Film music should have the same relationship to the film drama that somebody's piano playing in my living room has on the book I am reading.

Have you ever loved somebody loved her completely but had to end the relationship for life reasons?

The way I become friends with somebody is a slow process. You can't just spill your guts and tell them everything about yourself and expect them to listen and understand you because you don't know them. It's the same thing with a relationship.

I want to be very close to someone I respect and admire and have somebody who feels the same way about me.

In the Old Testament it says that if you have the power to do something good then you have to do it. You're not to avoid helping somebody in their time of need.

My relationship to power and authority is that I'm all for it. People need somebody to watch over them. Ninety-five percent of the people in the world need to be told what to do and how to behave.

It's nice to help remember somebody who really made a very positive difference in the world.

I want to make sure that no matter how long I go through this I don't fall into the trap of changing and modifying how I do things that aren't a positive example. I want to remain somebody that the entire family can listen to or watch.

People look up to me as somebody who is able to switch the image of our country from negative to positive.

I had never had a positive leading character - somebody that wasn't an antihero or who wasn't more of a guy that you're supposed to be on the side of.
