I don't think anything less than perfect, even though I'm a human being. The way I work and go at things is to better myself in perfect terms.
I was doing acting work at Fox - bit pieces with Greg Peck in The Gunfighter and things like that - and grew up more or less as a Fox contract player in about two years.
After college, rather than pursue real work, I joined a folk group and sang in coffee houses and nightclubs, an occupation that does little for the intellect and even less for the complexion.
The conditions of suffering that exist today in our impoverished communities are not acceptable. The reflection of those conditions are less concerning to me. And I work everyday about changing the conditions.

The media could do a much better job, that's for sure, especially the media that targets women... Human rights? They couldn't care less!
A typical complaint of married women with children is that their job stress tired them out so that they have little quality emotion and energy left for their children, much less their husbands.
American boys should not be seen dying on the nightly news. Wars should be over in three days or less, or before Congress invokes the War Powers Resolution.
Most of the victims of Nazi aggression were before the war less well off than Germany. They should not be expected by Germany to bear, unaided, the major costs of Nazi aggression.
I always felt that if countries knew each other better, there would be less war. Often, conflict goes with demonizing other countries and cultures.
Our Cuba policy didn't make much sense during the Cold War and makes even less sense now.
