The truth is after Boys Don't Cry I realized how few and far between the great roles are. I am beyond thankful for finding Million Dollar Baby.

The first stage in a technology's advance is that it'll fall below a critical price. After it falls below a critical price it will tend if it's successful to rise above a critical mass a penetration.

Content and technology are strange bed fellows. We are joined together. Sometimes we misunderstand each other. But isn't that after all the definition of marriage?

The technology at the leading edge changes so rapidly that you have to keep current after you get out of school. I think probably the most important thing is having good fundamentals.

Society will decide after the technology is created what we will and won't accept.

The technology backbone is no longer an afterthought.

My first job after college was at Magic Quest an educational software startup company where I was responsible for writing the content. I found that job somewhat accidentally but after working there a few weeks and loving my job I decided to pursue a career in technology.

But by the time I was 40 everything was winding down. It started after the war. On the plus side there was more more products and technology. But for me the nightlife was winding down the glamour the fun.

Disco is the first technology music. And what I mean is that 'disco' music is named after discs because when technology grew to where they didn't need a band in the clubs the DJ played it on a disc.

Soon silence will have passed into legend. Man has turned his back on silence. Day after day he invents machines and devices that increase noise and distract humanity from the essence of life contemplation meditation.

I watch too much cable I admit. Day after day it gets frustrating. Yesterday I watched as someone called legislation to prevent teacher layoffs a bailout - but I know that's not a view held by many nor were the views I was frustrated about.

After this I took private lessons in Italian from an elementary school teacher. He gave me themes to write about and some of them turned out so well that he told me to publish them in a newspaper.

I took an acting class. After the first day the teacher quit so they said take another. When I saw 'How to be a Stand-up Comedian ' it resonated. I realized I'd rather make 200 people laugh than make one person cry.

If I wasn't an actor I'd be a teacher a history teacher. After all teaching is very much like performing. A teacher is an actor in a way. It takes a great deal to get and hold a class.

My first acting job happened by accident when I was really young. I was in fifth grade and my teacher saw an ad in the paper and took me to the audition after school and I got the part.

I dropped out of high school when I was 16 after I had a huge argument with my English teacher over the meaning of the word 'existentialism.'

My father was a swim teacher. We used to swim before school swim after school.

I really enjoyed hanging out with some of the teachers. This one chemistry teacher she liked hanging out. I liked making explosives. We would stay after school and blow things up.

We may have forgotten how to feel. Nobody is teaching us how to live happily ever after as we've heard in fairy tales.

What we become depends on what we read after all of the professors have finished with us. The greatest university of all is a collection of books.

It is only after one is in trouble that one realizes how little sympathy and kindness there are in the world.

I joined the Party definitely in 1923 after having already been in sympathy with it before.

Children even infants are capable of sympathy. But only after adolescence are we capable of compassion.

I used to think that losing made you more hungry and determined but after my success at the Olympics and the U.S. Open I realise that winning is the biggest motivation.
