Some legislators only wish to vengeance against a particular enemy. Others only look out for themselves. They devote very little time on the consideration of any public issue.

People love that kind of beginning, middle, and end. They like that comfort of turning on the TV week-to-week and being entertained with a good story.

Listening to people keeps them entertained.
The innocent supposition, entertained by most people, that even if they are not brilliant, they are not dumb, is correct only in a very relative sense.
That's the way it goes with the whole human thing - nobody wants to take a risk. But to be entertaining is not risky, everybody likes to be entertained.
At the end of the day, audiences just want to laugh and be entertained. They want to escape from their reality, and that's why we make movies, to get people to escape from the realities.
I do not feel obliged in my reading. I read to be entertained and to relax, and to go into another world, not because it's good for me.
I hope what I do has an art to it, and as an artist you have to try new things and keep yourself entertained.
[President Clinton] boasts about 186,000 people denied firearms under the Brady Law rules. The Brady Law has been in force for three years.
