The American public is not aware that there might be potential allergenic and toxic reactions. With regular food at least people know which foods they have an allergy to.
You're raising a kid and you give it food and shelter and most importantly you give it the feeling that it's special. I think people react to celebrities like that - I mean they treat celebrities like children.
When we were scared about 9/11 we federalized the airport security we spent millions for body armor for dogs in Ohio. All that over-reaction comes from fear and government - bad combination.
By action and reaction do we become strong or weak according to the character of our thoughts and mental states. Fear is the deadly nightshade of the mind.
The only men who aren't in fear of women's reactions are usually men who aren't born or who are dead.
People react to fear not love they don't teach that in Sunday School but it's true.
Some of the things you read you get an immediate reaction to so I've stopped reading things now. I do worry about my family though. Some people do try some nasty things to get at them and try and get a reaction from them.
A growing awareness of the depth of popular attachment to the family has led some liberals to concede that family is not just a buzzword for reaction.
I get 0.5 seconds to react to a ball sometimes even less than that. I can't be thinking of what XYZ has said about me. I need to surrender myself to my natural instincts. My subconscious mind knows exactly what to do. It is trained to react. At home my family doesn't discuss media coverage.
I spent four months in Prague in these blue rooms reacting to nothing and you basically place your faith in the hands of the director and the special effects co-coordinator and you keep your fingers crossed and hope that the creatures look really scary.
Ultimately it's a leap of faith and a leap of imagination to put yourself back in time into those conditions and situations and see how you would react.
In Torch Song I did that character almost non-stop from 1978 until I made the movie in 1987. Then I had some failure which also colors how you react to doing other things.
Failure happens all the time. It happens every day in practice. What makes you better is how you react to it.
The environmental movement like all political processes reacts best to disasters. But these are very slow very gradual disasters in the making.
I think an old style of addressing environmental problems is ebbing but the rise of the so-called conservative political movement in this country is not a trend towards the future but a reaction to this very broad shift that we are undergoing.
There is no place where we can safely store worn-out reactors or their garbage. No place!
Now that virtually every career is an option for ambitious girls it can no longer be considered regressive or reactionary to reintroduce discussion of marriage and motherhood to primary education. We certainly do not want to return to the simplistic duality of home economics classes for girls and wood shop for boys.
The follow your dreams thing is really important because so many people are railroaded into taking other paths by their family their friends people who should be supportive going 'What are you talking about?' Even just seemingly regular career paths but if it's not what people expect for you they kind of react funny.
Death is someone you see very clearly with eyes in the center of your heart: eyes that see not by reacting to light but by reacting to a kind of a chill from within the marrow of your own life.
I wasn't sure how my dad would react. There was an agent sitting behind them and he told me he was embarrassed to watch the scenes. My parents have always been very open. They trust my decisions.
Growing up my father was a financial analyst for an oil company. He was just a regular dad. And when I would say 'Hey come see my play ' he'd say 'Sure.' He'd see one 'Oh good play' - you know very typical dad reaction.
You take a number of small steps which you believe are right thinking maybe tomorrow somebody will treat this as a dangerous provocation. And then you wait. If there is no reaction you take another step: courage is only an accumulation of small steps.
Have the courage to act instead of react.
It's really cool to know that you've put something together that isn't for a particular audience. It's so often that a TV show can really only speak to one sect of the population and this really is something that appeals to a worldwide fan base. People who are into the pursuit of knowledge. Their reaction has meant the world to us.
I hope America can also be the cultural leader of the world and use this frontier spirit to lead and show others that we need courage to go places where we have not gone before.
