Pastoral Resources

I find it very hard to sit down and create an idea or especially a new character on command. Usually my characters evolve by accident out of some story context.

George Liquor is really the richest character I have. I'm amazed there aren't 365 episodes about him on TV already.

The film was made in 1973. It was a golden time for people to experiment without risking, for example, AIDS. Today one has to be so much more careful and I don't think a character like that could exist now.

I've become a real housewife. Terry doesn't mind me working, in fact he loves me to be independent. But I only get an allowance of $15 dollars a week, which doesn't go very far.

The fact that people will pay you to talk to people and travel to interesting places and write about what intrigues you, I am just amazed by that.

While Americans have heard of Darfur and think we should be doing more there, they aren't actually angry at the president about inaction.

Surely our inaction with respect to Syria is a poor precedent if we're fighting a war on terror.

Nothing so soothes our vanity as a display of greater vanity in others; it make us vain, in fact, of our modesty.

Have not prisons - which kill all will and force of character in man, which enclose within their walls more vices than are met with on any other spot of the globe - always been universities of crime?

It's good to keep in mind that prominence is always a mix of hard work, eloquence in your practice, good timing and fortuitous social relations. Everything can't be personalized.

Though many have tried, no one has ever yet explained away the decisive fact that science, which can do so much, cannot decide what it ought to do.

Once you win a National Championship, how do you do that again? How do you get the passion to do that again? We won it again right away, the next year. A lot of it had to do with the fact that I didn't give myself an opportunity to enjoy the first one.

It is difficult to accept death in this society because it is unfamiliar. In spite of the fact that it happens all the time, we never see it.

Normal science does not aim at novelties of fact or theory and, when successful, finds none.

The Administration should never have walked away from the Kyoto Treaty. Global warming is real and it is here today. The facts aren't the issue. The policy is the issue. I think the Administration's policy on global warming is dead wrong.

One, we committed to put about 650 people in the field to focus totally on customer satisfaction.

As a matter of fact, you have deficiencies in all religions, but you have truth in all religions.

I love swimming, tennis, and I am taking up golf. I am not serious about it, I just go to the range and practice. Other than that, I enjoy going to the movies and hanging out with my friends.

My character is somebody who is smaller in stature and yet who's strong, so to see the fighting situations between people who are not generally thought of being strong is in itself unusual and therefore interesting, I think.

I loved playing Go Go, because the character's so extreme. And she's pretty close to my real character. Especially the fact that she liked her sword with a lot of accessories.
