We have to always hope in humanity that people will make the right choices.
There is no hope even that woman with her right to vote will ever purify politics.
We will have to give up the hope that if we try hard we somehow will always do right by our children. The connection is imperfect. We will sometimes do wrong.
My dear sister I hope when God Almighty in his righteous providence shall take me out of time into eternity that it will be by a flash of lightning.
Right now a lot of people are still choosing to go to Toronto instead of shooting in New York City something I haven't done and something I hope I'll never have to do.

I've convinced myself - I hope I'm right - that children despair of you if you don't tell them the truth.
Do parents sit down and tell their kids everything? I don't know. I don't know. I've convinced myself - I hope I'm right - that children despair of you if you don't tell them the truth.
The very least you can do in your life is to figure out what you hope for. And the most you can do is live inside that hope. Not admire it from a distance but live right in it under its roof.
We've got the wind at our back right now. Americans are waking up to the realities of their previous choices. We must keep America moving back to preeminence because our values and conservative ideas are the world's greatest hope.

To the former child migrants who came to Australia from a home far away led to believe this land would be a new beginning when only to find it was not a beginning but an end an end of innocence - we apologise and we are sorry.

I love being on stage if I'm not on a set. If I'm at home I'm usually in my office editing or reconstructing my website or whatever it may be.
