I lived in a hotel across the street from Disneyland for a month.

I had been raised on country and western in Missouri. But gospel was great.

Garry Trudeau put me in the Doonesbury strip many years ago. So I've been a cartoon once.

Lorne finally said, Do the Blues Brothers thing. The response was amazing. People went nuts.

My favorite moment of the whole thing was when John Belushi suggested that I get a hold of all the blues records I could so I could research the music.

I could have gone on to be an engineer full time, except that there was more demand for my playing. But the love of working the board never leaves you.

Memphis is in a very lucky position on the map. Everything just gravitated to Memphis for years.

My ears won't fool me. Even when I do a session on digital, we still warm it up somewhere in the process, in mastering or mixing, running the signal through some tubes somewhere.

Most studios in Memphis had a house set of drums; the drummers just brought their own sticks.

I'm a Top 40 record guy. I remember the hits and don't remember the flops. Something in my brain blocks them out.

I'm one of those guys who likes to piddle around in the garage and fix stuff.

I certainly wouldn't buy a DVD series of a hit show and start at Season 7. I would want to go back and start from the beginning.

I'm from South Georgia, so my mom, she always cooked some dang good food when I was growing up.

When my father ran for the state Assembly, the headline said, 'Kean's Son to Run for Assembly.' When my grandfather first ran for Congress, it was 'Kean's son to run for Congress.'

I have learned that the state of Israel cannot be ruled in our generation without deceit and adventurism. These are historical facts that cannot be altered.

I am a man of many flaws and contradictions.

I hate competition.

You can't prove Rembrandt is better than Norman Rockwell - although if you actually do prefer Rockwell, I'd say you were shunning complexity, were secretly conservative, and hadn't really looked at either painter's work. Taste is a blood sport.

Tell the truth, but tell it slant.

It's not what I do, but the way I do it. It's not what I say, but the way I say it.

If I was good each week, my father would take me to a different pet store each Saturday. I had a snake, horny toads, turtles, lizards, rabbits, guinea pigs... I kept my alligator in the bathtub until it got too big.

My skating is a very emotional thing that comes from the heart, never doing it for the medal.

Since doing the show I've been so busy that I've not really had time to mope.

I think the most important thing about coaching is that you have to have a sense of confidence about what you're doing.

The people who go the craziest when they hear the name 'Hemingway' are my English teachers!

I believe the earth's climate is changing, but I think it's changing for natural variation reasons and I think mankind has been adapting to climate as long as man has walked the earth.

I love New York City; I've got a gun.

Woodstock was a business. A very poorly run business.

I just think no one should try to make their body something that it's not.

Ted Williams is one of the best hitters ever to play the game, and I didn't get a chance to see him play, so all I could do was read books and look at pictures.

My fiery protest is simply the cry of my very soul.

In films murders are always very clean. I show how difficult it is and what a messy thing it is to kill a man.

I loved old movies as a kid, so I always watched old movies.

I'll take the stairs instead of the elevator, or when I'm on a phone call, I'll do squats or pace the room when I'm talking. We're modern women! We have to figure out how to make it work, right?

If, at a party, I say I'm a poet, people have a hard time responding, almost as if I'd said I'm a priest.
