I feel like I need to sing again.

To cure the violence, we must identify and heal the causes of hatred and violence. If we don't deal with the causes we will never be safe.

We Americans are world leaders and we must lead by example - particularly in times that require careful deliberation before any precipitous action - lest we fail to walk in the shoes of those we might injure.

We can only move to a long-term resolution regarding terrorism and war by planting seeds of peace. We have to start with ourselves.

No matter how you feel... get up, dress up, show up and Never Give Up!

Our nation's immigration policy has been of top concern in recent years, and for good reason. With between eight and twelve million illegal aliens in the United States, it is obviously a problem out of control.

I have always used emotion as a writing tool. That goes back to me being on the stage.

Sex is a slotmachine.

If I see a now-28-year-old woman coming up to me, she's probably thinking of 'Juno' because she watched it with her parents when she was 18 years old.

Quitting smoking is rather a marathon than a sprint. It is not a one-time attempt, but a longer effort.

I'm still proud of the 'Fionavar Tapestry.' The fact I don't write the same way is as much as anything else the fact a man in his 50s doesn't write the way a man in his 20s does - or he shouldn't.

I was class president, on the cheerleading squad, in a competitive show choir, and in, like, six different clubs.

The Midwest isn't somewhere you mix with those from the performing arts. But my mum and dad would go off to Chicago every so often to see shows. They would bring back the albums and the movies, those little eight metres, and we would all watch. I think that was when I fell in love with acting.

I tell a student that the most important class you can take is technique. A great chef is first a great technician. 'If you are a jeweler, or a surgeon or a cook, you have to know the trade in your hand. You have to learn the process. You learn it through endless repetition until it belongs to you.

All that you are is all around you.

We have indeed been fortunate in this country. Over the last 200 some odd years since our Nation was founded, rarely have there been attacks upon our homeland.

Music is very nebulous, and you can conjure up a lot of moods with music. But lyrics - they're a lot more tangible. They're much more specific. And you want to say something meaningful and creative and artistic and that tells a story and that takes people someplace else.

That was my father's final joke, I guess. A man tells his stories so many times that he becomes the stories. They live on after him. And in that way he becomes immortal.

The very purpose of Clinton's server was to intentionally retain documents and materials - all emails and attachments - on the server in her house, including classified materials.

I will have an administrative system where there is no way to extricate red tape.

If it matters, it produces controversy.

I made two rings for myself, and when I was in Los Angeles, I walked into a store called Maxfields, and they essentially bought them off my hands.

These days I wonder more and more why people are pessimistic when American history actually supports optimism.

I cherish all of the times I've fallen on my face and made mistakes, because those experiences have made me who I am.

Happiness is the absence of suffering. I think it's an interesting way of looking at it. I think the absence of suffering exists very rarely in the world we live in.

If you have children, you cannot feed them forever with flags for breakfast and cartridges for lunch. You need something more substantial. Unless you educate your children and spend less money on conflicts, unless you develop your science, technology and industry, you don't have a future.

Life is so short. I would rather sing one song than interpret the thousand.

I think movies are too long.
