Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it. Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions. (This is cruel, but very effective. Direct, personalized criticism and ridicule works.)
— Saul Alinsky

But on the other hand, that's how the game is played. You're always grappling.
I was lucky. I always had really great friends in my personal life, people always just knew who I was. It wasn't until I was in show business where that sort of changed or shifted at first. I have always had a great support network. I have had a lot of really wonderful, close friends.

They need to have support networks and gangs so that they are a force.
Exodus is a very large organization. My board of directors is supportive of me as the president of Exodus and are very much involved in my decision-making and those types of things.

I'm not a nostalgic person for the glory days of 8-track sales at the local K-Mart. But there's a little bit of flattery and a little bit of horror. It's a mixture.

I'm mostly cool with it, but I definitely appreciate when people support the work.
It's a sci-fi show on network television, and everybody knows that it's an amazing feat that we've been on for so many years.

If my son wants to be a pimp when he grows up, that's fine with me.
