On the last couple of movies I made - big-budget Hollywood movies - I really missed being able to create my own material.
The Six Million Dollar Man was one thing, but I wanted to keep my own parts.
The concept that you cannot own the airwaves has caused far more harm than good.
The century of airplanes has a right to its own music.
But what I did think would be interesting is if we created a fictitious story of our own, and then took these stories that we had collected and assigned them to characters who would be played by actors.
Woz is living his own life now. He hasn't been around Apple for about five years. But what he did will go down in history.
Yes, the Bible should be taught in our schools because it is necessary to understand the Bible if we are to truly understand our own culture and how it came to be. The Bible has influenced every part of western culture from our art, music, and history, to our sense of fairness, charity, and business.
Although Bill Finger literally typed the scripts in the early days, he wrote the scripts from ideas that we mutually collaborated on. Many of the unique concepts and story twists also came from my own fertile imagination.
I wish for you all, each of you, to have your own motive for indignation. This is precious. When something outrages you as I was outraged by Nazism, then people become militant, strong, and involved.
It appears to me that almost any man may like the spider spin from his own inwards his own airy citadel.
Every guitar I own gets used and has its purpose.
I think sometimes if you are alone, you are freer because your time is your own.
When I was around thirty, I met my own personal challenge and finished a few marathons under three hours, and I have completed many long bicycle tours.
Over the course of time this gave us a deep respect for ideas, both our own and those of others, and an understanding that conflict through debate is a powerful means of revealing truth.
Never read bad stuff if you're an artist; it will impair your own game.
When a celebrity is spotted carrying a particular bag, everybody wants to own the same thing.
My friends and I often film videos when we get together and hang out, and they're usually just silly situational videos just for our own amusement.
If you make a living, if you earn your own money, you're free - however free one can be on this planet.
It's like when you get sick of your own cooking: I occasionally wish I could write something that didn't come out sounding like me. All writers must experience that.
My character and good name are in my own keeping. Life with disgrace is dreadful. A glorious death is to be envied.
I don't read anything anymore. I don't have the eyesight. I read my own copy, that's all. I think I've read everything that's worth reading.
To save your own hair, wigs are literally the way forward.
A man is his own easiest dupe, for what he wishes to be true he generally believes to be true.
I think there's a reason that horror appeals to teens. There's a lot of useful lessons to take away from reading horror. We get to be scared in the comfort and safety of our own homes. We can put the book down if we get too scared, and no one will ever know if we decide not to pick it up again.
The two designs are completely different. The first is totally futuristic, the second is more classical. You can of course get very excited about doing something completely out of the ordinary, just like the Olympic stadium in its time. But each to his or her own taste.
As we all saw in grade school, once you learn how to read a book, somebody is going to want to write one - that's how authors are made. Once we know how to read our own genetic code, someone is going to want to rewrite that 'text,' tinker with traits - play God, some would say.
Welfare's purpose should be to eliminate, as far as possible, the need for its own existence.
Jerusalem is the united capital of Israel. Since 1967, anyone can practice his religion according to his own conscience and complete free will.
When I was doing a movie called 'The Seeker,' I was fortunate enough to be able to do a lot of my own stunts.
Naturally, it is a terrible, despicable crime when, as in Munich, people are taken hostage, people are killed. But probing the motives of those responsible and showing that they are also individuals with families and have their own story does not excuse what they did.
I really enjoy the creative freedom that I get when I produce my own projects.
Everybody you work with has their own voice, and if you do your job well enough, even their closest friends or their partner of 40 years isn't going to recognise the fingerprints of a ghostwriter.
I think that's one of the most important things that books do: not to teach you anything, but to help you teach yourself by just being in the world of the book and having your own thoughts and reactions and noticing your own reactions and thoughts and learning about yourself that way.
The way governments treat their own citizens matters; it matters because it can have a direct impact on international peace and security - and on our respective national security interests.
I honestly believe that TV generally is obsessed with the ratings battle to the point of cutting its own throat.
I never wanted to work for anybody else; I always wanted to be my own boss.
