So I've done my fair share of theater. I have also been very fortunate in that I've been able to come to New York two or three times a year just to see as many shows as possible. I think the live theater culture here is incredible.
The dream as an actor is being able to bounce back and forth between different things.
It's really good to be able to think about past loves without having a pit in my stomach, or cringing or feeling heart-broken, or like they hate you. Don't you think?
If there are healthy - and growing - numbers of people working and paying taxes, we are better able to pay the costs of people living longer.
There is something magical about that green coat. I mean that sincerely. It's a very special week, and being able to wear that green jacket. It's made my whole career. It's special.
You may not seem able to change some outer circumstances but you can start by changing your inner experience of life and yourself.
As a child, I was able to know that I wanted a better life.
Reading is something I've really missed, not being able to enter people's worlds.
I'm a big believer in everybody being themselves. If not doing a swimsuit calendar is yourself, that's great. But if doing a swimsuit calendar is yourself, then you should be able to do it. What I do outside the car adds to who I am and expresses a different side of me.
I always wanted to be a stuntman. If acting went well and I was able to take a year out, I might train and get on the stunt register, which gives you qualifications so you can do more of your own stunts.
I have been acting for 32 years now and I feel so lucky to be able to have done exactly what I wanted to do.
I've definitely had times in my life where I've been depressed and not able to do anything at all.
One day, people in China may be able to see the records of conversations between multinational tech companies and the Chinese authorities.
It is, therefore, a fact that anybody who wants to realise Truth or who wants to be humane, must follow non-violent ways of life, otherwise he will not be able to reach the Truth.
We all do role-play. Sometimes behind the camera, and sometimes in front of it. I am the few lucky ones who have been able to wear both hats and especially have been able to romance the camera in a believable way, and I hope that this romance between us never ends.
When I retire or pass away, I will be able to look back and say that this has been an exciting life. That's all that matters.
Writers have to have a knack for listening. I need to be able to hear what is being said to me by the voices I create.
You gotta be able to change worlds.
I always saw pollution as theft, and I always thought, 'Why should somebody be able to pollute the air, which belongs to all of us, or destroy a river or a waterway, which is supposed to belong to the whole community?'
When you use words, you're able to keep your mind alive. Writing is my way of reaffirming my own existence.
I don't think anybody has ever been able to live up to what they promised. I don't know a government that has ever been successful at that because once they get into power, things change and the world is controlled also by business now.
Without the aid of prejudice and custom, I should not be able to find my way across the room.
I think that everyone should be able to dribble. Everyone should be able to pass. Otherwise, why are you out there?
If I start going back to church, I'd have to stop the smoking and drinking, and I wouldn't be able to curse any more.
Maybe if I'd not been able to kick a ball it would have been different, but I doubt it because all my mates are decent blokes now, just normal fellas with families.
Ann Demeulemeester is an adult brand now, with its own identity and legacy that is able to continue growing without me.
It's really fun to just get on a bike and just go and, I guess in a way, to be able to leave the tour and not be confined and all that kind of stuff.
I think people tend to see the bigger point, which is maybe not fitting in and feeling like you didn't have the childhood that you expected you would have, or that you felt lonely or struggled with drugs and alcohol or just that you were able to achieve your dreams.
People ask me if I am going to write my memoirs. But even if I wanted to, I would not be able. I have extremely few memories.
I've always been a fan of movies well before I got involved in the industry. The magic that it brings and being able to, I guess, escape your troubles, escape whatever is going on in life and getting to live in this moment and in the story and live in the lives of these characters.
The developing countries must be able to take a more active part in trade negotiations, through technical assistance and support from the developed countries.
My knee feels good right now. I am definitely able to move about whichever way.
I'm a singer and as long as I can sing - which, thank God, is something that I still seem to be able to do - I'd like to carry on making records.
I write for young people because I like them and because I think they are important. Children's books can be mind-stretchers and imagination-ticklers and builders of good taste in a way that adult books cannot, because young people usually come to books with more open minds. It's exciting to be able to contribute to that in a small way.
In the past 3-4 years I've developed a habit of keeping numerous small cassette recorders in my house and in a bag with me so that I'm able to commit to tape memory song ideas on a constant basis.
Look for what's missing. Many advisors can tell a President how to improve what's proposed or what's gone amiss. Few are able to see what isn't there.
