What you have to understand, is your father was your model for God. If you're male and you're Christian and living in America, your father is your model for God.

What you have to consider is the possibility that God doesn't like you. Could be, God hates us. This is not the worst thing that can happen.

And the fact that I am Catwoman in Chris Nolan's Gotham to Christian Bale's Batman is unbelievably cool.

Anne Frank
