I only work once or twice a year for about a month, so I have a lot of free time. But I'm good at being alone, which helps.
I love spending time with my friends and family. The simplest things in life give me the most pleasure: cooking a good meal, enjoying my friends.
I'm a religious, spiritual person, but if there is good in the world, there must be evil, too.
Here is a pretty good rule of thumb for Democratic Presidents: if it didn't work for Franklin D. Roosevelt, who won four terms and a World War, it probably won't work for you either.
Having received the Spirit of Christ to know good from evil, we should always choose the good.
There's an amazing documentary, 'The Day After Trinity,' which is crazy good.
After all these years, I still get nervous in front of people. I can't help it. I just, you know, I want it to be a good show, and I want people to get their money's worth.
I believe in clean skin and using a good cleanser, toner, and moisturiser.
If things are not so good, you may be one to imagine something better. For me, I was able to imagine myself as in a role of greater importance than I would seem to be ordinarily.
The children who are 'our future' will inherit a world created not just by parental devotion but by the sort of zealous, focused endeavors that can preclude good parenting.
It's hard not to take it personally when being wait-listed, passed over for a promotion, or losing a client to a competitor. But while feeling aggrieved may be an understandable reaction, it's not productive - it's not a good use of the experience.
Hamp would ask me about tempos in the band: 'Jacquet,' he'd say, 'knock off that tempo.' A lot of jazz musicians didn't prefer to play for dancers, which was their loss, really. But good jazz has always had that dance feel.
I don't keep a journal anymore. I did when I was younger, and I think its good for young girls to try and express what they are feeling on paper; it's cathartic.
I do cook a lot for myself. I tend to cook from scratch, a lot of stews and things, lots of beans, because beans have got lots of protein in them but not fat. I am partial to a bit of cheese - I try to limit myself in my cheese intake, but I do enjoy a good smelly cheese. Stinking Bishop is a good one.
I loved 'Dungeons & Dragons'. That was actually a good cartoon to me.
Y'know, every relationship is different. There are good marriages, bad marriages, connected partners, unconnected partners.
I won't call my work entertainment. It's exploring. It's asking questions of people, constantly. 'How much do you feel? How much do you know? Are you aware of this? Can you cope with this?' A good movie will ask you questions you don't already know the answers to. Why would I want to make a film about something I already understand?
In terms of the espionage, this is something I have talked to President Obama about. We don't want it to mar the relationship between Mexico and the United States. But it is unacceptable for a country to practice such espionage, especially if there is a good relationship with the other country.
I was watching the last season of 'Mad Men,' and they're now so in their characters and they're so comfortable in their characters, and they're doing such good work. That can only happen from doing it over and over, and developing a character over seven years.
I started running around my 30th birthday. I wanted to lose weight; I didn't anticipate the serenity. Being in motion, suddenly my body was busy and so my head could work out some issues I had swept under a carpet of wine and cheese. Good therapy, that's a good run.
I want to keep meeting new people, enlarging my circle of friends. I have great friends now... really good people. But I'm always ready for what comes next.
I don't think the elite class is only speaking the good English.
Anyone who has ever asked for directions knows you need two crucial pieces of information to get good results: a starting point and a destination.
The Obama administration's zeal to not 'waste a good crisis,' as Secretary of State Hillary Clinton put it, has been stunning even for Washington insiders to behold.
The greater good is achieved by not only telling people what they need to know, but also filling them with a sense of empathy and love.
Once in a while I'll order an omelet, 'cause I'm not very good at making omelets.
I'm going to obviously do my best as a father to set a good example for my children, and I want them to see good examples from our leaders.
I think that it's important to have good people around you, like my friends.
What I would say to anybody facing any life challenge or disease is that that is courage - to choose life, to keep looking at what's good.
Good art in general aspires to something, as a good painting aspires to something, almost spiritual or holy.
Some countries have good laws, laws which could stem the tide of HIV. The problem is that these laws are flouted. Because stigma gives unofficial license to treat people living with HIV or those at greatest risk unlike other citizens.
I think in politics, in Congress, you often do things that are Republican, or you do things because you're a Democrat. Sometimes that's good, obviously, and sometimes that's obviously bad. But in the news business, there's no such thing as Republican or Democratic news. News is news.
For an artist, a good place to be is you have some kind of influence and power to get things done, but in your essence you remain a nomad or a soldier facing a difficulty to be overcome.
We're in a long line of English people pretending to be Americans and not being as good as Americans.
I think all good short stories are about what it means to tell a good story.
If you want to be a good blues singer, people are going to be down on you, so dress like you're going to the bank to borrow money.
