I'm no different than others with cancer. I just happen to play professional baseball. I'm part of those statistics that cancer has touched as well.
We do a hard fantasy as well as hard science fiction, and I think I probably single-handedly recreated military science fiction. It was dead before I started working in it.

One of my mottos not only just in skating but in life in general and I try to enforce it as well, is like no regrets and just like going for it.
Reading and writing, like everything else, improve with practice. And, of course, if there are no young readers and writers, there will shortly be no older ones. Literacy will be dead, and democracy - which many believe goes hand in hand with it - will be dead as well.
There are laws for peace as well as war.
It is always well to accept your own shortcomings with candor but to regard those of your friends with polite incredulity.
There comes a moment during a job interview when you're still talking, but you might as well take off your shoes.
My parents are really well intended, and I think their way of dealing with things is denial and guilt. Nobody wanted to talk about it. But all I did was blame myself.
To speak and to speak well, are two things. A fool may talk, but a wise man speaks.
Should you be so unfortunate as to suppose you are a genius, and that 'things will come to you,' it would be well to undeceive yourself as soon as possible. Make up your mind that industry must be the price of all you obtain, and at once begin to pay down.
The key is, if you're not monkeying around with the script, then everything usually goes pretty well.
However, intention needn't enter in, and if a reader sees things in a religious way, and the work is dogmatically acceptable, then I don't see why it should not be interpreted in that way, as well as in others.
Well it is certainly the case that the poems - which were in fact published during Shakespeare's lifetime - are weird if they began or originated in this form, as I think they did, because the poems get out of control.

Anytime I go on Twitter, there's always the good but the bad as well.
Instead of fearing the unknown - all the bad that can happen - realize that good things can surprise you as well.
I think my friend Tom Hanks knows me. He understands me very well. He's always had a sort of parental feeling toward me. He knows I'm a big mush ball, which is just part of my personality.

Then I got the offer to play Buck Rogers, but I turned it down thinking it was a cartoon character. Well I was wrong, it wasn't at all. So I read the script and decided I liked the character, it had a good concept.

And I think people who sort of glibly say, 'Well, you know, they're not going to handle security, UAE is a great ally,' four and a half years ago, they were not an ally, they were working with the enemy, and if those same people are still there today that were there then, these are real serious issues.
I care so passionately about improving the quality of life for women and girls, not just here in the United States, but internationally as well. I am a single mom and I raised a daughter who is now a young adult.
Any man may be in good spirits and good temper when he's well dressed. There ain't much credit in that.
I don't do nonfiction anymore. Eventually, you just feel constrained by the facts. You want to go where the words take you, and people's actual lives don't always conform. And you can't know them that well.
I've done teaching and things like that because if you're acting, you're becoming other human beings, and you need to have time to find who you are as well.
