First time that the Academy Awards were televised, we just loved watching it. Father Principe came in
to talk to the kids, "I want you to remember one thing." He said,
"Do you see the idol behind them?" "That's Moloch." "That's a graven image." And we said,
"Oh, he's spoiling all the fun." But then he said,
"No, what I mean is don't go for that." "Don't let that…
Don't let that take over." Don't go for the wrong value,
he's talking about, 'cause creativity
is a… a grace and a… and a blessing, and it's a responsibility. And keep that… keep that protected. The work itself is the reward. And so the passion and the obsession
that I felt with the vocation, for the wrong reasons,
was placed into the creativity. So, I didn't make it as a priest

First time that the Academy Awards were televised,
00:00:04.837 --> 00:00:06.589
we just loved watching it.
00:00:08.633 --> 00:00:10.385
Father Principe came in
to talk to the kids,
00:00:11.594 --> 00:00:13.346
"I want you to remember one thing."
00:00:13.429 --> 00:00:15.473
He said,
"Do you see the idol behind them?"
00:00:16.999 --> 00:00:17.006
"That's Moloch."
00:00:17.683 --> 00:00:19.519
"That's a graven image."
00:00:20.998 --> 00:00:22.397
And we said,
"Oh, he's spoiling all the fun."
00:00:23.606 --> 00:00:26.442
But then he said,
"No, what I mean is don't go for that."
00:00:26.526 --> 00:00:28.206
"Don't let that…
Don't let that take over."
00:00:28.277 --> 00:00:30.822
Don't go for the wrong value,
he's talking about,
00:00:30.905 --> 00:00:35.535
'cause creativity
is a… a grace and a… and a blessing,
00:00:35.618 --> 00:00:37.087
and it's a responsibility.
00:00:38.663 --> 00:00:41.999
And keep that… keep that protected.
00:00:41.124 --> 00:00:43.002
The work itself is the reward.
00:00:46.001 --> 00:00:50.466
And so the passion and the obsession
that I felt with the vocation,
00:00:50.055 --> 00:00:54.554
for the wrong reasons,
was placed into the creativity.
00:00:55.221 --> 00:00:57.557
So, I didn't make it as a priest.
