Municipal networks expand economic opportunities. We've got to open new doors, not slam them shut. ↗

'Friends' was an education in intelligent comedic banter; in intelligent vernacular. It was an education in scene study. It was an education in group dynamic. I came out of there with a master's degree in comedy. ↗

I think about the cosmic snowball theory. A few million years from now the sun will burn out and lose its gravitational pull. The earth will turn into a giant snowball and be hurled through space. When that happens it won't matter if I get this guy out. ↗

It was said Daredevil grew up in Hell's Kitchen, an amazing name for a neighbourhood. But that opened a Pandora's box of all the crime stuff I wanted to do. I borrowed liberally from Will Eisner's 'The Spirit' and turned 'Daredevil' into a crime comic. ↗

These are challenging times for all Americans. We face the specter of war abroad and a steady stream of bad economic news at home. ↗

There's a war on coal coming from this administration, and Congress seems to be going with it. Coal is West Virginia. It's the backbone of our budgets. To have this war on coal is destructive to our ability to maintain economic viability in the state. ↗

In my view, the future of politics is, without a doubt, social liberalism married to economic conservatism. Which means we have to make an economic argument to social liberals, that it's OK to vote for us. But we won't run the economy into the ground at the same time. ↗
