When I saw all of the people I have known all these years, when we got together, it was scary because B.B King and I lived in the same place in Nevada.
When I first arrived in Los Angeles I became a little bogged down in the whole success thing. Now I'm at a place in my life and career where I just want to work. It's what I do and it makes me very happy.
I'm not a hockey fan, which is probably why I had to leave Canada in the first place.
There's a certain nostalgia and romance in a place you left.
I used to paint landscapes without any people in them but now I paint people who happen to be in a particular place. They might be outside a pub, or on a beach or in a studio. They might have clothes on or they might not.
I suppose the place where I live is fairly remote, it would seem remote to some people.
Get place and wealth, if possible with grace; if not, by any means get wealth and place.
I'm trying to avail myself of the various technologies to get the message that Washington needs to be cleaned up, that the system that's in place is not what's beneficial in the country.
For the larger interest of humanity, Islamic society presents the safest place on this planet.
Knowledge about life is one thing; effective occupation of a place in life, with its dynamic currents passing through your being, is another.
I like doing a bunch of different things, being all over the place.
It's far from clear that restoring Christian social authority is an appropriate aim of politics in the first place.
I sometimes think that so much of our life takes place inside our heads - in memory or imagination or interpretation or speculation - that if I really want to change my life, I might best begin by changing my mind.
If you stay in one place, you can only rap about one thing because that's all you know.
Work place romances always seem to get very confused and peculiar, in my experience.
If you're lucky like me, your relationship with your brother has resolved itself on the peaceful side of the fence and has stayed there. But if you're someone who's got a family that's all fractured and finding it hard to relate, that's a very sad place to be.
We would be driving down the street in a place like Zaire, now the Democratic Republic of Congo, and started to see, my gosh, the only people that have shoes are men. Why does that woman have a baby in her belly and one on her back, and she's carrying a huge load of bananas? You start to ask these questions.
Obviously, movies, you're often on location, out in the rain or the sun, in a real place where the trees and the cars are real. But when you're on stage, as an actor you're imagining the environment that you're in.
The attributes we're focused on for Mickey are exactly the ones Walt had in mind in the first place. The original Mickey was impish and irreverent. Walt sanitized him because when Mickey got so popular, there was a fear that his behavior was influencing kids.
If you put out quality music, you're always going to be in a good place.
Men's memoirs are about answers; women's memoirs are about questions. Most male authors want to look good in their memoirs and have a place in posterity, while most women know that posterity is what happens when you no longer care. Women want to connect with others here and now; they couldn't care less about legacy!
I once tried standing up on my toes to see far out in the distance, but I found that I could see much farther by climbing to a high place.
If you're writing a book that takes place in New York in the moment, you can't not write about 9-11; you can't not integrate it. My main character's view is the Statue of Liberty and the Trade Center. It doesn't have to take over, but it has to be acknowledged.
New Hampshire is one of the birthplaces of American freedom and independence - a place with a love and a passion for liberty.
The short story is an imploding universe. It has all the boil of energy inside it. A novel has shrapnel going all over the place. You can have a mistake in a novel. A short story has to be perfect.
If you're going to be that kind of actor and go way out there, it's really important to take care of yourself and have a safe place, whatever that is.
My views as an individual ought not to be confused with my views as a scientist - the minute you try to mingle God and science, you get into trouble. Metaphysics has its place, and science has its place; don't mix the two.
I'd auditioned for the National Youth Theatre and I didn't get a place and it was terrifying.
America is simultaneously the most attractive and most repulsive place on the planet. It is most loved and most hated.
What is the most innocent place in any country? Is it not the insane asylum? These people drift through life truly innocent, unable to see into themselves at all.
Silicon Valley is a great place for Bitcoin, since everyone understands computers, and there are lots of libertarians running around.
There are all these languages that keep people in place that conform us to a set of terms. It's why I think the whole idea of identity as something that is something of a straitjacket. That most of us like to think of as natural and innate. That we just find and go, 'Yeah, that's who I am.'
There are a handful of barbecue seafood shacks on the beach at Hat Nai Yang, which is a fabulous place to have dinner. It's very much run for locals and they serve the catch of the day, which might be lobster, white snapper or squid. It's ridiculously reasonable, too.
I did plays and movies and whatever all over the place.
There will always be a place for us somewhere, somehow, as long as we see to it that working people fight for everything they have, everything they hope to get, for dignity, equality, democracy, to oppose war and to bring to the world a better life.
The school made it very clear that women were entitled to positions of authority. That sense of entitlement allowed us to feel that we have a natural place in leadership in the world. That gave me a mental and emotional confidence.
