Cinema was always taking the big risks, and TV was ambling along behind, just trying to touch the hem.

But they don't, they're not, they can't go very far that way, because the actual correspondence isn't really there in a lot of cases.

And then you are just trying not to drown afterwards. And that's my life. See, that was really terrible.

Figure out what you want, how you want to feel, whatever your motivation is, you have to figure it out. That's step one: where do you want to be?

We all have cheat days, holidays, or celebrations, whatever or period when we can't work out as much as we like, and just do the best you can and when you can get back on track, get back on track.
