I read and walked for miles at night along the beach writing bad blank verse and searching endlessly for someone wonderful who would step out of the darkness and change my life. It never crossed my mind that that person could be me.

Have you heard about the Irishman who reversed into a car boot sale and sold the engine?

Consider the perverse effect cap and trade has on altruistic actions. Say you decide to buy a small high-efficiency car. That reduces your emissions but not your country's. Instead it allows somebody else to buy a bigger S.U.V. - because the total emissions are set by the cap.

You have to wait six months to purchase a fuel efficient automobile made from overseas.

I'll keep on acting 'til they wipe the drool. I like the business. I like to do different parts and diverse characters. I haven't lost my enthusiasm yet!

I want to put a ding in the universe.

Most of those who make collections of verse or epigram are like men eating cherries or oysters: they choose out the best at first and end by eating all.

There is only one thing for us to do and that is to do our level best right where we are every day of our lives To use our best judgment and then to trust the rest to that Power which holds the forces of the universe in his hands.

I am just absolutely convinced that the best formula for giving us peace and preserving the American way of life is freedom limited government and minding our own business overseas.

For most people we often marvel at the beauty of a sunrise or the magnificence of a full moon but it is impossible to fathom the magnitude of the universe that surrounds us.

I just want to continue to break barriers and to show the industry and the world that beauty is diverse and you don't have to be a certain stereotype to be beautiful.

Los Angeles is like a beauty parlor at the end of the universe.

Solitude gives birth to the original in us to beauty unfamiliar and perilous - to poetry. But also it gives birth to the opposite: to the perverse the illicit the absurd.

Most sets of values would give rise to universes that although they might be very beautiful would contain no one able to wonder at that beauty.

What has happened is that to some degree they have taken an attitude where they don't listen to demos of diverse subject matters. They're looking for demos like the record the guy on the left just did.

I'm very manipulative towards directors. My theory is that everyone on the set is directing the film we're all receiving art messages from the universe on how we should do the film.

I love art dealers. In some ways they're my favorite people in the art world. Really. I love that they put their money where their taste is create their own aesthetic universes support artists employ people and do all of this while letting us see art for free. Many are visionaries.
