But, you know, you can't be a star at home.
Too many actors have run for office. There's one difference between me and them: I know I'm not qualified.
The public is like a piano. You just have to know what keys to poke.
At 30 a man should know himself like the palm of his hand, know the exact number of his defects and qualities, know how far he can go, foretell his failures - be what he is. And, above all, accept these things.
I don't know how you can go your whole life and not listen once to Bob Marley - what's the point?
I try not to think of myself in any category, and I don't ever really try to imagine myself competing with another actor. I just know I want to do the things that I would want to see, and I know the things that turn me on, whether it's on the stage, or it's a play or a film. I just kind of want to keep doing my own thing.
You know you're old if your walker has an airbag.
I feel very meditative when I ride. A horse does not know whether my movie is a hit or a flop or what is happening in my relationship.
I was 25 myself once. I also thought I knew everything. I also thought that I could give singers singing advice and comics comedy advice. When you're that age, you know it all, so I understand it. But when you're tired and you don't have patience for it, you definitely snap.
People who know how much they're worth aren't usually worth that much.
It just broke my heart, and I had to get away from it. I love them to death, but they know how bad it got. It's not their fault, but I couldn't do that any longer.
Before I start directing a show, I try to spend a few weeks hanging around the set, getting to know the crew and talking to the actors about how they like to work. Who is fussy? Who is left-handed? Who wants to go home early, and who is the perfectionist?
Teaching is the only major occupation of man for which we have not yet developed tools that make an average person capable of competence and performance. In teaching we rely on the 'naturals', the ones who somehow know how to teach.
I don't know whether war is an interlude during peace, or peace an interlude during war.
There were times when there were parts that I was sure I got and then I didn't, and I did get upset. But at this point, it doesn't affect me in the least because I know how the business works.
You look at Gone With the Wind, how right Vivian Leigh was for that. Don't know if that would happen today.
The biggest surprise, which is also the best, is that I didn't know I would love motherhood as much as I do.
It's nice to know you have support. Last night I got a marriage proposal. I just laughed.
To himself everyone is immortal; he may know that he is going to die, but he can never know that he is dead.
I love the art of acting, and I love film, because you always have another chance if you want it. You know, if we - if this isn't going well, you can't say - well, you could say - let's stop. Let's start over again, Gene, because you were too nervous.
I think men are afraid to be with a successful woman, because we are terribly strong, we know what we want and we are not fragile enough.
Sitting down to eat in our house is about sharing, you know, talking about the day you've had, be it in school or work or whatever, so that's very important to us.
I didn't know I was gonna act. I thought I was gonna be a singer because that's what I did first, and I was like, 'When I grow up, I want to be, you know, a singer.'
I am obsessed with planning travel! Not just traveling, which I love, but the whole planning process and all the details that go into it. I subscribe to all these travel blogs and airline forums and research hotels and activities and destinations for hours on end, and I volunteer to plan trips for everyone I know.
I have already seen death, and I know that death is supporting me in my cause of education. Death does not want to kill me.
I've always been interested in the news, but I've always been interested in what's popular. I've always had a little bit of a populist take on things. Which I know is interesting when you talk about Donald Trump.
I pay less attention to my hair then probably anybody that I know. I get out of the shower, I towel dry it. I, like, blow it off and then I just run my hands through it and away we go. It's just what it is.
He who says he hates every kind of flattery, and says it in earnest, certainly does not yet know every kind of flattery.
I just know so many people who have six or seven foreign languages and have read everything and have musical training and they are still dorks.
As far as pacing the shoot is concerned, I know when I've got it. I don't think there's any reason to take ten takes unless you need them.
I don't know anything about music. In my line you don't have to.
I didn't know how to deal with success. If there was a Rock Star 101, I would have liked to take it. It might have helped me.
And in nineteen seventy two I almost wasn't, on the team, but I knew about it just before Olympic Games for three months before this why this is was not very good for me. I'd been ready to go, you know.
I get nervous when I don't get nervous. If I'm nervous I know I'm going to have a good show.
Humor helps ease the tension of race and the differences in society. If there wasn't comedy I don't know if Obama could have ever become president.
But did I think it would last more than 13 episodes at the time? No, I didn't think that. I never know.
