Any time I need to get a serious attitude adjustment I put on one of their records and there are examples there for all time to keep us honest and keep us reaching they'll never be eclipsed.

The phenomenon of home schooling is a wonderful example of the American can-do attitude. Growing numbers of parents have become disenchanted with government-run public schools. Many parents have simply taken matters into their own hands literally.

Raising a small child as a woman while travelling 10 months out of the year would I believe be something I would not be able or even want to do although with the amazing example of Leila I am no longer so sure.

I think that marriage is an amazing institution and should be preserved and you can have great marriages and you must because sharing your life with someone is like the greatest thing. And I loved being able to set a good example for that on television.

I hate the stereotype of the pitfalls of the child actor. There are so many amazing examples - Natalie Portman Joseph Gordon-Levitt Jodie Foster Drew Barrymore - of people who have made it through.

The attitude is we live and let live. This is actually an amazing change in values in a rather short time and it's an example of freedom from religion.

I have a lot of amazing women you know women in my life who have been an example for me of what not to do.

If there's ever an example that military power alone cannot be successful in Afghanistan I think it was the Soviet experience.

In my cranky old age I actually prefer recording alone now on 'The Simpsons ' for example because I find that the director can just focus on what I'm doing and I can do a lot of variations. A lot of times when I record with a group I'll stay after class for another hour or two.

Liberal that I am I support health-care reform on its merits alone. My liberal blood boils for example when I read that half of the personal bankruptcies in this country are brought on in part by medical expenses.
