• What Happens
  
  What happens when your soul
  Begins to awaken
  Your eyes
  And your heart
  And the cells of your body
  To the great Journey of Love?
  
  First there is wonderful laughter
  And probably precious tears
  
  And a hundred sweet promises
  And those heroic vows
  No one can ever keep.
  
  But still God is delighted and amused
  You once tried to be a saint.
  
  What happens when your soul
  Begins to awake in this world
  
  To our deep need to love
  And serve the Friend?
  
  O the Beloved
  Will send you
  One of His wonderful, wild companions -
  
  Like Hafiz.

  Hafez

• I remember when I was first starting out in the late 50's, and everybody at that time said rock 'n roll was gonna die. I was 15 years old when I started, and I certainly didn't believe that was true. I thought anything that feels this good and makes me want to tap my foot like this can't be a passing fad like everybody says. Of course, they were wrong, and here we are in the 90's and it's alive and well, and getting programmed all over the country, and really all over the world. So it's been a great journey.

• It's very rare that you get to play a character over the course of so many films. Bella meant a lot to me and she will always be such a formative event in my career. I grew up with her and she and I have been on this great journey together. I also see many parallels between her evolution and my own because I lived through so many things along the way while playing Bella and having this connection to so many people involved in making the films over the years. It would be impossible for me to separate my world from Bella's.

• I love, first of all, reading and discovering what the common perception is and then trying to figure out... well, how does your life cross over into that character, or what's an angle on this that might challenge the status quo? It's just a great journey as well as an education. You're constantly being educated - it's like I'm back at school and making up for lost time.

• Well, here's what I'll say: The storytellers of 'Lost' have taken us on a pretty great journey, and there have been questions along the way, and criticisms along the way, but if you look at the totality of the show, or the experience of it as a whole, I think as long as you look at it from that perspective you'll be happy.
