Harvey Pekar: You don't have any problems with moving to Cleveland? Joyce Brabner: Not really. I find most American cities to be depressing in the same way. Harvey Pekar: And you're OK with the vasectomy thing?
It's a historical phenomenon that in 250 years, a nation could move from a colony into the most prosperous nation of the world and the leader of the world. It is indeed an achievement, a tribute to the talent of the American nation, the American peop...
My natural accent is American. I chose to speak with a U.K. accent when I was about to enter the final year at drama school in London. I was going to try to find a way to stay in the U.K. after I finished college and could not imagine trying to live ...
Now, when an American has an idea, he directly seeks a second American to share it. If there be three, they elect a president and two secretaries. Given four, they name a keeper of records, and the office is ready for work; five, they convene a gener...
The way to an American economic comeback, the way to help those out of work today find a paycheck, is to unleash the forces of job creation in America. The source of new jobs isn't going to be the bureaucracies of Washington, but rather the creativit...
I did not want 'Battleship' to be perceived as an American war film. I wanted to do everything I could to make the film accessible to a global audience. It felt like bringing an alien component to the film would help take the American jingoism out of...

A good life is the best sermon.
I want to waste my life Just by thinking, Just by writing, Just by dreaming my life. I want to spend my life Just by loving, Just by caring, Just by sharing my life. I want to destroy my life Just by giving, Just by forgiving, Just by living my life.
