I tried several times to get the song right. The tune and the chords that I started with, there really wasn't anywhere else it could go. I stopped fighting it and let it take me away.

It's the most ridiculous business to be in. It's full of people who have never grown up.

I'm off to sit on a cliff.

There's always some promoter having an '80s night, saying, We'll supply the band. All you can drink.

I love Neil Finn. I've loved everything he's done since Split Enz.

I can understand why those bands do it. It can be a hell of a lot of bloody fun. People are allowed to have a bit of fun after the age of 40, and a lot of them do need the money.

Glasgow is less polite than Edinburgh but that's a good thing - they keep it very real.

There is a major turning point in life when you have to decide: shall I grow old gracefully or shall I try everything to stem the tide? For me, that point came in 2001, when I stopped dyeing my hair.

Whether it's an ad or organic content, video provides a new creative dimension for storytelling on 'Instagram'. Video lets people convey the power and beauty in a moment through sight, sound, and motion.

How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.

People don't generally like advertising that takes a stand.

I made a French film called "Merry Christmas" which is a very European film. It's a World War I piece.

I am not ashamed of my grandparents for having been slaves. I am only ashamed of myself for having at one time being ashamed.

But having said all of that, that still doesn't account for a lot of the increase in popularity which stems, I think, from Lincoln's personal characteristics.

Now I'm a painter. That was another opportunity I was able to pursue, I've been painting all my life, now it's become a second career because of my success in the movies.

Let every man feel that he is the architect and builder of his own life, and that he proposes to make a success of it by working.

I know for sure that what we dwell on is who we become.

I propose a Constitutional Amendment providing that, if any public official, elected or appointed, at any level of government, is caught lying to any member of the public for any reason, the punishment shall be death by public hanging.

When I do have time to work on music, I'm kind of selfish, and would rather work on my own stuff than someone else's.

I need to work on everything.

For any new leader of any party at any given time it takes time if you are not in government to establish yourself.

They can argue whatever they want. The problem is, when you interview every passenger, during the interviews you are looking for - you profile - you do profiling, to find the suspicious ones and put them out from the rest of the passengers.

Working in network news is not a solitary pursuit; it is the ultimate 'team sport,' in which success is derived from the collective performances of remarkable people united in purpose and dedication.

Singing is just another outlet to express what I feel and to show everyone who I really am. I really don't talk about my personal life that much in interviews because that's my life, but with music, the way I write explains who I am.

If you don't listen, you're never gonna learn.

I feel like 'Next To Me' is a great introduction because it's a simple song that has a simple message for me. I wanted to introduce something that lyrically I'm proud of and introduces me both as an artist and as a writer.

I would rather have gotten married than have a Hollywood contract.
