Like my dad I have a Christmas party most years. I like to celebrate and see as many people as possible.
My dad's side of the family had lots of artists and musicians. There's an emotional quite sentimental quality to Slavic culture. It's very open it loves art it loves music it loves literature. It's very warm it's very up it's very down. I would celebrate that.
In short we need to recover the courage we celebrate in our heroes and in particular the courage to tolerate for the sake of a free society a level of risk we hardly ever imagined in the past.
A monopoly on the means of communication may define a ruling elite more precisely than the celebrated Marxian formula of monopoly in the means of production.
It's tough because a lot of my friends in normal life a lot of my friends in the entertainment business and a lot of my friends in the wrestling business are gay. Just to say something spiteful and hurtful I don't get it... if it was true and I was gay I'd embrace it and I'd tell you guys about it and I'd celebrate it.

This is a wonderful way to celebrate an 80th birthday... I wanted to be 65 again but they wouldn't let me - Homeland Security.
When I was little I thought isn't it nice that everybody celebrates on my birthday? Because it's July 4th.
Let us celebrate the occasion with wine and sweet words.
The more you praise and celebrate your life the more there is in life to celebrate.
There's one more thing I want to say. It's a touchy subject. Black beauty. Black sensuality. We live in a culture where the beauty of black people isn't always as celebrated as other types. I'd like to help change that if I can!
In the business world today failure is apparently not an option. We need to change this attitude toward failure - and celebrate the idea that only by falling on our collective business faces do we learn enough to succeed down the road.
Not every religion has to have St. Augustine's attitude to sex. Why even in our culture marriages are celebrated in a church everyone present knows what is going to happen that night but that doesn't prevent it being a religious ceremony.
The whole aspect of cinema and film festivals should be a moment to come together and celebrate art and humanity. It would be a shame if there was such a divide.
I don't think art is propaganda it should be something that liberates the soul provokes the imagination and encourages people to go further. It celebrates humanity instead of manipulating it.
