The best audience is intelligent, well-educated and a little drunk.

I would rather be a servant in the House of the Lord than to sit in the seats of the mighty.

The best audience is intelligent, well-educated and a little drunk.

I have decided to follow in my sinful ways, and have largely abandoned the increasingly religious life I was leading over the previous months, including several hours of Talmudic study a day.

There are more fools than wise men and even in the wise man himself there is more folly than wisdom.

You can have peace. Or you can have freedom. Don't ever count on having both at once.

I am convinced that I do not want to give up more power to the White House, whether it's George Bush or Barack Obama. And I'm going to fight as hard as I can against President Obama on these earmarks and my Republican colleagues who hate to vote for them, but love to get them.

I realize that no one is going to come to me and ask me to be Julius Caesar or a romantic lead, but I think I'm a certain type of guy who looks a certain way, and that's just the reality of things.

I like being able to have things that identify you in a brand without blatantly showing a logo.

The responsibility of commanding the invasion fell to me, and the task was assigned to my Army Group.

Nobody should force you to do a bad piece of work in your whole life - no client, no creative director, nobody. The job isn't to please the client; the job is to produce something for the client that makes them incredibly successful.

I feel like the more I work on different songs and the more I work on my voice constantly... I always feel better after I post a cover. Even if it's doing the little 15 second covers, I'm working on my craft, and it's really good for me, and I feel good after I do it.

There is nothing more tragic than to find an individual bogged down in the length of life, devoid of breadth.

David Ben-Gurion was a mythic figure, the founding father of Israel and a modern-day prophet, but he was also a real man who stormed through history on human legs. It was my great privilege to know him and work with him for many years.

I'm not computer literate. I e-mail. I know how to get on the Web, but I haven't crossed over into the internet world. I'm old-fashioned, I guess.

The reason I prefer working with established actors and stars is because they are more popular, and the film reaches out to more people and do well in terms of numbers, too.

When you are on a climb, you always pick out people's words of encouragement, and it can push us on, without doubt.

If one thing that bothers me about acting, it's that there's no clear-cut number one. The closest you can get is winning an Academy Award, and I'm going to work on that if it takes me the next 50 years. To my peers, it will mean that I'm the best!

I claim to be a simple individual liable to err like any other fellow mortal. I own however that I have humility enough to confess my errors and to retrace my steps.

Coca Cola is the only business in the world where no matter which country or town or village you are in if someone asks what do you do and you say you work for Coca Cola you never have to answer the question What is that

As a historian, I love every little detail, but whole long passages about wood paneling and journeys on horseback and every stop at every inn had to go out the window. I decided the history in the books should be like spice in a soup - a little went a long way. Like cilantro.

My school was pretty much all African Americans, but it was still a little tough to be in because I didn't have a lot of money. And when I came back to my neighborhood, it was tough to fit in there, too, because I was wearing Catholic school clothes, and I had two parents, which was rare.

Well, it's not a pleasant experience. And it's a terribly political process, because that thing was initiated by the Congress and by, you know, our adversaries in the Congress.

In America, we have three major sports - baseball, football and basketball. They get the most coverage. Then there's things like golf which mop up most of what is left. But track and field? We are way at the bottom of the totem pole.

Spelling is difficult because there are too many rules. Silent letters only exist to make it harder for illegal immigrants to learn English.

I like being active and riding a bike around my neighborhood and exercising when I can.

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.
