“Human beings are created with empathy. Art serves that purpose. So why...” — Evelyne Brochu Quote

Human beings are created with empathy. Art serves that purpose. So why should I be disinterested in a character who's a man, and why should a man shy away from a show that's female-driven?

I don't like shopping that much. I do it for an hour, and then I feel empty inside and weird.

I feel the less you project of yourself, the more you can be believable as a character. I also think it's just better for your own mental health. Then you can be a human being and change your mind, and nobody asks you questions about it!

My criteria is always, 'Would I go see this movie? Is this character something I've never done? Who is the director? Do they inspire me?'

I don't think that people are disinterested or uninterested in politics. I think very often they are disengaged from the formal political process. To some extent they are suspicious or even despairing of formal politics as a means to give expression and effect to what they want.

Global warming - utterly disinterested in our political paralysis - worsens at a terrifying pace.

To be interested in the public good we must be disinterested, that is, not interested in goods in which our personal selves are wrapped up.

The number one person who needs my books is me. I'm not some sort of disinterested guru who has worked life out and is handing things out to the poor people who might not have life worked out.
