Bell Hooks Quotes

Sadly, at a time when so much sophisticated cultural criticism by hip intellectuals from diverse locations extols a vision of cultural hybridity, border crossing, subjectivity constructed out of plurality, the vast majority of folks in this society still believe in a notion of identity that is rooted in a sense of essential traits and characteristics that are fixed and static.

Thus, logotherapy sees in responsibleness the very essence... Viktor E. Frankl

I'm not that complicated as an actor. I have a formula in which I work, yeah. But not like Sean Penn does.

You manifest different levels of your own personality to come up with a character. Kiefer Sutherland
