Judge Roberts has assured me personally that he has a healthy respect for precedent and the hard-won rights of Americans.

It's a very complex scenario and certainly Dave was and is not the only person in Pearl Jam with personality flaws. Everybody in this band exhibits some form of neurotic behavior. And we couldn't find a balance a mutual respect for each other.

If guys don't respect themselves they don't respect other people. That's times and personalities. And all of them are not that way. But it don't take but one or two to screw up the whole crowd.

I believe that like most writers my personality comes through in the fiction. So in that respect my writing can't be like any other author's really.

My government you can be assured will be less focused on personalities. It is about treating people with respect. I think complaining about the community not being able to see the wisdom of our ideas is the wrong approach.

Among those who are satisfactory in this respect it is desirable to have represented as great a diversity of intellectual tradition social milieu and personal character as possible.

Bad acting comes in many bags various odors. It can be performed by cardboard refugees from an Ed Wood movie reciting their dialogue off an eye chart or by hopped-up pros looking to punch a hole through the fourth wall from pure ballistic force of personality like Joe Pesci in a bad mood. I can respect bad acting that owns its own style.

I have a strong belief in God... I find religion to be a very personal thing... I am also very spiritual.

We must not enable anyone to impose his personal view regarding religion on others by force oppression or pressure.

The American way was for commerce personal relationships and religion to be voluntary. No one was forced to participate in something he didn't want.
