We teach people that they upset themselves. We can't change the past so we change how people are thinking feeling and behaving today.

For having lived long I have experienced many instances of being obliged by better information or fuller consideration to change opinions even on important subjects which I once thought right but found to be otherwise.

I hope everyone that is reading this is having a really good day. And if you are not just know that in every new minute that passes you have an opportunity to change that.

I believe that you control your destiny that you can be what you want to be. You can also stop and say 'No I won't do it I won't behave his way anymore. I'm lonely and I need people around me maybe I have to change my methods of behaving ' and then you do it.

I get bored. We seem to have been having a little bit more time off this winter than last winter. I'm always itching to get back in the car. It's going to get harder so I've got to make sure that I'm doing everything I possibly can do to make sure I can start next season how I ended this season.

Especially in the car ride to and from gym. I find myself spacing out a lot just visualizing what the Olympics would be like and just having such great role models.

Now I'm having to live with sales of around 50 000 per album - but I'm pretty content with my place in the general scheme of things even if it's meant I don't drive a fancy car and can't afford grand vacations.

The hardest part was when I was in high school not having a job and always being broke. I had to get to auditions without a car. I either took the bus or walked.

I was a little different. I still say I'm a little different because success to me is not having the most money or having the biggest car or the biggest house.

Now having said that I realize that releasing a film in the real world is like trying to get General Motors to release a handmade car.

I knew that by getting behind the wheel of the car and having had something to drink the responsibility laid on my shoulders.

One thing that worried me was how writers get categorized and so they end up having to write the same kind of book again and again. That is fine if it is what you want to do but I would rather be locked in the trunk of my car with a weasel than write the same book every three years until I die.

If you don't have the story and the unfolding of the trajectory of the saga it's like getting in a car and not having any gas.

If a movie is really working you forget for two hours your Social Security number and where your car is parked. You are having a vicarious experience. You are identifying in one way or another with the people on the screen.

The newly decorated theatres produced things like car parks and restaurants so you could have a good night out quite cheaply without all that bother of having to go somewhere else.

Having played many roles of scientific intellect I do have an empathy for that world. It's been hard on me because flying the Enterprise for seven years in Star Trek and sitting in Cerebro in X-men has led people to believe that I know what I'm talking about. But I'm still trying to work out how to operate the air conditioning unit on my car.

I miss Saturday morning rolling out of bed not shaving getting into my car with my girls driving to the supermarket squeezing the fruit getting my car washed taking walks.
