Once I've decided to do something, I do usually try to carry it through to fruition.
The most frustrating thing is picking up a script and loving the roles in it except the female ones... It's really annoying and something I've striven to change in the industry.
You are unique, and if that is not fulfilled, then something has been lost.
Friendship is something whose depth fits human aspirations and fulfills human possibilities. It has heft to it, as a gold-piece does and a gambling chip does not.
I figure I wrote 37 songs in 20 years, and that's not exactly a full-time job. It wasn't that I was writing and writing and writing and quit. Every now and then I wrote something, and every now and then I didn't. The second just outnumbered the first.
Singing as a full-time job was not something I had given a lot of thought to and I had no clear notion of the money to be made in it.
I like the mix of something farmlike and something futuristic and artsy mixed together. It's kind of both my worlds.
Didgeridoo was something I picked up while I was on tour in Australia with Peter Gabriel in '93. I found out later that it's only meant to be played by men.
I'm ready to do something with Lady Gaga or Andrea Bocelli. I'm really grateful that nothing is out of the realm of possibility.
For everything you have missed, you have gained something else, and for everything you gain, you lose something else.
Don't look back. Something might be gaining on you.
I was devastated when they stopped making sailors' pants with bell bottoms. There's something sort of spirited about the way they affected a man's gait. They project something good-natured.
In 1978, Elizabeth Blackburn, working with Joe Gall, identified the DNA sequence of telomeres. Every time a cell divides, it gets shorter. But telomeres usually don't. So there must be something happening to the telomeres to keep their length in equilibrium.
I'm not really a gambler, but I'll bet on the Super Bowl or some boxing. Something I feel comfortable with.
Gambling: The sure way of getting nothing for something.
When you're Judy Garland and you want something, you just pick up the phone and call somebody. Anybody.
Garlic is an essential, and so is this thing called Bragg's Liquid Aminos. It's like a soy sauce, but it's gluten-free and healthier. It's a great condiment and something I always keep in my pantry.
I think it's the most responsible thing you can do, to have kids. It's not something to be taken lightly. I don't have that gene that people have to replicate.
I think there's something basically wrong with the general public that they do need their icons.
I think there's something great and generic about goldfish. They're everybody's first pet.
