Pastoral Resources

I have been primarily interested in how and why ordinary people do unusual things, things that seem alien to their natures. Why do good people sometimes act evil? Why do smart people sometimes do dumb or irrational things?

Most wars, after all, present themselves as humanitarian endeavors to help people.

There is no flag large enough to cover the shame of killing innocent people.

When people don't understand that the government doesn't have their interests in mind, they're more susceptible to go to war.

If the gods had intended for people to vote, they would have given us candidates.

Not exactly hit them, but I've restrained a few people.

I do look forward to keeping in touch with the guys, because we'll always be connected in people's minds.

Some people pray to a totem pole, some people pray to a sun, some people pray to a god. It all works for them. It all comes back to what you think.

Communists should be the first to be concerned about other people and country and the last to enjoy themselves.

When two people first meet, they can only have a very ordinary kind of friendship. But when you begin to understand each other, when you get close to them, you discover that you're suddenly eager to know him or her even better.

I agree with Sophocles: the greatest luck is not to have been born - but, as the joke goes on, very few people succeed in it.

When you look like you stepped out of a catalog, that's never good. People shouldn't succumb to trend, they should interpret trend.

I don't think that people should wear dresses two sizes too small. I just think that sexiness is better left to the imagination. It's just more tasteful.

Every other day there's something - I'm dealing drugs, I'm starving people. I have never done a drug in my life.

Probably the biggest thing that surprises people is that I am obsessed with hockey. I grew up in the Boston area so I am obsessed with hockey since I was a little kid.

It'd be like what would happen if Hollywood took over porno: 'If we keep their clothes on and they didn't have sex, we'd be able to sell it to a lot more people'.

The hardest part was convincing people that I was serious. The people were like 'you want to do this again'?

The pirating thing is bad. The people it hurts the most are the ones you least think it hurts. It's not the big Britney Spears albums that are being pirated; it's the indie bands that don't have two cents to their name.
