I drink for the effect, because it loosens up the tongue a little bit.
But I started it when I was going through a transitional time in my life. At the end of it, it really sort of symbolized it. I had made room to change, and room to grow. I recorded it in a little room.
When I came into office, I could have kicked the can down the road for a little while, or I could do the right thing.
I've got a 1990 Porsche 911. It's just a Carrera, a very simple, straightforward little thing that goes like stink. I love it.
I'm not the kind of person who would throw himself into some exciting or dangerous situation just to get material. So I tend to go about my normal, boring life and just try to look at things a little more closely.
Healing takes courage, and we all have courage, even if we have to dig a little to find it.
All of the little entries in 'The Cows' were written in an irregular way. There might be one or two done one day, and then two weeks might go by or four weeks, and then they were put in an order or sequence.
On the other hand, the artist has much to do in the realm of color construction, which is so little explored and so obscure, and hardly dates back any farther than to the beginning of Impressionism.
I'm a little more measured. That sense of urgency I thought accompanied things - it can take a little longer. You have to take the long view.
I had crashes when I was small and Gumby-like that would have killed me now. I would just fly off jumps and go 40 or 50 meters when I was 6 years old - break skis, smash my goggles and get a bloody nose and go crawl inside for a little while and then come back out and ski more in the afternoon.
I have a magpie mind, by which I mean I see and hear little things - photos, fragments of conversation - and store them away for future use.
I think we need to do a little more all-weather testing.
I don't need to break the speed limit. But if I'm not passing other vehicles on the interstate, I get a little irritated.
'A Little Nightmare Music' is the first show we created. It's about all the nightmares that can happen in the span of a concert. When things go wrong - when the lights go out or a cellphone rings - that's when an audience suddenly comes alive, wondering what's going to happen next. Things going wrong often leads to something good.
I was working straight for nine months and I'm exhausted. I'm ready to relax for a little while and read. I don't want to work for work sake; I have to be excited about it.
I wish over the years I had kept my private life private and my professional life a little more professional.
If a poet is anybody, he is somebody to whom things made matter very little - somebody who is obsessed by Making.
I was ready to get out of the box and play something a little different than what everybody has seen.
Lorna was quite young when her mother died, and I think she's blocked out some of the memories. I talked to her a little bit about that, but I wasn't prepared to go around and poke and hurt her.
I think there is something a little too self conscious about enjoying being an outsider.
I exist as an annexe of the BBC. I'm down the road a bit from the main building, in a little hut.
I think my wife saw a picture of the rock group Journey, and they're kind of aging, and the one guy had dyed blonde hair with black roots, and... my idea was to get a little earring, I wanted to have a dangling earring.
Every performer has a little gem, a little pearl they have done that nobody pays much attention to. And then one day, somebody does recognize it, which is so gratifying.
Eloquence, at its highest pitch, leaves little room for reason or reflection, but addresses itself entirely to the desires and affections, captivating the willing hearers, and subduing their understanding.
Chaos is the natural state, and theater tries to make sense of it, but it's got to be a little messy to be believable.
Culture and tradition have to change little by little. So 'new' means a little twist, a marriage of Japanese technique with French ingredients. My technique. Indian food, Korean food; I put Italian mozzarella cheese with sashimi. I don't think 'new new new.' I'm not a genius. A little twist.
What was the freedom to which the adult human being rose in the morning, if each act was held back or inspired by the overpowering ghost of a little child?
I think doing The Improv is a little more ominous than doing a college campus because it was so different than anything I'd done.
I feel that I have such an abundance in my life, and once you've seen how many people suffer and how little it takes for you to actually change their lives for the better, it's hard not to do something.
This limited theatrical release was a nice little bonus that I never expected.
Southern food certainly carries a stereotype, but I feel like that's turning around a little. There are great Southern chefs who are finding ways to showcase our traditional recipes in deliciously healthy ways. For me, the key is to use fresh fruits and vegetables and cut some of the butter and fat without sacrificing the yumminess of the dish.
I have never had the opportunity to play in England, so I know little about it.
As a producer, I probably am a little stronger than most, since I was a director originally.
I think most paintings are a record of the decisions that the artist made. I just perhaps make them a little clearer than some people have.
I became more confident within myself and matured as a person and become a little bit more opinionated - maybe the lads might say a little bit too opinionated for their liking but that is just a natural progression for a player.
An hour or two spent in writing from dictation, another hour or two in reading aloud, a little geography and a little history and a little physics made the day pass busily.
