“There is more story in a minor character like Boba Fett than there is in all the clutter of various vampires in the Twilight franchise.”

It’s really hard to hate someone for being different when you’re too busy laughing together.

STAR TREK is a show that had a vision about a future that was positive.

And it seems to me important for a country, for a nation to certainly know about its glorious achievements but also to know where its ideals failed, in order to keep that from happening again.

As the old saying goes, I was simply looking for fan love, in Alderaan places.

You know, I grew up in two American internment camps, and at that time I was very young.

This is supposed to be a participatory democracy and if we’re not in there participating then the people that will manipulate and exploit the system will step in there.

I spent my boyhood behind the barbed wire fences of American internment camps and that part of my life is something that I wanted to share with more people.

Cat’s are unpredictable. It is a fine line between the cure, inquisitive and innocent creature resting on our lap and the hissing, spitting and deranged banshee it might become at any moment. This is why we’re trying always to win their love.

I’m a civic busybody and I’ve been blessed with an active career.

Life is too short not to order the bacon dessert.

Confidence in the human capacity for problem solving, for invention, for innovation.

We have to be vigilant about how the Trump administration may try to divide us from each other.

I am emboldened, not cowed, by the words and actions of Trump and his circle. I believe many others are as well. Together we will stand in opposition. I’m not going anywhere, and I won’t be silenced.

Well, it gives, certainly to my father, who is the one that suffered the most in our family, and understanding of how the ideals of a country are only as good as the people who give it flesh and blood.

Do your duty as an American, and as a citizen of the galaxy… Vote!

To do theater you need to block off a hunk of time.

I can’t stand it when men are snarky.

Every problem is a character-building opportunity, and the more difficult it is, the greater the potential for building spiritual muscle and moral fiber.

There is nothing you can do that will make God stop loving you. You could try, but you simply can’t do it – because his love for you is based upon his character and not on anything you do or say or feel.

The main characteristic which is the proof of the indwelling Spirit is an amazing tenderness in personal dealing, and a blazing truthfulness with regard to God’s Word.

Bear in mind that brains and learning, like muscle and physical skill, are articles of commerce. They are bought and sold. You can hire them by the year or by the hour. The only thing in the world not for sale is character.

If I take care of my character, my reputation will take care of me.

Some may never live, but the crazy never die.

RUMOR, n. A favorite weapon of the assassins of character.
