Social revolutions and group revolutions are good, and we need that, but we also need personal revolution - revolution within ourselves that change who we are as people.
There are those who give with joy, and that joy is their reward.
I look at other members of my generation who have basically done one thing, and one thing well, and have been handsomely rewarded for it.
I do not believe in the God of theology who rewards good and punishes evil.
I'm not someone who comes onstage and says, 'I'm rewriting this now.' I don't think it's fair to the writers or the director, or the other actors.
According to the IRS, the wealthiest 400 Americans, who earned an average of roughly $270 million in 2008, paid an average tax rate of just 18.2 percent that year. That's about the same rate paid by a single truck driver in Rhode Island. It's not right, and we need to restore fairness to our tax code.
There's no service ribbon for people who fought in Korea. We lost over 30,000 men between 1951 and 1953 - as many as we lost in 15 years in Vietnam.
I heard that I have three ribs, that I have more surgeries than Cher - whatever they say, they say; I know who I am.
Who is richer? The man who is seen, but cannot see? Or the man who is not being seen, but can see?
The person who has lived the most is not the one with the most years but the one with the richest experiences.
When I started making music, I figured the name Rico Nasty would give a background of who I am.
I'm a quite serious actor who doesn't mind being ridiculously comic.
There's a certain relief to just being the guy who puts on the costume and walks onset and gets to prance or stomp around in a Ridley Scott or Baz Luhrmann movie.
I was so excited to work with Ridley Scott. Who wouldn't be?
History is rife with stories of directors who got so obsessed that their films went massively over budget - out of control.
It is not rifles but people who triumph, and the conclusion from all the wars is that we need better people, not better rifles - to win wars, and mainly to avoid them.
Anybody who knows me knows I'm a Marvel fanatic. I have Wolverine tatted on my right arm.
On September 11, 2001, we thought we were going to be attacked many, many times between then and now. We haven't been. I believe we had a president who made the right decision at the right time... to put us on offense against terrorists.
Anyone who has been obsessed or been in a mad love affair, sometimes you don't make the right decisions.
Increasingly, the central question is becoming who will have access to the information these machines must have in storage to guarantee that the right decisions are made.
