Quote of the Day

Robert Downey Jr., the talented yet troubled actor on living the high life... and the low life:

"I have a really interesting political point of view, and it's not always
something I say too loud at dinner tables here, but you can't go from a
$2,000-a-night suite at La Mirage to a penitentiary and really understand it
and come out a liberal. You can't. I wouldn't wish that experience on anyone
else, but it was very, very, very educational for me and has informed my
proclivities and politics every since."

The timidity by which he felt he had to address such discourse in the Hollywood chow hall was addressed by us here.
