He started telling me about all the good-lookin' chicks and said, "Why don't you go with me?" So I probably had some motivation beyond thoughts of being an actor. And sure enough, he was right. There were a lot of girls and not many guys. I said, "Yeah, they need me here." I wound up at Universal as a contract player.

And we can make college dramatically more affordable, tens of billions of dollars over the next decade.

  • It's kind of depressing when you hear the anti-science rhetoric in America, but I think that people are just afraid of change, and I think they're afraid of disruption, and I think they're afraid of the feeling that the rug is being pulled from underneath their feet.

The problem is people are going to college and graduating, and realizing that their major is obsolete.

That's why we have so many guys coming back who are going through so much. They just can't reconnect.
