I work more now because at this time of my life I am not disturbed from my aim by outside pressures such as family passionate relationships dealing with 'who am I?' - those complications when one is searching for one's self.
I love where I'm from. I don't live there because of the circumstances but all my family is there. It's what's inside it's not what's outside that determines the culture and the feeling.
I realised how paranoid and guarded and not trusting - walled-in - I had become. Not consciously so but just this armour that I kind of have protective armour. It's not for my friends or family but for being.outside in the world always on guard.
In God's family there are no outsiders no enemies.
My father was brought up in an orphanage in the Catskills. He was a factory worker. And because his family wasn't there for him family was everything. We could disagree inside the house but outside the house it was us against the world. So when I became a drag actor he looked sideways but said okay.
Learn to enjoy every minute of your life. Be happy now. Don't wait for something outside of yourself to make you happy in the future. Think how really precious is the time you have to spend whether it's at work or with your family. Every minute should be enjoyed and savored.
There are many countries where you can only believe more or you can believe less. But in the United States we have this incredible smorgasbord and it really interests me why people are drawn to one faith rather than another especially to a system of belief that to an outsider seems absurd or dangerous.
Faith is a dynamic and ever-changing process not some fixed body of truth that exists outside our world and our understanding. God's truth may be fixed and unchanging but our comprehension of that truth will always be partial and flawed at best.
We will never fully explain the world by appealing to something outside it that must simply be accepted on faith be it an unexplained God or an unexplained set of mathematical laws.
A quest for knowledge is not a war with faith spirituality is not usually an infelicitous amalgam of superstition and philistinism and moral relativism taken outside midfield leads inexorably both to heresy and to secular wickedness which are often identical.
With a lot of films people are sitting on the outside looking in but I want the audience to get a bit more intimately involved with what's going on so that they maybe can experience it a little bit more intensely.
A great deal has been written in recent years about the purported lack of motivation in the children of the Negro ghettos. Little in my experience supports this yet the phrase has been repeated endlessly and the blame in almost all cases is placed somewhere outside the classroom.
A spy like a writer lives outside the mainstream population. He steals his experience through bribes and reconstructs it.
Creativity comes from looking for the unexpected and stepping outside your own experience.
That peace which is within us we must experience it. And if we are searching for peace outside we will never find the peace within.
Historically musicians know what it is like to be outside the norm - walking the high wire without a safety net. Our experience is not so different from those who march to the beat of different drummers.
Refusal to believe until proof is given is a rational position denial of all outside of our own limited experience is absurd.
Many people know so little about what is beyond their short range of experience. They look within themselves - and find nothing! Therefore they conclude that there is nothing outside themselves either.
As a partner in a firm full of women who work outside of the home as well as stay at home mothers all with plenty of children gender equality is not a talking point for me. It is an issue I live every day.
I don't feel I'm qualified to be a coach outside the high school level. I think I would need to do more education to really be a good coach.
Let woman out of the home let man into it should be the aim of education. The home needs man and the world outside needs woman.
Those outside of autism need to understand this is an epidemic and we need more government funding insurance coverage and education reform.
Education is our only political safety. Outside of this ark all is deluge.
As soon as I became old enough to make my dreams my reality I became a firm believer that the subconscious and the world outside of our flesh and blood is essentially the truth.
