The fact that you have been knocked down is interesting, but the length of time you remained down is important.
You have a lot of stages as an actor.
I'm not really a fan of organized religion.
I'm so southern Ohio. And Cleveland is a different world, you know?
Not to sound cliché or anything, but with the downtime that I have and the possible platform that my work could give me, I'd like to figure out a way to give back and make a difference, you know?
My job has me traveling all the time, and I got this house, so my downtime is spent sort of making a home. Every year it's different, and I try to do things that are more fulfilling.
Obviously, in my twenties, a lot of downtime was spent having a good time, which I don't regret; that was what I needed to do to get some things out of my system.
Co-operation between governments still plays an important role and will remain indispensable.
Wherever your heart rests There I will live and be blessed I've tried to line up the things I Needed to say but now my feelings just Tumble from me. I am half foolish, Half drunk with wanting you With wanting to take your hand And leap into the darkness of whatever Life will bring. Love makes me Brave and without love I'm made Nothing.
I encountered Newton when I was growing up, and it has kind of made me who I am, although I came to love Boston. It's a complicated city. Some of the smartest people in the world are in Boston. How many institutions of higher learning are in that one area? It's a pool of intelligence. It's a great town. You can encounter racism anywhere. I have a lot of nostalgic feelings about Boston. It was a cool place to grow up.
Some stories I write in Swedish, some in English. Short stories I've almost exclusively written in English lately, mostly because there's such a small market for them in Sweden and it doesn't really pay either. So, the translation goes both ways. What also factors in is that I have a different voice in English, which means that a straight translation wouldn't be the same as if I'd written it in English originally.
