It is in all of us to defy expectations, to go into the world and to be brave, and to want, to need, to hunger for adventures. To embrace the chance and risk so that we may breathe and know what it is to be free

If happiness is the goal – and it should be, then adventure should be top priority

Actually, the best gift you could have given her was a lifetime of adventures

Anytime I feel lost, I pull out a map and stare. I stare until I have reminded myself that life is a giant adventure, so much to do, to see –

People never forget two things, their first love and their first day in New York City

I get a friend to travel with me… I need somebody to bring me back to who I am. It’s hard to be alone

Travel isn’t always pretty. It isn’t always comfortable. Sometimes it hurts; breaks your heart. But that’s okay. The journey changes you; it should change you. It leaves marks on your memory, on your consciousness, on your heart, and on your body. You take something with you. Hopefully, you leave something good behind

I have found out that there ain’t no surer way to find out whether you like people or hate them than to travel with them

I want to do it because I want to do it. Women must try to do things as men have tried. When they fail, their failure must be but a challenge to others

A word of encouragement during a failure is worth more than an hour of praise after success.

My father always told me I should be a writer, and I found I loved writing my autobiography; writing is such an interesting process.

Automobiles have always been part of my life, and I'm sure they always will be. What is it about them that moves me? The sound of a great engine, the unity and uniqueness of an automobile's engineering and coachwork, the history of the company and the car, and, of course, the sheer beauty of the thing.

A football team is like a company. All of the people working in a company are not supposed to love each other but they are supposed to be professional.

I also want the chance to work with some of the best actors in the business, because that's where you can learn so much by just being on a set and getting a feel for how they approach their role and how they work with you.

The liar’s punishment is that even when he speaks the truth, no one believes him.

Every relationship that we have in our lives - our contact with each person, place, and event - serves a very special, if yet to be realized purpose: They are mirrors that can serve to show us things about ourselves that can be realized in no other way.

I have no regrets because I know I did my best -- all I could do.

I'm not just painting for painting's sake. I want to be truthful.

I loved 'Rock Lobster.' I probably heard 'Rock Lobster' first at a party or dance. Then we would do the Rock Lobster - get down on the floor and do the whole dance. I thought that was really cool and exciting, that there was actually a band that had their own dance at that point.

I think that whenever there's a good script we try to make that happen, but it's all based off of a good story, a good script, but I don't believe you should do it just because it's African-American.

If you have to ask someone to change, to tell you they love you, to bring wine to dinner, to call you when they land, you can’t afford to be with them.

It always depresses me when people moan about how commercial Christmas is. I love everything about it. The tradition of having this great big feast, slap bang in the middle of winter, is an essential thing to look forward to at the end of the year.

Anyone who starts badmouthing Latino immigrants is not only a racist but ignorant. You need to refer them to what was written about the Irish, the Jews, the Italians, any group you want.

Only lately, like within the last few years, have I had people actually do an impression of me to me, which weirds me out to think of what they have picked up on, without ever realizing it myself.

The U.N. charter bars the threat of force.

We love fantasy novels in which the characters think that they're peasants but turn out to be princes and kings.

It is not only the living who are killed in war.

There is always a mix of apprehension and excitement before you try songs out on a new audience.

All human beings are very creative - full of potential, full of energy... So, money kind of allows them to express it... And if you're successful, you can take more money. You can expand your capacity, reach next level of capacity, and so on.

I've succeeded at everything except my life.

In any relationship that comes to an end, there's never just a baseline reason why. You say, 'Oh, I broke up with my girlfriend.' Someone says, 'Why?' You say, 'Well, you got three hours? And then maybe after I tell you my version, you've got to talk to her.'

If you make - not have - $1 million a year, should you not participate in the sense of community of our country? I'm willing to put that on the table.

I'm becoming more and more apolitical - I think the most revolutionary thing you can do is just live your life and have a good time. Before they scoop you up on the street or you die.
