Today in America we are trying to prepare students for a high tech world of constant change but we are doing so by putting them through a school system designed in the early 20th Century that has not seen substantial change in 30 years.

I am not trying to change the world. I am just offering my gift that God gave me and if somebody is moved by it that's beautiful.

Often times when you face such an overwhelming challenge as global climate change it can be somewhat daunting - it's kind of like trying to lose weight which I know something about.

I enjoy trying to develop a car and Mercedes are one of the biggest car manufacturers in the world.

Yes sir a patrol car came and took me down to a station where they were trying to develop films but they hadn't got the facilities to develop colored film.

Being an actress is similar to trying to fit in with the popular kids in high school. You're expected to drive the right car wear the right clothes and say the right things.

I can't find my car keys in the morning. Trying to get out of my house is a nightmare. 'Where's my wallet? Where are my keys? I have to go find a missing person.'

Now having said that I realize that releasing a film in the real world is like trying to get General Motors to release a handmade car.

My first car was an '84 Ford Taurus. It caught on fire from me trying to change the fuel pump so that wasn't good at all. Dried leaves on the ground while I was trying to change the fuel pump. Don't do that. Do it on concrete.

I was 16 years old driving to LA and sleeping in my car just trying to make it happen.
