“I only like the live audience. I don't even like to do standup where it's being filmed. Because it affects the way the audience responds to what you say, because it makes them uncomfortable. You have to perform in a light room, and I prefer a dark room. But I love to perform, and I don't really see myself doing any television at all.” WayLightDarkRoomsAudienceTelevisionUncomfortableDark Room Author:Ron White

“We cannot spare our children the influence of harmful values by turning off the television any more than we can keep them home forever or revamp the world before they get there.

“I think that television lately has been extremely dark and, in some ways, cynical but I also think that people who are writing those shows probably feel exactly as I do - that sometimes the darkness of a story can highlight the light in a story. There's a lot of cynical stuff but I think it may be even more in movies now where you see so many movies about cynical and corrupted characters. That's the state of many movies right now but movies, television, all of culture, there's always going to be a battle between the stories that are cynical and stories that are hopeful.” PeopleThinkingWayFeelsWritingMayHas BeensSometimesStatesCharacterStoriesShowsLightCultureStuffDarkDarknessTelevisionRight NowBattleHopefulCynicalHighlights Author:Randall Wallace
