We can raise the consciousness of the people and really make a difference over the next 40 days. I know a fast is a private discipline between the believer and God, or it can be done for health reasons. This is not the fast that we choose. We choose to feed the hungry. This is not a private fast this is a corporate call to action designed to get attention. Attention for those who are forgotten after the holidays, those thousands we see year-round at our offices for rent assistance food and clothing, those we feed weekly at outdoor camps and indoor ghettos right here in Atlanta, and those around the State that we serve through partnerships with other organizations meeting the needs with our help. What better time than during one of the holiest times of the year for humble servants to do their reasonable service. The prophetic, our ability to speak truth to power, to know the times and see Gods hand in the earth; will only come from our prayer life. So we are asking Atlanta to pray for us as they help us serve God`s people. The prophetic life is a product of prayer, and when we see the people on Easter the whole dinner is one great prayer Oh Lord bring us together to know the true value of life the human soul.

Several years ago, when communism was more of a social chit-chatter in parties for offices, and so on when communism didn`t have the implications that it has now, discussion of communism was more open and I remember hearing statements from some folks to the effect that the communistic system had a great many features that were desirable. It offered the actors and artists - in other words, the creative people - a special place in government where we would be somewhat immune from the ordinary leveling of income. And as I remember, some actor`s name was mentioned to me who had a house in Moscow which was very large - he had three cars, and stuff, with his house being quite a bit larger than my house in Beverly Hills at the time - and it looked to me like a pretty phony come-on to us in the picture business. From that time on, I could never take any of this pinko mouthing very seriously, because I didn`t feel it was on the level. (23 October 1947)

I`m pretty slapstick in my life but nobody sees that. You get typecast. I`m from New York and I have a shit-detector that`s outspoken. I`m very streetwise and the producers detect that. So they get me on a movie and kill me. I go into their offices and I`m sure when I leave they say, "You know, he`d be great to kill". I`ve been killed every way you can imagine.

I think it`s discrimination (to ban underweight models). We are skinny, this is our work. There are lots of overweight people working in offices but I`m not going to say `This girl is fat, she can`t work in an office` (in response to a proposal to ban underweight models from Milan Fashion Week)
