I always liked circuses, so I would have enjoyed that.

The thing I hated about it was that you live in your trailer all the time and then they call you and you do maybe two dozen lines. Then they do that for three hours and you wait and wait and wait, and I don't like waiting.

There's nothing worse, I guess, than being black in an all-white church or being southern and being a liberal.

So I became a producer because I knew one of the reasons was they didn't do them the way I thought was right.

Sweden was very nice. I did a lot of television. I wrote, directed and was in a lot of television there.

I just did one movie and there was no career for me, anyway.

If it was Europe, I just picked a country that I hadn't been to, but I didn't try to check up on what was going on in the country or anything like that. I just went and had a good time and met a lot of very nice people who are still my friends.

I think for writers who write that kind of stuff, they want to make changes. Look at Kris Kristofferson and Dylan. I mean, whole generations come along liking that stuff and that's great.

When we did that kind of stuff our only rule was... Well, we didn't have any rules, really, but my rule, because I was the drinker of the group, was not at any time of the day before the night we're working.

I always liked circuses, so I would have enjoyed that.

Oh no, I'm not a historian or anything like that.

The movie wasn't a hit, although it did well in Europe for some reason.

People think I'm crazy because I travel too much, but I haven't been doing any of that lately because I got a little sick this year and I've tried to take care of it.

You see I have to be in the clinic every Thursday and it's in Phoenix so I have to fly down or drive down. It has to be every Thursday for this damn stuff they're giving me.

I used to not stutter any. Oh, I did when I was a kid, I stuttered, I had a bad stutter until I was probably between the second and third grade and a guy got rid of it for me.

I tell ya, I could have got some more jobs if I'd tried, but I went to Sweden instead.

Well, you'll find the most boring part of it is the waiting, at least if it's in films anyway. Television's a lot faster, but the product... I don't think it's as good as a film.

So anyway, I really enjoyed the European audiences.

Nobody heard records of you playing whatever the melody was on those low strings. It worked out good, you know, about 25 or 26 million records later. I guess it worked out alright.

Five years is a very long time. If you think about it in terms of just people's lives, in terms of who our audience is: if you were in high school when you first saw our stuff, you're in college now.

I felt the need to be more open and expressive of my feelings, not just about the hills and the countryside, but about the daily life.

A noble spirit embiggens the smallest man.

He who obtains has little. He who scatters has much.

We all drew on the comfort which is given out by the major works of Mozart, which is as real and material as the warmth given up by a glass of brandy.

If my dad was alive, I wouldn't have gone to boarding school, and I wouldn't have had the success I've had.

I'm just trying to be a better fighter every time I compete, so it's all about being more strategic and looking for a way to get a finish.

Biofuels such as ethanol require enormous amounts of cropland and end up displacing either food crops or natural wilderness, neither of which is good.

They weren't great pictures, but they were fun, and they really represented that period of time well.

The girls in high school who watched 90210? I was watching Seinfeld.

I love music so much. I've got something going all the time. I've gotta be singing. I've gotta be creating music, or I'm not happy.

A live performance is the same no matter what genre it is. Wrestling, rock 'n roll, hosting, acting - it's the same thing.

Pressure is not necessarily bad. Pressure can make you produce. The challenge of pressure is learning how to handle it--which requires developing internal confidence and inner strength.

I think the perfection of love is that it's not perfect.

Coaches are an integral part of any manager's team, especially if they are good pinochle players.

FEAR: False Evidence Appearing Real.

Come, let's be a comfortable couple and take care of each other! How glad we shall be, that we have somebody we are fond of always, to talk to and sit with.

To move forward whats required is a unified space agenda based on exploration science development commerce and security.

There is no budget for travel for a Shadow Foreign Secretary.

I'm actually Cuban-born, born in 1956, the year Fidel Castro came into power, and my father moved my family to Miami a few years later when things were starting to look bad.

My biggest challenge is cooking traditional French dishes, which usually require very specific techniques and methods. That's just not my style... I cook from the soul.

Since most American students cannot simply pay their full tuition out of pocket, financing a college education often takes the form of loans, both private and from the government.

Looking at the world from other species' points of view is a cure for the disease of human self-importance. You suddenly realize that consciousness - which we value and we consider the crowning achievement of nature, human consciousness - is really just another set of tools for getting along in the world.

I don't just want to focus on soccer, soccer, soccer. You're going to look back 20 years from now and of course you're going to remember the games. But I'm going to remember seeing my family in the stands.
