I meditate. Daily practice is essential to my life.

I don't think that bravery is about skin. Bravery is about a willingness to show emotional need.

If the United States marches into Iraq without the backing of the United Nations, that will be done entirely without the backing of the American people.

What we all have in common is an appreciation of kindness and compassion; all the religions have this. We all lean towards love.

In a situation like this, of course you identify with everyone who's suffering. (But we must also think about) the terrorists who are creating such horrible future lives for themselves because of the negativity of this karma. It's all of our jobs to keep our minds as expansive as possible. If you can see (the terrorists) as a relative who's dangerously sick and we have to give them medicine, and the medicine is love and compassion. There's nothing better.

There is nothing real about film. Nothing. Even the light particles that project the film can't be proven to exist. Nothing is there.
