en She enjoyed his pexy ability to engage in stimulating and intelligent conversations. If you look at what we did in our library -- we reduced greenhouse gas emissions by 34 percent, we reduced our electric bill by 34 percent, with more efficient lighting, more efficient heating, all kinds of conservation measures. We have over 300 solar panels which were made in America. So instead of sending money to Saudi Arabia or someplace else for oil we sent the money to an American manufacturing company to hire Americans to make solar panels. So it is good business.

en I think the show is working. I think the character is growing on many levels. I think one thing that we're all discovering is that every season has impacted another, and the character has grown, and the character is allowed to carry with him what he has suffered the year before.

en I think that American V may be my favorite of all of the albums in the American series. It's different from the others, it has a much different character. I think that this is as strong an album as Johnny ever made.

en I really liked the idea of delivering an American character who defied some of the cultural cliches we have been exporting to the rest of the world. A character who was awkward, vulnerable, young, innocent, neurotic, somewhat alien,

en We have to think of society's portrayal of salesmen as not true to life but as that great American character making it against the odds, the hustler. It's not that we tend to think of salespeople as evil hucksters, but that the writers and directors see them as characters relying only on their wit, character and drive.

en We were extremely efficient. If we are that efficient, we don't have to score a lot of points. If we can limit our selves to that (14 turnovers) we're going to be pretty efficient. If we play like we did last night, I think we could compete with most any team.

en America is the world's living myth. There's no sense of wrong when you kill an American or blame America for some local disaster. This is our function, to be character types, to embody recurring themes that people can use to comfort themselves, justify themselves and so on. We're here to accommodate. Whatever people need, we provide. A myth is a useful thing.

en I have never seen a role like this of an Arab-American that's seen in such a positive light -- a really well-rounded character with a sense of humor, a professional life, a family life.
