Madonna reinforces everything absurd and offensive. Desperate womanhood. Madonna is closer to organized prostitution than anything else.
But I don't believe in organised politics, organised religion, organised music, organised anything.
Haiti is closer to anarchy than it is to anything else.
Westerns are closer to art than anything else in the motion picture business.
High school is closer to the core of the American experience than anything else I can think of.
Doing animation is closer to pretending than anything else you get to do. It's much more like when you're a kid putting on a character.
Organised religion, organised anything, requires commitment and requires an engagement with something. A lot of the time, we don't want to commit.
My theory is that I'm just closer to the sun than everyone else. I weigh more than everyone else, I'm taller than everyone else. When it's really humid and hot outside it's going to take a bigger toll on me.
Bollywood is an industry that is closer to making more entertainment-based films than anything else because people here are bothered about money.
Being on a mission-not thinking about myself and focusing on serving other people-is what brought me closer to God than anything else.
Prostitution myths justify the existence of prostitution, promote misinformation about prostitution, and contribute to a social climate that exploits and harms not only prostituted women but all women.
Madonna has a far profounder vision of sex than do the feminists. She sees both the animality and the artifice. Changing her costume style and hair color virtually every month, Madonna embodies the eternal values of beauty and pleasure. Feminism says, 'No more masks.' Madonna says we are nothing but masks. Through her enormous impact on young women around the world, Madonna is the future of feminism.
Rabbits live close to death and when death comes closer than usual, thinking about survival leaves little room for anything else.
When we start shooting I don't have rehearsals with characters at all. So, rather than pulling them towards myself, I travel closer to them; it's very much closer to the real person than anything I try to create. So I give them something but I also take from them.
But I've been there and done that. I'm not trying to prove anything to anybody, and if somebody wants me to come, if they can afford what I ask, it's not as much as Madonna makes; not that I want what Madonna makes, but I was saying.
Some people may complicate it for you, but the formula is simple: Love God more than anything else. More than your ego. More than your money. More than your desires...More than your sleep at dawn. Love God more than anything else, and submission comes natural.
Love God more than anything else, and all goodness will follow.
