I don’t know about you, but when I watch something, it’s escapism. I’m feeling crappy; I’m just sad, moody, depressed, upset, angry, whatever it is. I know that distraction is what makes me get better. Distraction is what really, really helps me. I’m sure that’s not what a therapist would advise.

I didn’t know feeling this way was possible.

I think the reason why strong women have such a powerful impact is that you’ve got the strength of a man with the heart and sensitivity of a woman.
Someone once told me that if you respect a person, listen to their opinion. And if you do not respect someone, then do not listen to their opinion. And that works both ways.
