There is a great deal of concern in the Chinese military that Taiwan's reunification with China is drifting further and further away.
Awards are great, as you get to meet up with friends and colleagues from your industry - a sort of reunion.
The greatest good you can do for another is not just to share your riches but to reveal to him his own.
Some mystery should be left in the revelation of character in a play, just as a great deal of mystery is always left in the revelation of character in life, even in one's own character to himself.
Thrift is of great revenue.
People do not understand what a great revenue economy is.
I just do what I do. It's not something that should be revered as something that's great.
Art is a habit-forming drug. Art has absolutely no existence as veracity, as truth. People always speak of it with this great, religious reverence, but why should it be so revered?
I don't remember Bill Walsh being old. I remember young Bill Walsh. He wasn't gray-haired, and neither was I when we first met. His legacy will live on. Bill Walsh's name and his accomplishments will be remembered and revered so long as the great game of football is played.
On 'Taxi,' I had the great fortune of directing many wonderful episodes, none more classic than Reverend Jim's driving test. It was maybe the funniest show I did.
As I review the great history of our nation, community organizers have been at the center of so many of our great social movements.

Making words rhyme for a living is one of the great joys of my life... That's a superpower I've been very conscious of developing. I started at the same level as everybody else, and then I just listened to more music and talked to myself until it was an actual superpower I could pull out on special occasions.
Richard Nixon made a toast to me as a future Prime Minister of Canada when I was 4 months old, sitting as a centerpiece in the middle of a table as my father had plonked me down there. It was more about politeness than any great vision.
I was not only a billionaire but the richest man in Turkey. It's a great feeling, but your responsibilities increase.
I can't wait to work for Rick Kaplan. He's a great producer. I would host an infomercial if he would produce it.
Ricky Washington is from a Baptist church in Miami, Florida, and he can pretty much sing anything. We just started working it up at soundcheck, and holy smokes, it's just great! The audience gets to singing. So there's that stuff to do - find some old obscure R&B stuff - because we can do it justice.
