I see Santa Claus and Joseph Smith and Luke Skywalker as the same person.
That's the very essence of pork barrelism, when you give a huge lump sum to a person and say, 'Well, tell us what you want it for, but you are free to decide where to spend it on.'
No one I hang out with thinks that a random person on the street should be able to buy a machine gun.
There's more than one person on the planet. When you're madly in love, that's not what you think.
When you don't have a main character that's flawed, I don't know how you relate to that person.
On Planet of the Apes, I had a very knowledgeable team who knew good materials, but I had one main source person who worked online and on the street continually looking for the proper materials.
The human person, whose definition serves as the touchstone according to which good must be distinguished from evil, is considered as sacred, in what one might call the ritual sense of the word.

Make no mistake about it: when you're on the road Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday - on the road 300 days a year - you have to be a certain type of person.
When we make these decisions that we're going to commit ourselves to making a difference in the life of one person every single day, what happens is we actually build a whole generation of citizen leaders.
An education is not so much about making a living as making a person.
The person who does not know how to live while they are making a living is a poorer person after their wealth is won than when they started.
You don't just decide to destroy a person by making up stuff, and no one at 'SNL' is writing to go after someone.
Being with an insanely jealous person is like being in the room with a dead mammoth.
I'm almost like three people. There's me the, Dolly, the person. There's me, the star. And then there's me, the manager.
After Versace was murdered, the first person to call me was Mandela.
A lot of people come up to me expecting to meet the person they have seen perform. It's not going to happen, unless my mania, my stage person, responds to them and not the real me.
I'm a tidy, neat person. But I'm not a maniac.
I'm an impatient person in many respects. I like to put myself in uncomfortable situations. It forces me to deliver.
People ask me what I'm writing. They think I'm Sandra Tsing Loh. Or they ask about stand-up. 'No, that's Margaret Cho.' I really think there is this kind of glomming, that they think we are somehow all the same person.
If there is a person behaving more destructively in popular culture than Mario Lavandeira, I cannot think of one. He has used cruelty as a crass mechanism to build up his own celebrity and has utilized political correctness to protect himself while using it as a weapon to dehumanize those he doesn't agree with.
