I love Brooke Shields. She's developed into a wonderful actress and a wonderful person. We were all babies then in Brenda Starr. That's why when people say, "What did you think of that film?" I can't do what people do and say, "I hated it. " I can't speak ill of a film, because it's so hard to make a film. Everybody thinks we're sitting by a pool peeling grapes, and this is not the case.

I like the idea of seeing Krishna as a baby, the way He's often depicted in India. And also Govinda, the cowherd boy. I like the idea that you can have Krishna as a baby and feel protective to Him, or as your friend, or as the guru or master - type figure.
Sleep my little baby-oh Sleep until you waken When you wake you'll see the world If I'm not mistaken. . . Kiss a lover Dance a measure, Find your name And buried treasure. . . Face your life Its pain, Its pleasure, Leave no path untaken.
