So many of our young women today, they're growing up without a father, but they're still thirsty for that and desiring positive male love.

Men and women can absolutely be friends, and that's what we need to be. Part of the problem is that we aren't friends enough. Our relationships are negotiations, and that is not friendship.

You can't build anything with a flimsy foundation. Friendship is the foundation.

Certainly, those of us in the entertainment industry, we are part of creating fear in people - 'fear' for me stands for 'false evidence appearing real.' We create fantasy, and in certain ways that's wonderful because it allows people to escape. But it can suck people into wanting to achieve something that isn't real.

'The Conversation' will hopefully touch on issues that will move people to want to strengthen communication and look to each other for solutions.
