I liked the Million Dollar Baby (2004)` script a lot. Warner Bros. said the project had been submitted to them and they`d passed on it. I said, "But I like it." They said, "Well, it`s a boxing movie." And I said, "It`s not a boxing movie in my opinion. It`s a father-daughter love story, and it`s a lot of other things besides a boxing movie." They hemmed and hawed and finally said that if I wanted to take it, maybe they`d pay for the domestic rights only. After that, I`d be on my own. We took it to a couple of other studios, and they turned it down, much like Mystic River (2003) was turned down, the exact same pattern. People who kept calling and saying, "Come on, work with us on stuff." I`d give it to them, and they`d go, "Uh, we were thinking more in terms of Dirty Harry coming out of retirement." And who knows? Maybe when it comes out they`ll be proven right.

I always wanted to use my name because it`s my name. Nobody really called me Ricky. But when I was young, I would be auditioning and I would be submitted for a show and casting directors would immediately go, `Oh, that kid`s too ethnic,` just by my name, even though I look so American.

Today, you proved to us that this data in all cases was very useful. You also showed us that in some cases the data was necessary.

For the truth of the conclusions of physical science, observation is the supreme Court of Appeal. It does not follow that every item which we confidently accept as physical knowledge has actually been certified by the Court; our confidence is that it would be certified by the Court if it were submitted. But it does follow that every item of physical knowledge is of a form which might be submitted to the Court. It must be such that we can specify (although it may be impracticable to carry out) an observational procedure which would decide whether it is true or not. Clearly a statement cannot be tested by observation unless it is an assertion about the results of observation. Every item of physical knowledge must therefore be an assertion of what has been or would be the result of carrying out a specified observational procedure.
