Society is a republic. When an individual tries to lift themselves above others they are dragged down by the mass either by ridicule or slander.

No one would talk much in society if they knew how often they misunderstood others.

One of the most important responsibilities in the Christian life is to care about others smile at them and be a friend to the friendless.

First I want to pay tribute to Diana myself. She was an exceptional and gifted human being. In good times and bad she never lost her capacity to smile and laugh nor to inspire others with her warmth and kindness. I admired and respected her - for her energy and commitment to others and especially for her devotion to her two boys.

A smile is the light in your window that tells others that there is a caring sharing person inside.

I do love science fiction but it's not really a genre unto itself it always seems to merge with another genre. With the few movies I've done I've ended up playing with genre in some way or another so any genre that's made to mix with others is like candy to me. It allows you to use big mythic situations to talk about ordinary things.

Science is based on the possibility of objectivity on the possibility of different people checking out for themselves the observations made by others. Without that possibility there is no empirical principle capable of deciding between different arguments and theories.

A powerful attraction exists therefore to the promotion of a study and of duties of all others engrossing the time most completely and which is less benefited than most others by any acquaintance with science.

In LA I mean here's this place full of desperate and sad people who take their only pleasure from destroying others for the purposes of their own self-aggrandizement.

What's sad is that there is an addictive quality to that to believing your own hype to allowing yourself to become validated by others and no longer by yourself. That's the danger of celebrity.
