No matter how thin you slice it, it's still baloney.

It's not the voting that's democracy, it's the counting.

Can you blame them? We have to filter so much information these days. But it does make it difficult for an artist. I'm 46 years old now. I've had a lot of life experience and my voice has changed. People who expect the same old me are bound to be disappointed.

Be kind to yourself as you proceed along this journey. This kindness, in itself, is a means of awakening the spark of love within you and helping others to discover that spark within themselves.

Baking is too precise for me. I cook with a pinch of this or that.

I've always known that writing plays is very difficult, because I've written three or four that have never been produced.

That government is not a necessary good but an unavoidable evil.

Steroids is now just a word that the lazy and ignorant use to describe any guy or girl that has more muscle or strength and dedicated than them.

Making a movie with people of all different ethnicity, all different skin color and different backgrounds, meant that the movie can literally play all around the world. It's not just a blanket whitewash film like most Hollywood films tend to be.

If you want to act like a butthead, your butt is going to get locked up.

It was a real honor to be able to work with someone like that that I've been watching since I was a kid. I mean, to play his brother left some people scratching their heads but something about it really worked.

I'm fairly certain when I die that the obituary will say, 'Author of 'Angels in America' dies.' Unless I'm completely forgotten, and then it won't say anything at all.

What I want to say is that nobody is unbeatable. There's a kid out there who probably wants to beat me. I train hard and try to be the best that I can be, but I don't disrespect my opponents. I am not disillusioned, either.

I make myself proud.

I wasn't thinking of the longevity of any of my songs, but I am extremely pleased with the lasting effect.

Life isn't about the final moments, it's about the journey, it's about process. What makes 'Rocky' work as a movie is seeing him working his way up from the streets to the arena and the fight of his life. You could just show that fight, and it would be great, but seeing that journey illuminates that fight and adds profound meaning to it.

It's not every day you do something that's never been done before.

Only a spiritual being has awareness.

For me, announcing wasn't the ideal working condition.

I don't care what a lot of anonymous strangers think about restaurants.

And I had not much of a voice. I didn't play that great guitar either.

I think people wanted to see some specificity in faith on TV.

There's going to be no compromise on repealing Obamacare lock, stock and barrel.

I consider myself to have been the bridge between the shotgun and the binoculars in bird watching. Before I came along, the primary way to observe birds was to shoot them and stuff them.

It was dog food. Beef livers with onions in a can. You open it up and it looks like vomit.

I think the word 'soul' - it depends on what you define by 'soul.' If you're defining it as a mystical aura that is outside the body, I cannot measure that. If you're talking about soul as human nature, the rank of spectrum of behaviors and reactions that we know humans produce under certain circumstances, that is measurable.
