My activism and sexual revolution in New York was a factor.

A lot of my joy this year has been to give away awards to young people, no matter of race, creed or color, because they were a terrific violinist or a terrific dancer.

I have married thriteen couples. I'm about to do a marriage next month.

I think you can really tell a good actor if you can put a camera on them and they can just talk and emote and react and you don't have to keep cutting away from them, because they are the language and the behavior. It's all a tour-de-force performance.

I have some great stories and I will get around to writing a book.

The only thing that I could think of to do was to be an actress.

My favorite actresses were Geraldine Paige, Anne Bancroft and Kim Stanley.

So, I think that Marilyn, what she gave the world, and in many ways Kennedy too, was that they had dreams and they didn't allow anybody to take away their dreams.

I think that souls agree to come in and do what they're going to do and then leave when they're going to leave. So there's nothing tragic when a soul leaves. I think it was already preordained.

I really think that women should be allowed to be more European, in this country.

My point is that, over the years, I've taught five thousand people acting and lately I have a lot of energy on these kids, having the same break I had as a high school girl.

Our church has been legal since late 1960s. I've been involved since 1972. I was ordained in 1975.

I certainly was one of the instigators in the 1960s of freedom of expression.

She was a genius, my mother.

My activism and sexual revolution in New York was a factor.

I always told, Sandra Bullock was my student when she was younger, I always told her it's important that we hold on to our insecurity, the wisdom of insecurity.

With my ministry of light, part of what I do is work on the California Alliance For Arts Education.

Everyone should have a moment with Ron Howard in their life to give you faith in our industry.

In Europe you can be Sophia, you can be these older women who are considered very sexy.

In the case of Marilyn and John Kennedy, I think they did affect change.

My attitude is always one of sensuality, aggressive enthusiasm and a kind of outrageousness in my expression.

I think I'm more European in personality.

Probably what my comment meant was that I don't care about the circumstances if I can tell the truth.

So I have this ability, if I may say so, to spot talent.

I taught Sandra Bullock when no one knew who she was. I talked her out of quitting. I put her in a showcase.

When I was growing up watching Marilyn Monroe, I learned that you can be very beautiful, very glamorous and very vulnerable and not give up your soul just because you were a movie star.

I made a conscious decision back then that I would rather be the best actress who ever lived than the most famous one.

I'm on Governor Gray Davis' California Alliance Towards Education to bring the arts back to high schools.

I had art as a major, along with English, French and History. I had dance, modern dance. In English I was allowed to write my own poetry, which I eventually got published.

I had no idea that he was going to write that, but I've always believed that insecurity was what would keep you always in your innocence, no matter what the business did.

I suppose if I wanted to be the girl next door, I could have been. I think America is confused by someone who appears to be sexual and spiritual at the same time.

Of course, conservatives always claim to be against judicial activism.

My ministry's always been one of social activism. I think a responsible minister must be at some levels involved in the social order.

Activism could be defined as activities engaged in by individuals to change there of others situation.

Our aims in political activism are not, and should not be, to create a perfect utopia.

My pro-choice activism keeps me busy.

What drew me to both study and activism was the formative experience of the civil rights movement.

It wouldn't be fair to say that conservatives cherish property the way liberals cherish equality. But it would be fair to say that the takings clause is the conservatives' recipe for judicial activism just as they say liberals have misused the equal protection clause.

That attitude that fighting is probably not fair, but you have to defend yourself anyway and damage the enemy, has been profoundly consequential as far as my political activism goes.

"Empathy" is the latest code word for liberal activism, for treating the Constitution as malleable clay to be kneaded and molded in whatever form justices want. It represents an expansive view of the judiciary in which courts create policy that couldn't pass the legislative branch or, if it did, would generate voter backlash.

Traditionalists will have to master techniques of sustained activism formerly monopolized by the left.

My activism and sexual revolution in New York was a factor.

Our Parliamentary system has simply failed to meet the challenge of judicial activism.

It was Dr. King's tireless activism that fostered our modern way of relating to one another.

As you know, when Star Trek was canceled after the second season, it was the activism of the fans that revived it for a third season.

But as for activism, my parents did what they could, given the constraints, but were never involved in the causes I think of when I think of activists.

There's enormous progressive activism and, more often than not, success at the grassroots level - everything from living wage campaigns to efforts to finance our elections are having terrific success.

So the danger of conservative judicial activism has been averted for another year. Stay tuned.

Ten years ago, 15 years ago, I think the church would have been asleep at the switch. This level of activism and engagement with the needs of society by local churches I never thought I'd see it in my lifetime.
