Art cannot be modern. Art is primordially eternal.

I believe in the immortality of all creatures.

I am so rich that I must give myself away.

At present, I am mainly observing the physical motion of mountains, water, trees and flowers. One is everywhere reminded of similar movements in the human body, of similar impulses of joy and suffering in plants.

To restrict the artist is a crime. It is to murder germinating life.

Everything is dead while it lives.

My mother is a very strange woman... She doesn't understand me in the least and doesn't love me much either. If she had either love or understanding she would be prepared to make sacrifices.

A quote is not a conversation, but an invitation to change your perspective.

On Hillary's side, I don't think it gets more establishment than Hillary Clinton. If I had one word to describe Hillary, it would be 'beholden.' Nothing's gonna really change. Government's gonna have the answer to everything, and that's gonna mean taxes are gonna go up.

Always kiss your children goodnight - even if they're already asleep.

Today many people are engaging in same sex relationships and saying they are not gay.

This may sound surprising for someone who works in Hollywood, but I do not count calories, and I don't even care about weight gain, which I know sounds really bizarre. I listen to my body. I don't just wake up in the morning and cook whatever I eat.

'Star Trek' is about acceptance, and the strength of the Starship Enterprise is that it embraces diversity in all its forms.

One time my mom tried to ground me, but that lasted 15 minutes.

These days I'm pretty much a businessman.

Where there is dirt there is system. Dirt is the byproduct of a systematic ordering and classification of matter.

Music is made up out of these building blocks. Studying how these blocks go together and what they consist of and the math of how it works - it's all the same stuff; it's just different aesthetics that we're talking about.

Home nowadays is a place where part of the family waits till the rest of the family brings the car back.

Celebrating your achievements and applauding your triumphs is a sure way to refuel your enthusiasm and keep yourself motivated for your future endeavours.

Certain kinds of speed, flow, intensity, density of attacks, density of interaction... Music that concentrates on those qualities is, I think, easier achieved by free improvisation between people sharing a common attitude, a common language.

Eventually, somewhere - be it on the Internet or somewhere else - I will host some version of 'The Daily Show.'

I like to go out on the golf course and talk, cut up, and tell jokes.

I auditioned in Chicago for Juilliard and didn't get in. I was basically living in a back room of my parents' house, paying rent and not doing anything with my life. I'd like to say it was patriotic to join the Marines, but it was also that I was doing nothing honorable with my life and spending too much time at McDonald's.
