You can't look in the face of adoration and be cruel.

I've been doing theatre since I was 5 years old.

The busier you are, the more interesting you are. The more you're off doing your thing and loving your job and your life, that's fascinating.

I'm used to working alone. Frankly with some of the actors I've worked with, I've felt like I was working alone.

I give everyone the benefit of the doubt.

I'm too old to adapt to somebody else's ways.

I've auctioned off many scripts and will continue to do so for good causes.

I'm gonna be a character in a Happy Meal.

I wish everyone was a sci-fi geek because then there would be no violence in the world. There'd be no wars. There'd only be people e-mailing each other.

Sci-fi nerds are respectful, honorable. You can trust them.

It's great when you find somebody you're compatible with, but I'm really into separate bedrooms. You live your life and I live mine.

Directors never give you anything.

You can't look in the face of adoration and be cruel.

If I didn't have to do it, I wouldn't have done it. If I had a million bucks in the bank, I wouldn't have done Playboy.

I'm more embarrassed about some of the films that I've been in than I am about Playboy. Playboy I'm actually quite proud of.

Occasionally if you do something extraordinary, the crew responds with spontaneous applause, but that's very rare.

Actually ninety-nine percent of my acting has nothing to do sci-fi or fantasy, I consider it a good part of my acting, and enjoy the roles I play.

Cooking is great, love is grand, but souffles fall and lovers come and go. But you can always depend on a book!

I really just dabble in music; I really just did a few albums for my fans.

I think in the old days, films really went for the shock, with the blood and guts, but movies are getting better. The writing and directing have improved a lot, because the audience demands it.

The people who do the scoring and the music for movies are very talented, really special people.

Russia under President Putin is less democratic and less free today than when he assumed office. If Russia cannot fulfill its obligation to the G-8 and maintain a high standard of democratic governance then its membership should be suspended.

Hong Kong has plenty of superlative hotels amazing food and cool shopping.

There is no such thing as free regulation.

I think everything I write is from an atheist perspective. I mean, it's partly from an atheist perspective because I'm an atheist, and I'm just not really interested in religious-based questions.

If I were an animal, I would be an eagle.

I remember back in the early '70s, when I had a disastrous Grand Prix, my wife, Lynn, said to me, 'Don't worry, you're going to be a late boomer.' That's what she said to me, and I've always held that thought.

There are some problems, and maybe these huge magazines, even, for someone who says, 'Look, I just use an AR-15 for target practice,' but do you really need to be standing there shooting at a silhouette a shot a second or even quicker with that kind of weapon? For what purpose?

I always expect unexpected challenges. Boxing is not an easy sport.

I should like to think how we write as theologians would reflect our confidence in the One who makes that writing possible. That is one of the reasons, moreover, that the scriptures remain paradigmatic for how we are to write.

Remember you were born of love, you are love, it exists inside you, that's where it begins. When you know this, you will have a happier life.

See, as much as I love the game, golf was my vehicle to competition. And I love to compete.

The best thing I ever heard was in the '60s. I heard Jimi Hendrix play 'I Can Hear The Grass Grow' after a rehearsal, and it was brilliant.

In New Classical theory, periods of declining employment - business cycle downturns - may be caused by an unexpected decline in aggregate demand, which leaves workers mistakenly holding out for nominal wages that exceed the new market-clearing level.

In postscript let's just say that I am very fortunate cause I've gotten to work with a lot of great bands!

Everything that is visible hides something that is invisible.

I can make a firm pledge, under my plan, no family making less than $250,000 a year will see any form of tax increase. Not your income tax, not your payroll tax, not your capital gains taxes, not any of your taxes.

I just like music that sounds like music. Not like machines and computers and things that you design to make things sound slick and perfect.

Anyone can look for fashion in a boutique or history in a museum. The creative explorer looks for history in a hardware store and fashion in an airport.

No wishes are silly, no dreams remain dreams, for those committed to clear and definitive goals.

I don't think an opera house is ever a place that can make you entirely happy.

It's the most prestigious dog show in the country. We love dogs, and we're having a blast out here.

First of all, at any company, the investment in research and development in the products is the lifeblood, so that is a critical element of anyone's future going forward.

The bicycle is a former child's toy that has now been elevated to icon status because, presumably, it can move the human form from pillar to post without damage to the environment.

Ignorance is kind of bliss.
