If you haven’t admired anybody in your whole life, you are the best candidate to be the world’s greatest megalomaniac Picture Quote #1

I didn’t really know Kurt that well, but there was a guy I always admired. We didn’t spend much time together, but the few times we did spend together, you know, were times I’ll always remember.

One of the most depressing features of the ethical side of the matter is that instead of such methods arousing contempt they are more or less openly admired. And this is logical.

It’s really important to me to promote worthy causes. But not in a heavy, obligatory, responsibility way. I really admired that as a kid, learning about the ‘Elton John AIDS Foundation.’ And I was obsessed with The Indigo Girls. And they are the consummate activist group, always reaching out, especially to Native causes and things like that Picture Quote #1

When I first read Anne Frank’s ‘Diary of a Young Girl,’ I saw for the first time that a girl could be a writer and that it had something to do with survival and with ethics and fighting against evil.

As far as people I’d like to work with, the list is endless.

We’re very blessed in this country; there is so much talent for people to work with and learn from Picture Quote #1

Like so many American families, our families weren’t asking for much. They didn’t begrudge anyone else’s success or care that others had much more than they did... in fact, they admired it Picture Quote #1
