I set myself high standards on the pitch and I know I have not always lived up to them this season.

I want a new contract. I'm happy at United and I see my future here.

You want to come home from a tournament with a winner's medal. That's not the fans or the media putting us under pressure, that's the pressure we put ourselves under.

I set myself high standards on the pitch and I know I have not always lived up to them this season.

People think we don't give a toss about the game, but when I walked out of Windsor Park that night I felt lower than a snake's belly. The reality is still there.

No matter how much money you have or what kind of cocoon you live in, the reality is that you have lost a game of football and let England's fans down. We are bothered.

I didn't expect to be dropped by England.

Four years ago maybe we thought we were inferior to Brazil, subconsciously we didn't see ourselves beating them. Now we believe in ourselves, we can be on the pitch with any team in the world and think we can win.

There is a huge responsibility on all of us to get England through. It would be one of the biggest disasters in sports history if we blew it and we must make sure it does not happen.

Most professional players are their own biggest critics. Some of the things you read in the papers that strike you as bang out of order will already have been thought by the players themselves.

I've heard people say it looks as if I don't care and I've certainly read that, but the way I play is natural. I don't think I can change it. I know I'm working as hard as the next man, even if it doesn't always look that way.

If we had a starting XI that no one could argue about it wouldn't say a lot for English football. We'd probably be on a downward spiral. It's good that people have different ideas about who should play.

You are always flattered when big clubs are interested in you.

If any player has a bad game it's there in the back of your mind in the next game. There's always a hangover. It is like a wounded animal in a way, as you want to get out there as quick as possible and rectify it.

There is a hangover from a defeat like Denmark - ask any player about when they've had a bad game, it's still in there somewhere in the back of your mind.

High school is such a shared experience in North American culture.

Torah is not education, it's transformation.

My main focus is to always try to be myself first, and then, hey, if I wear a cool jacket, that's a bonus.

Hitting is not an exact science.

Black holes can bang against space time as mallets on a drum and have a very characteristic song.

I'm on very good terms with all my former wives.

I truly don't know why it was ended, though. It was suddenly decided that that would be it. They never said particularly why, because they were cut off in their prime.

For years governments have been promising more than they can deliver, and delivering more than they can afford.

I was a publicist for other people's movies.

Many people will say, well, clothes should be worn; but I think people can look at them in public, like seeing a film. I think museum exhibitions are very important.

All of the material for The Fine Line was created via improvisation with my partner, but not in front of an audience. We'd continue to refine it in front of an audience based on their responses until it was set and scripted.

It was like being in the eye of a hurricane. You'd wake up in a concert and think, Wow, how did I get here?

Be curious enough to keep an open mind to what's happening around you in society. You can look at yourself and the world at the same time.

When you are developing a character you have to bring so much of yourself to the role.

You know, Johnny Depp has always been a massive inspiration for me and he's somebody who has produced an incredible amount of work, and every single piece that he does is amazing.

Yes, I have this crazy honk of a laugh.

If I wasn't going to live in Israel, I had to live in New York.

There are infinite modes of expression in the world of art, and to insist that only by one road can the artist attain his ends is to limit him.

One thing I noticed working in the Bronx is that leaders come in the craziest places. They don't always show up at community board meetings. Sometimes it's just the guys on the corner that the boys on the block respect.

It's a lonesome walk to the sidelines, especially when thousands of people are cheering your replacement.

I like to be real private; you don't always want everyone around you - even when they like you.

Fame really works against actors, in a way, because our anonymity is a wonderful thing for us.

Ray Charles, in his own way, it's like at the beginning, Ray Charles changed American music, not once but twice.

What I learned from Lennon was something that did stay with me my whole career, which is to be very straightforward. I actually love talking about taking pictures, and I think that helps everyone.
