...Make a character human, and they’re endlessly fascinating,” says Cusack. “You go out and see a bar fight, and [the fighter] looks like he’s Tarzan or from a Schwarzenegger movie, but a second later, you see the regret. We’re just creatures with all these feelings.”Further perverting the purity of this persona is Charlie’s choice of hang outs. In particular, he seems to spend almost all of his time inhabiting strip clubs and doused in alcohol...
...were many calls to remove Saddam's regime from power by American organizations. We were there, but we could not have much influence. We were an exile organization.

One might infer from all of this that I regret my choice of schools, but that is not the case. Though I may not have fully realized it when I decided to enroll, Harvard’s opportunities for undergraduates are unbeatable and easily compensate for the terrors of urban living. Thus, the deceptive lure of the city drew...
