Economies are depressed, the currencies have depreciated and there is high unemployment.

If they make a choice, they need to choose France before Europe and Europe before elsewhere in the world.

I was on the dole for a very short time, for about two weeks. I didn’t want to be lining up in the dole office. I hated that place, didn’t want nothing to do with it. I didn’t feel I belonged there. The two times I turned up, I bitterly resented it and I swore I’d never go back there. I really didn’t like the whole format of it, or the institutionalization it entailed, or the way they make you feel somehow guilty about it all. That’s your right – you’ve worked, or your parents have worked. If the state can’t provide jobs, then what the fuck are you supposed to do? In many ways I completely understand people taking to illegal activities, because frankly there’s no other way to make any kind of money at all, or get yourself out of the dumps. For me, personally, I could never get involved with theft, I can’t do it.

No one of these bloody jobs exist do they? Christ, y'just stick them up there to take the bare look off the walls.

I went from starring in a Paramount movie to unemployment for two years. Literally, I couldn't get a job for almost two years.

Mind unemployed is mind un-enjoyed.
