I like the action business. I like the action movies. I guess Hollywood wants to see me do action. So I am down. I like it.
As usual, it occurred to me that words were the only thing that could possibly save me from this situation. This was a characteristic misunderstanding on my part.

This is what Wisdom means: To be changed without the slightest effort on your part, to be transformed, believe it or not, merely by waking to the reality that is not words , that lies beyond the reach of words. If you are fortunate enough to be Awakened thus, you will know why the finest language is the one that is not spoken, the finest action is the one that is not done and the finest change is the one that is not willed.
I've always been proud of my body, my Jewish nose and all of that. Hollywood's Hollywood, but that's not going to change.
