I would rather watch a sunset than TV.
As I get older, I just prefer to knit.
I don't get very involved in the L. A. scene. When you do get invited out, you are expected to be on all the time. It's just wearying.
It's the poignancy and sadness in things that gets to me.

I think serial monogamy says it all.
I don't see myself as a stand-up comic doing cynical, mean-spirited or disrespectful stuff. I'm very aware that I don't like to disrespect people too much.
I really appreciate what the writers are doing and respect everything that they do. So, I was satisfied, for sure.
I firmly believe in and support everyone's right to freedom of artistic expression. STEEL MAGNOLIAS is my artistic expression, and it is my right to say that its female characters be portrayed by women. The concept of a play set in a beauty parlor where men portray women is a terrific idea. If that is someone's artistic expression, I encourage them to write their own play as soon as possible.
By means of the sign, man frees himself from the here and now for abstraction.
the intensity, glory, and absolute assuredness if my mind's flight made it very difficult for me to believe once i was better, that the illness was one i should willingly give up. . . . moods are such an essential part of the substance of life, of one's notion of oneself, that even psychotic extremes in mood and behavior somehow can be seen as temporary, even understandable reactions to what life has dealt. . . . even though the depressions that inevitably followed nearly cost me my life.
