Feeling compassion for ourselves in no way releases us from responsibility for our actions. Rather, it releases us from the self-hatred that prevents us from responding to our life with clarity and balance.
I've done a lot of action movies, and there has to be a certain amount of emotion in the actual performing of the stunt. It doesn't have to be any particular emotion, but there has to be some life to it, and that's not so easy.
You see, in life, lots of people know what to do, but few people actually do what they know. Knowing is not enough! You must take action.
Choice of attention - to pay attention to this and ignore that - is to the inner life what choice of action is to the outer. In both cases, a man is responsible for his choice and must accept the consequences, whatever they may be.
All the legal action I've taken against newspapers has had a massively positive effect on my life and achieved exactly what I wanted, which is privacy and non-harassment.
Class action lawsuits are an important part of our legal system. All citizens should have the right to band together and settle grievances with bigger companies, but that system is broken and it needs fixing.

I'm kind of a tomboy, so I've always had a soft spot for action movies. I would love to do one of those, doing my own stunts and training.

It's so clear cut with a comedian - you have that reflex action, whereby you laugh or you don't. And so you either love us or you simply cannot see why people are laughing.
I wouldn't want to lose out on my macho action movie just because I told people I was queer.
It is important to have a dream, but a dream is absolutely nothing until you start to consistently give life to it through strategic actions.
Consistency with the right strategic plan is the ultimate key to success. Yesterday's action would never make up for today's procrastination.
You solely owe success and happiness to yourself. So why not make your inner-self proud of your daily decisions and actions?
A life of success demands that you never starve your dreams from the actions, courage, and faith that they consistently need.
Speak life into your goals. Follow up with consistent actions, and at the appointed time, you would surely start to see them transform into realities.
Success is what happens when a mind with a positive attitude meets an effective plan of action.
Stop worrying about where you are at the moment and start getting excited about what the future holds for you through consistent actions and faith.
Let the greatness in you shine by occupying your daily life with decisions and actions that are in favor of your God's given destiny.
If you are always taking the right actions that your goals demand, it would almost be impossible to ever experience a stagnant state of existence.
Money can buy popularity, but it can never buy greatness. Your decisions and actions speak louder than everything else.
