“My daughter [Ariana], she's a sweet, lovely girl, but she doesn't have the drive or the belief in herself. As it says in the film, I get touched up thinking about it, no one can give you a career. You have to have that inner drive. She wants it, but she doesn't know how to go for it, she's too shy.

For this process to have any public benefit requires that the choices be made on an intelligent, knowledgeable and reasoned basis.”
“The natural alone is permanent.”
“The only constant is change, and the rate of change is increasing,”
