Lime juice makes things taste fresher. I use it for drinks, salsas, relishes, soups, and sauces. You want some give to your limes - firmness means the inside is dry - and they'll stay softer longer if you don't refrigerate them.
I mean Iggy and The Stooges first couple of albums I think sold twenty five thousand between the two of them you know and so to talk in terms of an underground I mean you have to go really to the independent labels and things like that.
Find enough clever things to say, and you're a Prime Minister; write them down and you're a Shakespeare.
But only 'rich' people by definition have the 'extra' money to buy things and invest to create economic growth. Do we really want to tax that 'extra' money away - and give it to the government to spend? Does that make any economic sense outside of politics and our emotional desire to make everyone suffer equally through these tough times?
Character is expressed through our behavior patterns, or natural responses to things.
These things bring you to reality as to how fragile you are; at the same moment you are doing something that nobody else is able to do. The same moment that you are seen as the best, the fastest and somebody that cannot be touched, you are enormously fragile.
When you have a system, you kind of get in a routine of what's important. And then you spend a lot more time on thinking of things that would make it better.
One of my favorite things about doing movies is that you get to do different things you'd never do in real life.
Words do two major things: They provide food for the mind and create light for understanding and awareness.
I think I've always been waiting for things to happen.
You're not the only one who's made mistakes, but they're the only things that you can truly call your own.
In many of the things that people do, they themselves are the centre of attention, but they inscribe some other name on their banner.
I think a British icon is someone who conducts themself with real dignity: someone who is truly talented and modest. These are things that I would aspire to in my career.
I don't believe you can get into somebody's character but more that somebody comes in you. You just use yourself. In everything I play, I feel like it is me. I just say different things on different times and look different.
And I think that still is true of this business - which is basically research and development - that you probably spend more time in planning and training and designing for things to go wrong, and how you cope with them, than you do for things to go right.
Hard things make me happy. You get upset, but you mature and improve: the quicker you reach your best level, the longer you stay there. They say players peak at 28; I wanted to be there at 22, 23.
I believe women should be independent and have their own life. But I also think that when a couple decides to have a family, things change because you need to live in unison.
Effective leadership is putting first things first. Effective management is discipline, carrying it out.
I don't buy the tabloids, but you're surrounded by it all and people tell you things they've read. I'd be sitting on a train looking over someone's shoulder and thinking: That's familiar... oh my God, it's me.
I think that one of the things that drives me in telling stories, and art in general, is finding the beautiful in a big mass of ugly.
When you're in a situation, you can complain about it, you can feel sorry for yourself, you can do a lot of things. But how are you gonna make the situation better?
And I sense it was a rather constructed, almost half narrative fiction film in some ways. A lot of it was staged and manipulated to get those things in there that I knew to be strong.
I know if I were to drop dead now, people would probably write nice things in the obit.
As both a student of history and a man devoted to living in the present, I admit that I do not spend a lot of time imagining how things might otherwise have been. But I do like to think there is a difference between being resigned to a situation and reconciled to it.
There are things so deep and complex that only intuition can reach it in our stage of development as human beings. And to Poe... well, a great logician could be an enemy to him, what he called conventional world reason.
Country music is the people's music. It just speaks about real life and about truth and it tells things how they really are.
One of the luckiest things that can happen to you in life is, I think, to have a happy childhood.
I think things changed as a result of a certain perception of our politics. When we went through our zealous, self-righteous period it didn't exactly win us any friends.
The work that I do with all of my characters is have some sense of where they come from. I kind of create my own story for myself. What's going on with my parents? Are they alive? Or family - do I have children? Do you see those things or not?
Fear has many eyes and can see things underground.
I'm inspired by antiques. I look at things that have a wink to the past but are also reinterpreted in some way and made to feel modern... and maybe that's what I am.
We all fall in love with someone for the person they are - not because of their race, their hair, or any of the frivolous things that go away in time.
The things hardest to bear are sweetest to remember.
At the same time, much of it seems to have to do with recreating things we or others had already done; it seems rather derivative intellectually; is there a dearth of really new ideas?
I like doing a bunch of different things, being all over the place.
If all we remember are good things, then happiness is our baseline, and there's no longer happiness. We need other feelings in order to appreciate others.
