It is possible to be different and still be all right. There can be two - or more - answers to the same question, and all can be right.

You enter a state of controlled passivity, you relax your grip and accept that even if your declared intention is to justify the ways of God to man, you might end up interesting your readers rather more in Satan.
Variety of mere nothings gives more pleasure than uniformity of something.
If someone's going to talk about me, I'd want it to be positively. The way many write, you'd think only bad things were interesting. If we don't think positive, what's the use? It's a lot more fun, you know.
You can find more traditional Shakespeare than we do. But what we want to bring to these works is energy, passion, freshness.
I used to feel that I had to be dictatorial in order to be respected, but after I did a couple of TV movies, I began to see that authority came with the job. So I began to relax and let more people into the process, and my work really improved.
The flattery of posterity is not worth much more than contemporary flattery, which is worth nothing.
Sometimes I'm on a TV set, and I can't feel what I'm supposed to feel as that character because I've not worked my way up to that point.

I was a scared kid... I think I was born a nervous wreck, and I think movies were one way to find a way transferring my own private horrors to everyone else's lives. It was less of an escape and more of an exorcism.
I once read that in vaudeville, it was often the straight guy who got paid more than the comic because that's the tougher job. He has to set up the jokes in just the right way.

I'm trying to find new ways to make this game more attractive.
I think I'm mostly looking forward to the college life. I'm looking forward to more freedom. Here everything is really structured and scheduled, but in college you've got to be more responsible and you can get things done on your own time. I'm really looking forward to that.

I do feel a lot more comfortable when my dog is with me.
I think the dot-com boom and bust represented the end of the beginning. The industry is more mature today.
I'm more in that Rafa Nadal high-energy high-octane mold out there. I wear that emotion on the court. That's how I play my best tennis. People either like that or not. And I can't change that: that's who I am on a tennis court.
Even though I lost my dad in just a tragic, sudden way, there are so many more stories that are so much worse.
Believe me, my children have more stamina than a power station.
