I vote in every general election, but I'm not a party member or an ideologue. I've never told anyone who I've voted for.

I'm anti-big power. I don't know if that's populist or not.

My basic approach to interviewing is to ask the basic questions that might even sound naive, or not intellectual. Sometimes when you ask the simple questions like 'Who are you?' or 'What do you do?' you learn the most.

I've never been a member of a political party, but people will superimpose on you what they want.

Who cares if a movie star has an opinion unless the person is very well informed?

My number one goal was not getting 'A's' - and I proved it. I was a 'C' student. You have to be ready to learn. If you're not interesting in learning, it doesn't work. As I grew older and wanted to learn and desperately wanted inside information, learning was a lot easier.

Some people when they get older are so firm in their beliefs that you'll never move them.
