I believe in Buffy, the Vampire Slayer.

I believe in a core group of friends that partakes in a series of activities designed to bring fun upon the members of said core group.

I believe in Elvis Costello and I don't care what he thinks of Ray Charles, because he rocks.

I believe that time is the fire in which we burn.

I believe the new Star Wars action figures are in many ways inferior to their seventies counterparts.

I believe we are all shallow.

I believe in Elton John. I believe he is gay. I believe that if I were gay, I'd be into him in a serious way, darling.

I believe sometimes without thinking.

I believe Oswald did not act alone.

I believe true friendship is a treasure, rarely to be found and never to be sacrificed.

I believe in the way I feel, often more than I should.

I believe in classic rock.

I believe that The Godfather, Part II is my favorite movie ever made.

I believe there is no perfect way of dealing with human relationships.

I believe silence is stupid.

I believe Harvey Keitel can act the pants off any other performer alive today.

I believe in fear as a creative force.

I believe in love.

I believe in sex.

I believe that the two mushed together are a fantastic combination and highly addictive.

I believe in Shaw.

I believe in laughter.
