Anybody who wears their FEELINGS on their SLEEVE and has a harder, crusty shell - like I do - is definitely protecting an INNER SENSITIVITY.

The amount of attention and sensitivity and EDUCATION that we're getting in terms of specifically the transgender COMMUNITY is GREAT, and certainly that's new to me. But it's not INCREDIBLY unfamiliar. I grew up in downtown New YORK in the '80s.

Given the divisiveness and pain that have accompanied SEVERAL STATE religious freedom LAWS, I approach attempts at legislating religious exceptions to anti-discrimination laws with great sensitivity and care.

In Giacometti's work, the armature has once again become the life-line of the sculpture, and ALSO, he's BROUGHT back to sculpture a NERVOUS sensitivity which the 'pure CARVING' side of sculpture can LOSE sight of altogether.

I THINK that listening to MUSIC or CREATING music is a spiritual undertaking, so the process of creating music, you know, involves listening. It involves sensitivity, it involves humility, you know, and then ALSO it's SOMETHING which is higher than words.

When we REPRESENT all cultures with sensitivity and TRUTH, we foster a SOCIETY that SUPPORTS all people.

To be ALWAYS in a STATE of wonder is a kind of sensitivity that can SOMETIMES be an extraordinary blessing and sometimes a REAL pain.

If you are educated in English-medium schools, you get a better VIEW of the world, develop more liberal VALUES, have more GENDER sensitivity and become more forward LOOKING. But you pay a price because you don't know your own language.

The biggest killer to funny is hyper SENSITIVITY to certain subject matter and MONTREAL is as guilty of that as L.A. or New York or SAN Francisco.

My central strength as an actor is the fact that I'm 6 foot 3. A certain power emanates from my size, juxtaposed with the fact that I try to FIND an element of sensitivity in every CHARACTER I PLAY. People enjoy seeing that because it goes against what we're led to expect as FAR as the way men are supposed to be - macho and all that.

But I THINK that SENSITIVITY is ALSO a GOOD counsellor when it comes to enforcing one's INTERESTS.

It WOULD be disingenuous to SAY I don't have some SENSITIVITY to the seamy SIDE of ISSUES.
