It's okay to be a fat man. It's prestige and power and all of that. But fat women are seen as just lazy and stupid and having no self-control.

Instead of hating, I have chosen to forgive and spend all of my positive energy on changing the world.

I was scared, because I knew that in the political arena, you have to satisfy so many different types of people at once, and I wasn't sure that I could speak for everybody and be politically correct.

Isn't it amazing how celebrity status preempts even the most ingrained hatreds?

I placed over a thousand deaf people in jobs throughout my career working for the deaf.

Acting forces you to ask yourself, 'Can my constitution take a decade of constant rejection?' And after ten years, you either make it or you don't. And the problem is they don't tell you in advance.

For a long time, I really struggled with the idea of being an actor because I really felt that I should be in the Peace Corps.
