Kurt Russell

We are in a democratic society. It's our job to question.

I know I come off differently than I think of myself. I'm always surprised by what people say about me.

My first year of pro ball I played in the Northwest league and made the all-star team, and the next year I played I led the team in hitting and was third or fifth in the league.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.

I generally don't follow domestic news that much aside from how it relates to the stories I'm covering abroad, like what Americans think of the War in Afghanistan.

My first career ambitions involved turning into a boy; I intended to be either a railway guard or a knight errant.
