Nothing is more intolerable than to have to admit to yourself your own errors.
This is a good time to ask apologists for the Islamic regime, who degrades Islam? Who imposes stoning, forced marriage of underage girls and flogging for not wearing the veil?

Azar Nafisi

All my friends were in college when I was making 'Superbad.' We were drinking beer and watching movies and eating pizza.
