People like scary stories. There's a fascination with fear themes, and we want to face those things in a weird, subconscious way.
These days there are a lot of people who just want to be famous. I think that comes from a naive place, because those people generally don't know what it's like.
Other famous men, those of much talk and few deeds, soon evaporate. Action is the dignity of greatness.
There's such big pressure on people who are incredibly famous, on those who have people sitting outside their front door and taking photos every time they move.
There will always be those little minds who, out of vanity or intellectual display, will attempt to destroy faith in the very foundations of life.
All are free to believe or not believe; all are free to practice a faith or not. But those who believe must be free to speak of and act on their belief.

What they do in America in all those sitcoms is hire glamorous girls and they're never that funny... that's because they've never had to develop a personality because they're hot.
I think anyone loves to play a character that is either evil to a certain extent or has a real definable character flaw. Those are always really fun, and, I think, funny.
I love a lot of comedy actors and actresses like Kristen Wiig and Tina Fey and all those women who are really brilliant and funny.
From my perspective, probably women are won over by people who are sweet and respectful and courteous and kind and funny. I think those are the things that win women over.
I regret and suffer those losses, but it's God's will. He will pardon me if I committed excesses, but I don't think I did.
