Whether you do a play in front of 100 people or a movie that one billion people see, you're still affecting people.

I teethed on books of heroes such as Winston Churchill, Abraham Lincoln and King David.

I decided to take God and organized religion seriously, and to reject the secular life which in my teens had looked attractive because it allowed me to act in any way that I wanted.

I loved history, particularly of the British, American and Old Testament kind.

I have decided to follow in my sinful ways, and have largely abandoned the increasingly religious life I was leading over the previous months, including several hours of Talmudic study a day.

I now attend non-orthodox synagogues, and study little during the secular week.
