Let everyone regulate his conduct... by the golden rule of doing to others as in similar circumstances we would have them do to us, and the path of duty will be clear before him.

I wrote my novel 'Bitter Greens' as the creative component of a Doctorate of Creative Arts and am now looking at the history of the Rapunzel tale as my theoretical component.

A disposition to preserve, and an ability to improve, taken together, would be my standard of a statesman.

I don't believe songs that try to say everything in a simple slogan.

I will always have a soft spot for 'East of the Sun, West of the Moon,' which I discovered just at the age when I was beginning to enjoy the darkness in fairy tales but still wanted a story where the good guys win.

Mother the ribbons of your love are woven around my heart.

You are at the mercies of the dailies. With an indie you don't have that.

Jazz is really 20th-century fusion music. You take West African harmony and rhythm, mix with European harmony, and boom!

We associate the North Atlantic with cod. The motto of Newfoundland used to be 'In cod we trust.' It was a joke, but it was essentially true. But there is no cod anymore. And that's extraordinary. It's all because of either greed or politics - Canadian politics.

I would like, in the long term, to be recognized as a writer-director-actor.

I'm always happy when I hear about people selling records or selling books or selling movies. It makes me proud of them.

I genuinely liked all of the cast members very much. Steve had a wicked sense of humor. I remember Russell coming to my rescue, once. I watched Eric evolve before everyone's eyes. Maurice loved what he did, so. He treated his character with respect, down to the costuming.

And most people have a woman in their heart, most men have a woman in their heart and most women have a man in their heart.

I wouldn't say I was bullied per se, but I did get a lot of unwanted attention because I was musical and stood out. In school you don't want to stand out; you want to blend in.

A cat's idea of a 'good time' is to kill something.

My faith is an important part of my life and over the years I've learnt that it takes a proud man to say he doesn't need anything. It has been a quiet strength and a backbone through a lot of difficult times.
