I try to change my physical appearance for every role.
A little prosperity and peace, or even a turn slightly for the better, can bring us feelings of self-sufficiency.

When I was first approached about doing an autobiography, I said, 'absolutely not.' But when I sat down, memories came pouring out.

It was a very intense writing period and took a year and change to finish.
I sort of feel that climate change will be solved by science. I just feel instinctively that we will find a way of saving ourselves. But I am less confident that we won't destroy ourselves in other ways.

Of course there are many ways we can reuse something. We can dye it. We can cut it. We can change the buttons. Those are other ways to make it alive. But this is a new step to use anything - hats, socks, shirts. It's the first step in the process.
It is not necessary to change. Survival is not mandatory.

The abortion industry can try to improve its 'messaging' all it wants. But unless abortion advocates change their devotion to abortion-on-demand, the only message Americans will receive is that the abortion industry is only really interested in improving its bottom line at the expense of the most defenseless among us.

I don't believe in any particular definition of the afterlife, but I do believe we're spiritual creatures and more than our biology and that energy cannot be destroyed, but can change. I don't know what the afterlife is going to be, but I'm not afraid of it.

I always wanted to get into rock music so I could cover up my real personality, change my voice, and create a false self to hide behind.
Science fiction is any idea that occurs in the head and doesn't exist yet, but soon will, and will change everything for everybody, and nothing will ever be the same again. As soon as you have an idea that changes some small part of the world you are writing science fiction. It is always the art of the possible, never the impossible.
I think the whole thing, boy band, it's a little bit of a dirty word. They say it's not a good thing to be in a boy band. We want to change that. We want to make the boy band cool. It's not just about dancing and dressing the same.
Neighborhoods change. In some ways, it's part of the beauty of New York City. It's in a constant state of flux.
Seasonal change in Los Angeles is often a very subtle thing. It's not as if we finally stop having to shovel the snow out of our driveways and can put our parkas back in the closet.

We have to know that life cannot be changed by us. It will be changed. But not by us. We can only guide the things that can cause physical change.
I'm confident in who I am. I've come to a place in my life where I've accepted things that are me, as opposed to feeling pressure to explain myself to people around me. That's just the way I've always tried to be. It didn't change when I became a star.
I like loud snare, and I like really treble-y guitars, and that's just never going to change.
