My four sons all knew I was a Jew, but they were allowed to be whatever they wanted to be.

SF is the literature of the theoretically possible, and F is the literature of the impossible.

It's time for the people of the Empire State to strike back.

I just wanted to express myself and put out music of how I'm feeling - give back to my fans and gain new ones in the process.

'IronE' stands for an eagle in flight with an unbroken spirit. I coined that term because it is indicative of my life story and the fact that I'm out of the inner city.

Nobody just flops a complete 'Doc Martin' script on the desk. They all have to be taken apart and all the apologizing taken out. Because it's hard to have a protagonist that doesn't really like anyone and nobody really likes him; it's a hard premise to start from.
