calls me up to read ecstatic reviews but I always insist that I can't hear them. If you give value to the good reviews you have to give value to the criticism.
It was my father who taught me to value myself. He told me that I was uncommonly beautiful and that I was the most precious thing in his life.

You can be cool and at the same time respect your woman who will hopefully become your wife who will hopefully become the mother of your kids. America needs to get back to family values.
Computers are scary. They're nightmares to fix lose our stuff and on occasion they crash producing the blue screen of death. Steve Jobs knew this. He knew that computers were bulky and hernia-inducing and Darth Vader black. He understood the value of declarative design.
Art must unquestionably have a social value that is as a potential means of communication it must be addressed and in comprehensible terms to the understanding of mankind.
The Bush-Cheney administration had betrayed some basic American values. So there was hunger for change.
