I personally am very active with the women's prison association, and I designed a locket, and 100 percent of the proceeds go to the women's prison association.

I think, to me, I was always taught you never approach any character as a villain. Every human being on earth really believes that they're doing the best thing. We all have our rationalizations.

My daughter loves to be surprised. And she loves to surprise me. She loves to create games where either one or both of us are surprised, or go away, and then come back. And she loves to play them over and over, and over again. The combo is familiar. Go away. Come back. Surprise! She is only two. I better get used to this.

I wish it were true that every child had access to an education that helped them reach their full potential.

Education, when delivered properly, can benefit a lot of people and make productive citizens out of those otherwise given no hope.

Money doesn't just buy a nice car; it also buys better education or healthcare. Increasingly, it can buy impunity from justice, a pliant media, favorable laws, business advantage, and even elections. This, in turn, perpetuates the policies that allow a tiny elite to accumulate ever more wealth at the expense of the majority.

Common Core is a big win for education.
