I think it's important that we have strong, female characters in movies now, which can really leave an impression on people - especially young people - and that they're not 'sexy' or 'cool.'

Learning is the most important thing, no mater how you do it, or where you do it, or who you do it with.

When I was younger, I was very athletic and I always loved sports and physical things.

The written word can be powerful and beautiful - but films transport us to another place in a way that even the most evocative words never can.

My family kept its history to itself. On the plus side, I didn't have to hear nightmarish stories about the Holocaust, the pogroms, terrible illnesses, painful deaths. My elderly parents never even spoke about their ailments.

I know how critical that is, having a mother and father involved in your life, and I'm going to continue to be the most involved father hopefully that you'll ever see.

If what I went through on a national level, the trouble between me and my wife, if it helps one couple going through the same thing... if it saves one family, it's worth it.

As youngsters, my mother taught her children that while we might not be the smartest people around, we could be courteous, polite and considerate of others.
