I attended a very small junior high and specially in the end that became a disaster. The principal was pretty senile and a drunk, so the children more or less runned the school.
I came. I saw the power of love. I expressed non-judgmental love. I healed. I became loved.
Much as I loved doing 'The Big Breakfast,' it almost became automatic. I need something to keep my brain ticking over, something that I have to concentrate on.
She never wished for the thing what she is experiencing. It is her inner voice that became her enemy.
I became, and remain, my characters' close and intent watcher: their director, never. Their creator I cannot feel that I was, or am.
As I grew up, I became aware that there are people with special needs out there, and I have a real connection with them.
I became a real free market fanatic. I'm probably less so now than even two or three years ago.

Doing that hunt scene was really quite demanding. I actually broke a rib during that scene. And then all the scenes after that became quite challenging, just breathing and laughing.
I think the novel form chose me. I was a writer before I became a criminal... my first instinct was to write.
I've always had this core belief in public service. Even before I became a citizen, I volunteered in the Army.

When I became secretary of state, I felt one of my primary jobs was building relationships around the world.
First, I was Bavarian State Minister of Justice, and after the ministries of justice in the various states were dissolved I became Reich Minister without portfolio.
I became hooked on 'In Treatment,' which was so finely written and performed. Such a simple idea, and yet it delved into very complex territory with real grace and humanity.

I've had kids come to me and say, 'Oh, I loved your movie when I was a kid, and I became a marine biologist.' It's crazy.
