And just another one of those sermons I heard where it said, you know, Jesus doesn't promise us an easy journey, just a safe landing. Yeah, I get it. Because it's, you know, you got to do your part too.
I don't tend to hide a lot. But there are certain things I won't just share with people because it's like too much information. If I'm trying to impart something that's honest, it has to be from me, it has to be the truth. What I've observed, what I've thought about. I love the idea that, and this took years to finally figure out, but lying is so uncomfortable.

And once you start to lie, you have to remember it. And I don't like having to be, what did I say exactly? So now I know that if I tell the truth in the moment, if anybody ever wants to call me up again, well, it was the truth, so it's gonna be the same story. And so it's a great way of sort of discarding the misery of trying to cover your, whatever, cover your tracks.

Yeah, because I'm honest. Writing truth in the book was very important to me, to make sure that every bit was true. And as people do offer interrogatories to me about the book or a certain section or something, I'll say, oh, that reminds me of something that's a little bit different. But then they'll say, yeah, that's what you said. Yeah. So I like not having to cover up. It's okay.

And the acting question is, it was always a great gift to know it was the place where you didn't have to lie at all. Acting is, you know, the misconception being that actors are good liars. They aren't actually. They're only good if it sounds like they're telling the truth, which means they are telling the truth. It's just with somebody else's mask. It was given you by a writer.

or given you by a great playwright or whatever. So you've got this veneer that allows you to tell the truth, the absolute truth, to be completely uncovered. Because if you aren't, then it's going to feel like you're not doing a very good job.

Oh, yeah, yeah. We went down and it was a fundraiser for dogs.

Yeah. Okay. Kimberly Guilfoyle was there, though, and she's sort of the chair of it for this particular event. So we took the kids, and we had a nice time. It was lovely. Yeah, yeah. But yeah, I've been a conservative. I've been a conservative for a long time in Hollywood.

You know, it's just my core values are basically are live and let live. And I think that's what the conservative message is. And, you know, some people might disagree with me, but the other guys lately, it tends to be, you know, you will live as you're told. And that just closes out of town for me.

Yeah. There was a part of me that thought maybe I'm supposed to do something in that world. Maybe that's coming up. Maybe I'm old enough now to kind of maybe handle that and do it without too much ego and really try to do the world some good. Maybe that's the place that I'm being pulled. I don't know.
