A free society will abide unofficial, private discrimination, even when that means allowing hate-filled groups to exclude people based on the color of their skin.
You know, a lot of those angry sort of Southern man characters that I've been doing are based on different people I might've had as, like, a soccer coach or as a teacher.
If mankind were to continue in other than the present barbarism, a new path must be found, a new civilization based on some other method than technology.
But I don't think we'll go there until we go back to the moon and develop a technology base for living and working and transporting ourselves through space.
If you think about brewing, it is biotechnology. And I would say that I was a technologist at heart. So whether I... fermented beer or whether I fermented enzymes, the base technology was the same.
I did a 'Love Boat!' And based on my trip on the 'Love Boat,' I said, 'I'd just as soon not do 'Fantasy Island.'
I'm not interested in forcing my music on people, and that's what the whole music industry nowadays is based on is forcing stations to play it, forcing people to listen to it.

When men organize themselves into groups, and they make rules based on common or self-interest, it's always tangled and political.
When you know what men are capable of you marvel neither at their sublimity nor their baseness. There are no limits in either direction apparently.
I think successful movies that are based on books are their own thing. I think if you're too faithful, word by word, character trait to character trait, it can hurt the movie.
Teachers support evaluations based on multiple measures: student growth, classroom observation and feedback from peers and parents.
Don't judge my past base on my present action, remember past and present are of two different timeline
All of those art-based fields are similar in that they're all hard to make a living in and they all require an intense amount of training and discipline.
I was a very observant child. The boys in my books are based on boys in my neighborhood growing up.
We've switched from a culture that was interested in manufacturing, economics, politics - trying to play a serious part in the world - to a culture that's really entertainment-based.
Stay with us, please remain in this country and constitute a nation based on national unity.
Choosing friends based on how much money they have is like betting on a horse because you like its saddle.
