Do we root for Michael Corleone in the 'Godfather' films? I think so, even if he is a monster.

I think invariably when you are dealing with relationships, the films really center on that, and the plot is really born out of that. That's the most core part of a relationship: intimacy, I think, whether it's expressed or not.

Certainly, every movie has to be looked at differently. But I think what happens is, every couple of years, a movie comes along that everybody then tries to copy.

I think publicly declaring that mistakes are a part of how we grow and how we heal is absolutely necessary.

Even my closest friend said I was finished, but I think I may be a little different from the others.

I'm so adamant that being a really good parent does not mean you have to be there 24/7. I find that I'm never not thinking about where they are, but instead of it stressing me out, it comforts me to know that I'm completely aware of their schedule, and they're with someone I trust.

These are books that want to be read out loud. These are books kids share with each other, and I think that's important.

If I'm thinking or feeling something, I have to record it somewhere. If I don't, I worry the thought will be lost and I'll never get it back again. I never self-edit and I don't write in one place or in a special book.

I'm a thinker.

To a certain extent, I think I've become an animal-rights person.

The building blocks of mathematical thinking are requisite for more advanced conceptualization. If a student is not ready to move on, then the teacher must take time to assist that learner.
