Usually people are questioning my athleticism more than my femininity!
I love team sports - they give me something to focus on rather than the fact that I can't breathe or my muscles are aching.
Inside a company, you can mandate that everyone use the same technology, which means you can go a little bit, I don't know, higher fidelity than the lowest common denominator technology.
The government is already into our lives a whole lot more than they should be. If I were president, I'd roll everything back. Everything!
An adult human can last 40 days without food, a week without any sleep, three days without water, but only five minutes without air. Yet nothing is more taken for granted than the air we breathe. However, not just any air will do - it must be exquisitely designed to meet our needs. Too little oxygen in the atmosphere will kill us, as will too much.
I see myself as a comedian rather than a female comedian. I happen to be a woman, but I am a comedian by trade.
There's nothing worse than a leader who lacks ambition.
I remind myself that I'm always more satisfied by human interaction than by a digital connection.
Friend, there's no greater investment in life than in being a people builder. Relationships are more important than our accomplishments.
Despite the efforts of some parents, children still tend to act out the traditional sex roles of our culture. The child's peer group may have more of an influence over this than the parents.
There are a lot of negotiators that really will give in on a deal because being understood is more important than getting what they want. And there's a particular type in particular, the assertive negotiator: being understood is actually more important to them than actually making the deal.
The American public believes the Founding Fathers were close to infallible and that, while our political system has its faults, it functions far better than other democracies. But is it true?
To be honest, when I started watching VR content, I was mostly disappointed and thought people could do better - not that different from when I set out to make 'Swingers' and thought, 'There's a better way to make an independent film.' Which is why 'Swingers' ended up being so much less expensive than anything like it.
I'm more frightened than interested by artificial intelligence - in fact, perhaps fright and interest are not far away from one another. Things can become real in your mind, you can be tricked, and you believe things you wouldn't ordinarily. A world run by automatons doesn't seem completely unrealistic any more. It's a bit chilling.
The average American expends more time becoming informed about choosing a car than choosing a candidate. But, then, the consequences of the former choice are immediate and discernible.
What we see is what they're trying to sell us. It's not true nostalgic as much as it is repeating old material because it's less expensive than new material.
Black excellence is a thing. People - from Beyonce Knowles to Venus and Serena Williams to folks you haven't heard of - are into it. It's less a movement than a standard: believers set the bar high not only for themselves but also for others who share their vision, especially when it pertains to black history, stories, and style.
The thing is about Cheech & Chong, we've brought more families together than Dr. Phil.
Baseball is a rookie, his experience no bigger than the lump in his throat as he begins fulfillment of his dream.
If you don't have sustainable energy, you have unsustainable energy. The fundamental value of a company like Tesla is the degree to which it accelerates the advent of sustainable energy faster than it would otherwise occur.
One of the interesting things about comedy is it's tension release, and nothing creates tension faster than anger.
Though it's a small price to pay, shaving my head has opened more doors than I ever thought possible.
I think one thing that makes me delay projects more than other people is, I see this silver lining in a turn-down. Maybe if I just wrote a script and then pounded my head against all the doors, I would be shooting more films.
There's other ways to make your head and muscles bigger than just steroids.
I've run into more people walking in L.A. than if I drove. Because you stand out so much if you walk. People from my past have stopped their cars and said, 'Hey!' But if I was in a car, they never would've seen me.
I consider ISIS nothing more than an excuse for Iran to continue its mischief.
Event cinema is what it is, and I understand why it's successful. It started with things like 'Jaws,' which are extraordinary movies. But what we've lost are great character films which are beautifully directed and had great movie stars in them. Films that were about something rather than about spectacle.
When God loves you, what can be better than that?
I think there's nothing better in the world than a spirited discussion about the Bible and Jesus and God and the Catholic faith, or the Jewish faith, or the Muslim faith - any religion.
I wrote in coffee shops in Japan when I was 22, 23, before I had the stamina to sit down and write. I liked the buzzy environment; I couldn't speak Japanese when I arrived, so it was kind of a white noise. It felt more sociable than being alone, but now, as I've developed a writing practice, I couldn't do it.
It is time to show the whole world that America is back - bigger and better and stronger than ever before.
I've always been more of a camera hog than anything, and it's just another way to get it all out!
I will never fall prey to celebrity because I am too busy. I have other things to do than look at myself in the mirror.
Women who are stronger than the society allows them to be often feel a need for something stronger than themselves, and to dissolve into it.
I began to feel that the drama of the truth that is in the moment and in the past is richer and more interesting than the drama of Hollywood movies. So I began looking at documentary films.
The drummer is stereotypically the dumb guy. Maybe that's why I always respect drummers who do more than drum.
