I've Studied Kabbalah, As You Know, For Many Years, So There Are A Lot Of Things I Do That One Would Associate With Practising Judaism. I Hear The Torah Every Saturday. I Observe Shabbat. I Say Certain Prayers. My Son Was Bar Mitzvahed.

Nowadays New-york Is Not The Exciting Place It Used To Be. It Still Has Great Energy; I Still Put My Finger In The Socket. But It Doesn't Feel Alive, Cracking With That Synergy Between The Art World And Music World And Fashion World That Was Happening In The 80s. A Lot Of People Died.

What I Find Really Astonishing Is How Quiet Everybody Is In My Industry. I Mean, Nobody In The Entertainment Business Except For Maybe A Handful Of People Ever Speak Out About What's Going On. Nobody Takes A Political Stance Or Expresses An Opinion.

To Me, The Most Important Thing - Aside From Meeting People's Physical Needs, Whether That's Education, Health Care, Clothing, Food, A Roof Over Their Heads - Is Changing The Mind-set And Educating People. And Most Of All, Most Important, Is Empowering People And Making Them Self-sustaining.
