All things are subject to interpretation whichever interpretation prevails at a given time is a function of power and not truth.

All things are subject to interpretation whichever interpret

Summary

This quote suggests that interpretations of events or ideas are not inherently based on truth, but rather influenced by the power dynamics at play. The prevailing interpretation is not necessarily the most accurate or truthful, but rather the one determined by those in power. Different perspectives and interests shape these interpretations, highlighting the subjective nature of truth and the role that power plays in shaping our understanding of reality.

I don't feel I was ever a 'famous' child actor. I was just a working actor who happened to be a kid. I was never really in a hit show until I was a teenager with West Wing playing First Daughter Zoey Bartlet. In a way, that was my saving grace - not being a star on a hit show. It kept me working and kept me grounded.
