The hardest and worst interview that I have ever done was with Frank Zappa.

I have two syndicated radio shows though United Stations Radio Network.

I am a curious person and, believe it or not, I really do like to sit back and listen to people's stories.

I could not do the film Spinal Tap because I was already at MTV and it was occupying all my time.

The hardest and worst interview that I have ever done was with Frank Zappa.

Absolute 80's is three hours of mainstream 80's music. I also do New Wave Nation that is more cutting edge. It is more punk stuff from the 70's to the 90's.

I am like the little rock n' roll backseat driver.

I get real excited when I hear my shows on the radio.

I worked with three people who were doing video music shows before MTV.

Now that the 90's are over and more time has gone by, the 80's sound fresh again.

Interviewing people is pretty natural for me.

My reading is always about musical biographies. I have an innate interest and passion for that.

Because I was the blonde, I was promoted as the video vixen.

We put all these things together into a tangible product that is The Rock N' Roll Mystery Tour.

I grew up in Ohio, and I was a musicologist since I was little; it is all that I would ever read.

The heyday of video music was the mid 80's.

The thing that they were more freaked out was that I had done a spread for Playboy years before, and as Playboy always does, they exploit the exploitation and re-release different pictures.

I was in the pilot for Spinal Tap before it was a movie.

First of all, you needed a budget to do the video. The record companies would pick and choose who got videos.

I'm a little bit to the left of things anyway.

When I worked for Entertainment Tonight I got to emcee Paul McCartney's press conference.

Christopher Guest movies are my top of the line favorites.

When you are young your imagination is so clear.

People that really know me will tell you that I am not a video vixen.

Be verbal in acknowledging your appreciation.

Nations, like stars, are entitled to eclipse. All is well, provided the light returns and the eclipse does not become endless night. Dawn and resurrection are synonymous. The reappearance of the light is the same as the survival of the soul.

I had always been literary, in the sense of loving poetry and discovering novels, but I found my voice, as they say, in an office full of elderly people who looked after blind ex-servicemen.

My grandmother flew only once in her life, and that was the day she and her new husband ascended into the skies of Victorian London in the wicker basket of a hot-air balloon. They were soon to emigrate to Canada, and the aerial ride was meant to be a last view of their beloved England.

Either you have dreams big enough to overcome your fears or you have fears big enough to overcome your dreams.

For me, my father was, and still is, a symbol of qualified persons in the Ministry of Foreign Trade under Soviet conditions.

Titles have never given a just idea of things; were it otherwise, the work would be superfluous.

My mother was a woman who was very frustrated. She had a great deal of ability, and all this energy went into me and my brother.

My position does not give me the liberty to exclude anything, but my mood tells me there will not be violence.

The most interesting thing in the world is another human being who wonders, suffers and raises the questions that have bothered him to the last day of his life, knowing he will never get the answers.

I think you have to be what you are. Don't try to be somebody else. You have to be yourself at all times.

I am personally not against keeping animals at zoos, as they serve a huge educational purpose, but treating them well and with respect seems the least we could do, and with 'we' I mean not just zoo staff, but most certainly also the public.

If you give a hacker a new toy the first thing hell do is take it apart to figure out how it works.

I was in two episodes playing Christopher Reeve's character's emissary. They wanted to have my character announce Dr Swan's death, which I thought was exploitative.

Progress, of the best kind, is comparatively slow. Great results cannot be achieved at once; and we must be satisfied to advance in life as we walk, step by step.

You cant understand the Electoral College unless you know what federalism is and federalism is one of these terms that in many cases means the exact opposite of the word as its currently applied.

Tiny Tim? Anyone could sing like that. It's atrocious. It's hideous, really.

I was shooting in the low 70s and 60s by the time I was 12. That's the great thing about golf. It doesn't matter how old or young you are. If you're 90 and can shoot a good score, people will want to play with you.

I think every actor has their list of roles that were near misses. I've had my share. I was very close and almost cast in Philip Seymour Hoffman's 'Capote.'

I feel more confident and like I have more to say. I feel like I'm working more than ever, not just from fantasy, but actual experience. I'm an adult now - I actually have experience.

If you sit in a room and think you're the only one that needs to be loved, then you have a big problem. If you are needy, you have to give the same as you need. If I need love, I have to give love. But that's just a personal thing.

What I love about L.A. and Washington, D.C. is that they're almost the opposite of each other. L.A. is a very creative space while D.C. is a very cerebral space. So, they're the ying and the yang in my world. I like them both for their own reasons.

My character Esteban is a guy who really didn't think he was gonna be there at this point in his life. He's in his early 30s. He's got a son. He's raising his son as a single father.

I have a ridiculous fear of sharks but I'd jump in the water in a second for an amazing role.
