Whatever it is, if you draw, you paint, you're a carpenter, you play football, the more you do it, you're a journalist, the more stories you write, the more people you interview and navigate your way through these different personalities to get your story, the better you're going to get at it. Acting's no different. ↗

For most Americans, Friday afternoons are filled with positive anticipation of the weekend. In Washington, it's where government officials dump stories they want to bury. Good news gets dropped on Monday so bureaucrats can talk about it all week. ↗

We need art. We've been telling stories since the beginning. As human beings, we need it for our survival. ↗

So certainly, if we can tell evil stories to make people sick, we can also tell good myths that make them well. ↗
