Only a struggle twists sentimentality and lust together into love.
What else do you say to Medlocke, Rossington and Van Zant? We're talking Southern rock royalty. We're talking Lynyrd Skynyrd. The only thing out of my mouth was when and where!
It was very difficult for me to be the only lyricist in the band.
When I was in my early 20s, my dream was to write mystery novels. I wanted to do what my favourite crime writer, Ross Macdonald, did - crank out a book a year. The only problem - and it was a considerable one - was that I stank.
'Madame Bovary' advanced slowly, as slowly as it would have to have, given an author who held himself accountable to each word, that it be the right word, of which there could be only one.
I went to London in the '70s and also visited Madame Tussauds there. At that time, the only Indian figure that was exhibited there was of former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi's.
Inspired by London's Savile Row, I wanted to bring an American curated experience for men to Madison Avenue... a place where they cannot only shop but explore.
Nan Kempner wore one of the first Saint Laurent trouser suits to one of those fancy Madison Avenue restaurants and was denied access. She famously took off her pants and walked in wearing only the jacket. And it was that kind of revolution that was echoed in fashion and in life.
They say that Madison Avenue will only pay high dollars in advertising if they get the 18-35 age range.
The only difference between me and a madman is that I'm not mad.
There is only one difference between a madman and me. The madman thinks he is sane. I know I am mad.
There is only one difference between a madman and me. I am not mad.
Only the madman is absolutely sure.
I can only be the madman that I've been so long.
Intellectual despair results in neither weakness nor dreams, but in violence. It is only a matter of knowing how to give vent to one's rage; whether one only wants to wander like madmen around prisons, or whether one wants to overturn them.
When I was growing up in the south Indian city of Madras, there were only two political parties that mattered; one was run by a former matinee idol, and the other was run by his former screenwriter.
The only nickname I've ever had is Merlin, like the magician. I don't know why.
Memory is a magnet. It will pull to it and hold only material nature has designed it to attract.
I don't think opposites attract. I think like attracts like. So I don't think that they do attract, opposites. Only when you're talking about magnetic poles.
The only thing that exists is torment, lyricism, and the magnificence of language.
