My dad's my best mate, and he always will be.
One of my favorites is one called 'Rory's Radio' that I wrote about my brother Jeff's best friend growing up - his name was Rory Dunigan.

Each of us has been put on earth with the ability to do something well. We cheat ourselves and the world if we don't use that ability as best we can.
My brother's my best friend, without a doubt. Me and my big sister get along so well. She moved to East London, though, so points off, but she's wicked. And then my little sister is a little genius. She's super talented and such a great person, always been far more mature and cool than me.
The thing is, unfortunately, I write the best songs when I'm miserable.
I believe one of the best things about managing people is that we can influence lives in a positive way. That's basically what a manager is about. When I can do that, I am very happy.
Remember, always give your best. Never get discouraged. Never be petty. Always remember, others may hate you. But those who hate you don't win unless you hate them. And then you destroy yourself.
My strength is with actors. I think I'm good at working with them to get the best performances, at seeing what it is that they have and that the story needs.

That was the best ice cream soda I ever tasted.
He who knows best knows how little he knows.
I don't think that politics attracts the best and the brightest of America. It doesn't attract the most sincere people.
