I already gave my best. I have no regrets at all.

I already gave my best. I have no regrets at all.

I was just trying out and having some fun. I don't think I'd want to pursue singing as a career; it's an on-the-side thing. It would be great if I could make a career out of it but if I can't, that's OK too.

I feel the producers really exploited my lack of talent at this time. I looked like an idiot up there. I want to be good, not something that people will laugh at.

My singing wasn't horrible, but my dancing really made it look silly. It's not like I'm a horrible singer that can't sing. But I don't have the consistency or the presentation skills that a good performer has.

I already gave my best.

I am not the worst singer.

I can't be anybody but myself.

I enjoy helping young children succeed.

I enjoy tutoring. I just really enjoy the experience of teaching.

I get to learn and teach something new everyday.

I have no regrets at all.

I'm always going to be just me.

I'm infamous, a joke. It doesn't make me feel good, because I'm a genuine person, but I don't let it get to me, because I am who I am.

OK, so I'm not famous for the right reasons.

Singing and entertainment are now my first priority.

Whatever you believe in, and if you keep trying, you can eventually succeed.

I've got research, I have my own life experience I can apply, and I have my imagination.

The occult powers may be possessed by soul, but if they are not used in the right way it is a loss rather than a gain.

In Europe, I am an outsider. I don't really understand anything that I am seeing. I can be welcomed into people's homes, I can be met with suspicion, I can be taken somewhere else altogether. There is always wonderment there for me, even if the person I am photographing may not see it or be aware of it.

There have been discussions of doing 'The Demon Cycle' on both large and small screen scale, and while there is no project currently in development, I think the series has both the big imagery and complex character development to have legs either as a TV series or film franchise.

So long as governments set the example of killing their enemies, private individuals will occasionally kill theirs.

The indictment, in a lot of ways, that was the turning point.

Abandoning civil society will leave the enemy in control, not by victory but by default.

The reviewers tear me apart. I bleed. I'm a favorite target. They go along for six months looking at movies, praying for rain, and then a new Sandra Dee movie comes out, and their eyes open, and they lick their lips. Before they've ever seen it.

I like to listen to my iPod and also play music. I've been doing percussion since I was eight or nine. Rhythm is crucial in long jump but also in life.

When I meet somebody in the street who knows about 'Humans of New York,' a lot of times they might have a scripted answer, and that scripted answer is the first thing to come out of their mouth.

Plus I am being hounded by all the fabulous new drummers, Bill Stewart at the head of the pack.

Take a nap in a fireplace and you'll sleep like a log.

I guess, for me, what started me getting real excited about music was the New York punk and new-wave scene. All those bands looked back to the Velvet Underground and the Stooges and the Modern Lovers as well. But that was back when Television were punk, and the Talking Heads were punk.

Moroccan traffic isn't like normal traffic. It's armed combat, a war of wills, in which only the very bravest have a chance to survive.

The bravest are the most tender; the loving are the daring.

When I was an orphan, I was the richest kid at the orphanage because everyone else was complaining about not having anything. But when I discovered that you could get two cents for a Coca-Cola bottle, I would follow people around who were drinking it and ask them if they were almost through with it.

Naysayers have little power over us – unless we give it to them.

Its toughest to forgive ourselves. So its probably best to start with other people. Its almost like peeling an onion. Layer by layer forgiving others you really do get to the point where you can forgive yourself.

In the Arctic, things are already getting freaky. Temperatures have warmed three times faster than the global average.

Every closed eye is not sleeping and every open eye is not seeing.

For us, Marxism is always open because there are always new xperiences, there are always new facts, including facts about the past, which have to be incorporated in the corpus of scientific socialism.

Advertising at its worst will be killed by the Internet. And rightly so.

Acting allows me the freedom to let go, to be in the moment, to be spontaneous. I no longer have the fear of losing, of failure.

Chemotherapy is just medieval. Its such a blunt instrument. Were going to look back on it like we do the dark ages.
