Because the sad fact is that the Enron Corporation and others manipulated with unfortunately great effect the energy market in the West Coast starting in 2000.

I'd like to classify my life as a romantic comedy. Unfortunately I feel it's probably more like a TV reality show.

I just play the music that I love with musicians that I respect and fortunately I'm in a position where people are willing to play with me and perhaps I can do something to help them.

Well unfortunately I have always regretted the fact that I have a temper but I also have you know have great love and respect for all of the people that have worked for me. I think like everything else this is one of those things that has been blown out of proportion.

Politics has become unbelievably and unfortunately way too much about how much money is involved rather than what kind of ideas are involved.

Unfortunately the global warming hysteria as I see it is driven by politics more than by science.

Unfortunately poetry is not born in noise in crowds or on a bus. There have to be four walls and the certainty that the telephone will not ring. That's what writing is all about.

Unfortunately little attention was paid to how Arafat ruled. In fact some saw the harsh and repressive nature of Arafat's regime as actually bolstering the prospects for peace.

Unfortunately the world is what it is now. People don't get along for whatever reason. As professional athletes in a way we're almost ambassadors for peace because sports brings everyone together.

Unfortunately our history has abundant examples of patriotism being used to hurt those who express views in disagreement with that of the majority.

Unfortunately religion like patriotism is easy to misuse for political purposes.

Unfortunately after Sept. 11 there was an outburst in America of intense suffering and patriotism and the Bush administration was very shrewd and effective in painting anyone who disagreed with the policies as unpatriotic or even traitorous.

Unfortunately 'chick flick' has become a term to describe most movies that I don't even like. They're these movies that yes have women in them but they really don't reflect who women are and there's something kind of silly or shallow or gossipy about them.

Unfortunately overall movies are a conglomerate. People buy and sell people in this business which can get really ugly.

Besides the fact that I make movies there's nothing interesting about my life at all unfortunately.

I really unfortunately don't have tons of hilarious Sundance stories because really I am not the biggest fan of hanging out but the reason why is because I never go see other people's movies and I think that's the way to do it.

I knew that there were black people in Africa of course unfortunately because of movies such as 'Tarzan.'
