Over 20 million children of conflict are out of school. Education is often forgotten.

At the end of the day I'm gonna be dead one day, and what people say about me is going what I accomplished and what I did in my life and how my children are. And I don't think it's gonna be what was printed in the tabloids this year.

I remember the days of auditioning and being nervous and so I really didn't want to make people have to jump through hoops to do auditions and be nervous and make them more nervous. I kind of wanted to hire everybody and find something for everybody.

For whatever reason, I don't know why, but Cambodians learned something in their suffering and their struggle that we have lost touch with.

I always felt caged, closed in, like I was punching at things that weren't there. I always had too much energy for the room I was in.

If I make a fool of myself, who cares? I'm not frightened by anyone's perception of me.

The interesting thing for me is that everybody felt that I was really wild when i was unbalanced and desperate to communicate something and didn't have a sense of purpose. But I've never been so crazy and wild as I am with my son or as I am now.
