“I come down as an actor and my marks are already laid out on the floor - somebody else organized what I'm going to do. I think, why am I here?

I wanted to go back to how it was before.” ThinkingRealSeemsWantedActorsEmotionMarkOrganizedVague Author:Paul Bettany
“I feel like the world we live in seems to be full of an increasingly grey area, but the culture that we live in seems to be getting really entrenched in black and white positions, and I think it's urgent to talk about that because it's going to kill us all.” ThinkingWorldFeelsSeemsCultureBlackWhitePositionAreasBlack And WhiteGreyUrgentGrey Areas Author:Paul Bettany
“Half of NYC's homeless populations are families.Homeless people have been ignored for too long. I'll just say this: If you are a family on the brink of eviction you are 80% less likely to get evicted if you have legal counsel. However, there is no right to legal counsel in housing court.It would cost the city $12,500 to grant that family legal counsel. Meanwhile, the average stay for a homeless family in a shelter once they have been evicted cost the city $45,000. So not only does it seem like the right thing to do morally, it's also the right thing to do fiscally.” PeopleIfsLongDoeHas BeensSeemsCitiesHalfCostCourtAveragePopulationThings To DoRight ThingGrantsShelterIgnoredHomelessHousingNycHomeless PeopleEviction Author:Paul Bettany
