What I'm not confused about is the world needing much more love no hate no prejudice no bigotry and more unity peace and understanding. Period.

I think there's not much patience for organized labour period public or private sector.

My relationship with the Philharmonia Orchestra brought me many times to London and I will always reflect positively on that early period of development with them - their patience their warmth their dedication.

It's been a transformative period and I really wanted to make music from what I've experienced.

There's a constantly applicable nature to soul music whereas sometimes pop music can be a periodical.

I don't like doing movies period. Movies are hard. I like TV.

I think people like to see the lives of artists that are legends. They always go through the dark periods and I think just as humans we like to see that and them coming out of it. I love those kinds of movies.

I mean I kind of remember... I'm 36 now so it's kind of hard for me to relate to what it was like when I was 25 or 24 but I do remember a period in time when that's how I defined who I was by the music I listened to and the movies I went to.

But then I go through long periods where I don't listen to things usually when I'm working. In between the records and in between the writing I suck up books and music and movies and anything I can find.

I really don't have favorites I'm just a fan of movies period.

I am focused on what needs to be done for the people of Israel. Period. I do not pity myself and I do not pat myself on the shoulder. I get up in the morning full of energy to fulfill my mission.

My mother smokes me out. We'll get these long periods of me thinking I'm too busy to call her up or e-mail her and she'll send me something. My mom's a real whiner. I love her to death but she always sends me these 'woe is me' things. I think she might be Jewish. I'm not sure. She's Baptist-Jewish which is a double whammy.

I went through a long period of time in that marriage when I didn't believe anything was my fault. I had to face what my part was and only because of that difficult work was I able to trust a man again.

Marriage is hard work period.

The critical period of matrimony is breakfast-time.
