In real love you want the other person's good. In romantic love you want the other person.
I believe that when you're in love you have to pour your heart and soul out to your partner... or why bother? So in that sense I'm an incurable romantic when it comes to men.
Romance is thinking about your significant other when you are supposed to be thinking about something else.
Deceiving others. That is what the world calls a romance.
Other bands gave us lip service but when it came down to it they kind of backed off. That was a little disheartening. But I respect them. That's their business.

My father was an inspiration to me I made a few movies with him and I loved working with him. Everything about him - his whole approach to work as well as his love enthusiasm and respect for it and other people in the business - was inspiring. I was very lucky to have him as a role model.
I did learn that it was the greatest thing in the world to respect yourself. Respect other people.
