I probably get strangers coming up to me two or three times a week to just say something nice. I get more than my share of compliments as I walk through my daily life. I'm not having to show off or make a point about how good I am at doing something. I think I've always kind of been that way. ↗

There's something about an American soldier you can't explain. They're so grateful for anything, even a film actress coming to see them. ↗

I thought cryptography was a technique that did not require your trusting other people-that if you encrypted your files, you would have the control to make the choice as to whether you would surrender your files. ↗

Live theater is my favorite of all the mediums that I have worked in, so I have every intention on coming back to Broadway. ↗
