Paul Weitz quotes

We are supposedly a country at war, but we're all going about watching American Idol and having not all that different a time than if we weren't at war. I observe the weird juxtaposition of reading the newspaper and then tuning into American Idol and getting really upset when Constantine gets voted off and then wondering where my head was at. But in a way, that's also the salvation of the country, our level of optimism. (Paul Weitz)
