Acting school was summer camp, and I needed concentration camp. I had so many different ideas swirling between culture and how to tie things together.

But that doesn't mean we can't use new information to help us read the holy texts in new ways.

Socrates famously said that the unconsidered life is not worth living. He meant that a life lived without forethought or principle is a life so vulnerable to chance, and so dependent on the choices and actions of others, that it is of little real value to the person living it.

Of course, the advantage is that, being in this business, you get to learn a lot, experience a lot of new things, and you can become real successful. The disadvantage is, of course the negative media. People may try to manipulate you and control you, and those are the things you have to avoid. But if you maintain strong family values and you believe in God, you can be successful. So, it's been tough, but I've gotten through it because I stuck with my family and my deep belief in God.
Well, I think that the image is a part of me. I wear the baggy pants, the hats, the whole nine. And you know, I may add a little for the excitement and the intrigue in the videos, but my family has told me that little air of mystery that surrounds me is for real.
I don't really want to write fiction at all. I don't see why fiction is necessary when we have real life already confusing enough.
The rich man in his castle, The poor man at his gate, God made them, high or lowly, And order'd their estate.
