I can get away with saying a lot of ideas that are young and naive. I'm liberated.
I have a lot of very close girlfriends and sisters - I'm from an all female family. My father often quips that even the cat was neutered!
I think that, just in general, my number one priority is to just go out of your way to stay yourself and put yourself out there in a positive way. It's so easy, and you can connect with a lot of your friends.
A lot of people say I seem masculine, but I don't feel it. I feel intrinsically feminine. I'd love to be one of the boys but I always felt a bit on the outside. Maybe my masculine qualities come from overcompensating because I'm not one of the boys.
I think the best thing about being James Brown is looking at my little son. Hopefully I can make my son a role model to a lot of people.
I kind of missed out on those years when a lot of my friends did big backpacking trips around Europe and that sort of thing. So to be able to travel and see parts of the world on the job is kind of a double whammy.
We're paying a lot of attention to the iPad. But we're expanding that to a tablet focus.
But these days, I get a lot more attention and airplay from the Adult Contemporary and country radio stations, and I feel comfortable saying I'm a part of that.
It's good to do things slow in the bush. It makes you appreciate everything a lot more.
My best tennis at my peak was when I played a lot of matches.
The thing you can't let go of is gravity. The reality of gravity in writing. If someone says something really mean in a sitcom, and the next wave isn't a reaction to the reality of that, you start losing relatability. In a lot of romantic comedies, they throw out the rules of life.
Sometimes you're inspired by an old-school song that you want to chop up and make a sample out of it. I find that with a lot of older Motown music.
I think that a lot of players and a lot of teams don't think of contact lenses as being a part of that essential gear but it truly is. You want every competitive advantage you can find and obviously having great vision is one of those advantages.
My music is pretty versatile; I have a lot of genres and styles. I don't think I should be pigeonholed into one thing. So we'll see where my career goes.
I have a lot of respect for tough coaches.
The great thing about McDonald's is that they have a lot of different things on the menu. I love their salads.
I think I'm the best fit for characters that have a lot going on inside.
I run around, I listen to a lot of music, go to a lot of concerts. And when I see someone that gases me, I try to go out of my way to involve them somehow in what I'm doing or get involved in what they're doing.
I remember having a lot of Josh White albums. Johnny Cash. Elvis. I loved the Coasters.
A lot of cultures believe you take the placenta and you bury it and plant something.
I bought a house in LA, hanging out there and spending a lot of time in Toronto, but not much.
It's very important to me that people accept me as a transgendered female. But it's ridiculous to a lot of people and I understand that.
I didn't have a whole lot of role models to say, 'This much is possible, versus this much.' So I finally said, 'I think I'd like to be a mayor. I'd like to pull together a city and help do good things.'
I don't have a lot of clothes or a lot of possessions to bog me down.
Young adults love to play games and they're thirsty for social interaction, but a lot of bar and restaurant experiences are quite unsatisfactory on the social level. What young people need is a place that has the feel of an unhosted party where they find themselves interacting with like-minded strangers.
I never had to learn English, French and German because I was brought up as all three languages. I had a private French teacher before I even went to school. That helped a lot.
A lot of straight people think I'm nuts.
I wrote a lot in study hall to while away the hours.
I don't want to lie. I dislike dishonesty. And I work in Hollywood, a town and a business that relies on a lot of falsehoods with people hiding behind different facades. I don't want to be a part of that.
Guilt is a weird thing to me. I don't have a lot of it.
If I don't get paid I'm going to take a whole lot of Marshall amps home with me on the plane.
A lot of people don't get it, but I design from the inside out so that the finished product looks inevitable somehow. I think it's important to create spaces that people like to be in, that are humanistic.
After Leaving Las Vegas I did assume that things would get a lot easier than they've been. But it's just been a mirror of the way my career's been from the beginning, so for it to have changed would have been strange. My career has never been perfect.
My main source of reading is scripts, which doesn't leave a whole lot of room for books.
We've made some good beginnings with the New START Treaty, but a lot more can be done.
In all the years that I've been in football - I went directly from coaching to broadcasting - I never really had a lot of experience watching it.
