I've been doing lots of trapeze, and so much of it is holding your own weight.
There's something incredibly primal about facing something treacherous but doing it anyway.
Doing drag in a male-dominant culture is an act of treason. It's the most punk-rock thing you can do.
No one is going to stick their head out of the trenches for someone they don't respect or trust. You can get shot doing that.
I spent a lot of time in the trenches in New York doing a lot of off-off-off Broadway theater.
I don't think there were great beauty trends in the '90s - I was just doing my own thing.
We all approached doing a sequel with great trepidation and skepticism.
I was doing chemistry in Research Triangle Park in North Carolina. It was the first time I'd lived alone, and I had an epiphany while I was spending a lot of time watching TV and decided I wanted try acting.
Listen, I'm 41 years old. I've got two kids. I've got a career. The last thing I need to be doing is having a beef with A Tribe Called Quest. It's silly and it was unnecessary. It ain't the first time that a director hasn't seen eye to eye with a subject and it ain't going to be the last time.
Life is pretty simple: You do some stuff. Most fails. Some works. You do more of what works. If it works big, others quickly copy it. Then you do something else. The trick is the doing something else.
If you're 25, I could see how you could be tricked into thinking 'Benji' is my most successful record, but I've been doing this long before online magazines existed.
When I was young, I used to wear a lot of wigs, and I was running on stage at a gig and tripped over and it fell off. It was in the 1970s, and Swansea were doing really well in the league, and most of the team were there. I almost died, but I picked it up, put it back on my head and carried on.
I worked as a truck driver, carpenter's assistant, doing whatever it took to keep bread on the table for the family.
A true artist is one who, even after doing a lot, he reminds himself that he hasn't done anything.
Film and theater are about misdirection and making the audience see something. I find it interesting. One of the things we do in 'True Blood' is shoot all of our stunts in camera. Instead of doing some kind of visual effect, we try to make it happen.
If I write scripts that nobody likes, I don't think we'll be doing 'True Detective.'
It's hard when you're doing a film based on a true story to really figure out what all those relationships were.
I have a ladybug on my wrist that I got when I was doing 'John Tucker Must Die,' and I have a tattoo on my ankle that's in Sanskrit that says 'Fearless.'
Back in the early days of WWE, I remember doing 20 interviews every Tuesday, one right after the other on different topics.
I didn't realize until I was doing commentary what a gladiator-like competition tennis is - other than no one dies. The crowd is waiting for the players to come, and they walk through the tunnel, and they get on the court, and they get out their rackets, their weapons, and now they start.
