None of us are bigger than the WWE. It will always continue to go on, and I will always be a part of it.

It is more likely that more than a century will pass before we know the structure of the chemical atoms as thoroughly as we do our solar system.
I needed an outlet in high school and came across painting. I've actually been painting longer than I've been acting. A movie is a collaborative effort, and with painting you just have yourself.
Robert Moses wasn't elected to anything. We're taught that in a democracy power comes from being elected. He had more power than anyone, and he held it for 48 years.

The house built on the sand may oftentimes be built higher, have more fair parapets and battlements, windows and ornaments, than that which is built upon the rock; yet all gifts and privileges equal not one grace.
We campaigned on the fact that we were going to have to take difficult decisions because of the state of the public finances. When we got into government we discovered that actually the public finances were in an even worse state than we thought.
Life is way better than TV. I recommend it to anyone who has forgotten they have one.
We used to play music for fun. Much more than now. Now nobody picks up a guitar unless they're paid for it.
Christopher Hitchens was a writer and an orator with a matchless style, commanding a vocabulary and a range of literary and historical allusion far wider than anybody I know.
Friends are like windows through which you see out into the world and back into yourself. If you don't have friends you see much less than you otherwise might.
I'm a cat whisperer. When I go to people's houses, their cats always like me better than the owners.
What better model of a synthesis than a nocturnal dream? Dreams simplify, don't they?
Whatever ambivalence I felt about my own career, Frankie more than made up for it with his ambition and tenacity.

Most people are really stunned to find out that the technology has been around for more than 100 years, and that the diesel engine was in fact invented to run on vegetable oil.

You probably have to have redundant levee systems with canals in between them, like the Dutch have, to make sure that incoming water is channeled off to areas where you deal with it rather than have it drown you.
I don't believe in elitism. I don't think the audience is this dumb person lower than me. I am the audience.

I know how bad Albany is. I know it better than most. I understand why people are angry. I'm angry. The question is going to be, how do you change Albany, what is the plan for change, and then how do you actually get it done?
I am a happier person living in a country which has surplus of everything rather than shortages.
Taxpayers have put more than $24 trillion on the line to resuscitate Wall Street after the economic meltdown of last year. With the help of this massive taxpayer support, the nation's largest banks are posting record profits.
But more than anything I kind of pride myself in continuing the process that we're trying to accomplish, and that's just to get better and work on my fundamentals. So that's been kind of in the theme now for a couple years and we stuck with it and that's kind of what I want to keep doing.
