On set is where I feel comfortable. The red carpet stuff talking about the film explaining your own life it doesn't come naturally. It's all necessary stuff I suppose but it's not my strength.
My workouts include aerobic exercise for a healthy cardiovascular system strength training to maintain muscle tone and bone density core strength exercise for a stable mid-section and stretching to maintain mobility.
Nothing symbolizes American strength and vigor more than another unaccountable Washington bureaucrat.
I've come to the conclusion that beautiful women in the West aren't comfortable finding strength in their femininity. They want to do masculine-oriented things to establish their femininity. It's a contradiction.
Strength does not come from physical capacity. It comes from an indomitable will.
It's kind of ironic that the two sports with the greatest characters boxing and horse racing have both been on the decline. In both cases it's for the lack of a suitable hero.
In the seventies we had to make it acceptable for people to accept girls and women as athletes. We had to make it okay for them to be active. Those were much scarier times for females in sports.
The American people are sheep. They're comfortable rich working. It's like the Romans they're happy with bread and their spectator sports. The Super Bowl means more to them than any right.
There was endless action - not just football but sailboats tennis and other things: movement. There was endless talk - the ambassador at the head of the table laying out the prevailing wisdom but everyone else weighing in with their opinions and taking part.
Well you got to remember bin Laden killed 3 000 Americans and in some ways he and his ideology killed tens of thousands of his fellow Muslims including Pakistanis. I understand that that was provocative and complicated for Pakistan but only if you accept the idea that he was an acceptable member of Pakistani society.
That person has to be accountable for himself. I think that's what we have to do in society today is to be accountable for yourself. I think we have the tendency to always want to live someone else's life.
All of us in society are supposed to believe that cruelty to animals is wrong and that it is a good thing to prevent needless suffering. So if that is true how can meat be acceptable under any but the most extraordinary circumstances such as perhaps roasting the bird who died flying into a window?
In hindsight it may even seem inevitable that a socialist society will starve when it runs out of capitalists.
We have to challenge the whole idea that it's acceptable for a society like Britain to have such a significant number of people who do not work one day of the week and don't have any possibility of improving the quality of their lives.
We do a disservice to society if we ignore the evidence which shows that stable families tend to be associated with better outcomes for children.
Stabilizing the euro is one thing healing the culture that surrounds it is another. A world in which material values are everything and spiritual values nothing is neither a stable state nor a good society. The time has come for us to recover the Judeo-Christian ethic of human dignity in the image of God.
I would argue that we have a generation of young people particularly minorities who are no longer putting up with the kinds of things their parents put up with. They're much more self-confident. It's no longer acceptable to make fun of people because of race or sex. But it has always been present in American society.
A society that has made 'nostalgia' a marketable commodity on the cultural exchange quickly repudiates the suggestion that life in the past was in any important way better than life today.
But hey when you live in Watts you need a little smack to get by you know what I mean? You need something soft and comfortable in your life 'cause you're not going to get it from what's around you. And society isn't going to give it to you.
The individual is not accountable to society for his actions in so far as these concern the interests of no person but himself.
Society cares for the individual only so far as he is profitable.
Suicide moreover was at the time in vogue in Paris: what more suitable key to the mystery of life for a skeptical society?
A society deadened by a smothering network of laws while finding release in moral chaos is not likely to be either happy or stable.
We live in a society of victimization where people are much more comfortable being victimized than actually standing up for themselves.
