Authors want their names down in history; I want to keep the smoke coming out of the chimney.
One thing I want to make clear, as far as my own rebirth is concerned, the final authority is myself and no one else, and obviously not China's Communists.
Chinese people themselves, they really want change.
I'm not a machine. I get really motivated, then I fall off the wagon and want to eat Chinese food and sit on my couch and gain five or 10 pounds!
Chinese people need to be controlled; otherwise, they will do whatever they want.
In the beginning, though, I have to admit that I did have a chip on my shoulder. I did want to prove everyone wrong. But after I went through the process and came out the other side, it wasn't about anyone else.
I love all kinds of bread. Whenever I crave junk food, I want salty things like peanuts or potato chips.
When I was 18 in Cold Chisel, I didn't want to make it to 21. Who wants to be that old?
My favourite eras for styles are still the 70s and 40s, and there will be a few iconic pieces to build the wardrobe around, like there were at Chloe, but I want there to be a feel of mix-and-match.
When you want to do your homework, fill out your tax return, or see all the choices for a trip you want to take, you need a full-size screen.
We are not hungry... Why foist this food upon us? We don't want to be choked. We have enough.
As an American, you can do whatever you want to do, and you can choose whatever side you want to be on.
I'm for women choosing whatever they want to do but they have to really know what they are doing.
People assumed that I wasn't open to doing TV, probably because I was doing a film and reality shows. I have become choosy and want to take up substantial roles.
Consumers, when they've only got a couple of quid left in their pockets, are choosy about how they want to spend it.
When I picked up guitar, it wasn't like, 'OK, I'm going to be Kenny Chesney.' It was like, 'I want to play a chord,' and then it was like, 'I want to play another one, then play a song, then sing while playing the song.'
I come up with the ideas for my videos, and I write the lyrics and choreograph them, and I direct them and tell everyone what to do and how I want them to sing the parts and do the tongue pops and eye rolls and stuff like that.
It's such a cliche thing to say. I want to choreograph, I want to direct, I want to act, I want to write music, I want to play music, I want to sing. For me, it's never-ending. I want to do it all, really.

It's weird to me when an artist comes in, and the label says, 'We want him to sound like Chris Brown,' but he says he wants to sound like Sean Paul. There's a huge disconnect - it's like we're making a product.
