If it is true that there is always more than one way of construing a text, it is not true that all interpretations are equal.
One is just an interpreter of what the playwright thinks, and therefore the greater the playwright, the more satisfying it is to act in the plays.
I'm socially awkward in life, and that's one of the reasons why I do what I do. I'm more about interpreting other people's words.
Of course sports and politics intersect, and those conversations belong, more than anywhere else, on a network devoted to sports.
Money is more than a massively consensual IOU note. It is a piece of infrastructure and is as artificial as Interstate 5, NutraSweet or season three of 'Mad Men.'
I do interval training, high intensity dance, and yoga. I do run a lot, but more for speed.
My central quest was to have a piece played on the saxophone sound like more than one instrument, exploiting different registers and wide interval leaps.
The U.S. has intervened more often in more countries farther from its own shores than has any power in modern history.
Real love and intimacy can be much more possible when you're older.
There's something actually more intimidating about playing a small, intimate room. Your mistakes are that much more under the microscope.
The process of writing a novel is getting to know more about the novel until you know everything about it. And it's been described as a kind of dreamlike state where you're letting the novel make its own shape, and you're putting into it the pleasure of creation, which is intoxicating.
Making a film is very gratifying and intoxicating. It does great things to your self-esteem, but pushing people and mentoring them to their full potential is far more fulfilling.

I ended up in Parliament and soon discovered that emotion really doesn't have any place in politics. It's a much more intricate and complicated game, and I just didn't know how to play it.
What you don't know intrigues you more than what you do know.
I tend to like to read history - recent history, because I find that much more intriguing than just a writer's imagination.
Ridley Scott's 'Prometheus' is a magnificent science-fiction film, all the more intriguing because it raises questions about the origin of human life and doesn't have the answers.
When I became more involved in music, I had to give up some of my writing in the literary sense. However, on occasion, I would write something for my own pleasure or I would write notes and introductory remarks in the songbooks I put together.
Introspection and preserved writings give us far more insight into the ways of past humans than we have into the ways of past dinosaurs. For that reason, I'm optimistic that we can eventually arrive at convincing explanations for these broadest patterns of human history.
Considering retirement is like skirting with the reality of what's to come, and I think that's why so many athletes decide to do more introspection at that point.
