When you finish a poem, it clicks shut like the top of a jewel box, but prose is endless. I haven't experienced an awful lot of clicking shut!
ESPN puts out anything for clicks now, it kind of seems like.
I find an apple before singing really, really helps... It's like there's something in the pectin in the apple that helps get rid of vocal clicks.
Every year in consulting is like three years in the corporate world because you have multiple clients, multiple issues - you grow so much.
You sell a screenplay like you sell a car. If someone drives it off a cliff, that's it.
I sounded like myself. People be saying I sound like Miles or Clifford Brown.
Watching Republicans in Washington is like watching lemmings, if lemmings jumped into cesspools instead of off cliffs.
Musically, I always allow myself to jump off of cliffs. At least that's what it feels like to me. Whether that's what it actually sounds like might depend on what the listener brings to the songs.
A show is like having a climax. It's like having an incredible, natural climax. And then suddenly it's all finished, and you don't know what to do next.
Of all the mountain ranges I have climbed, I like the Sierra Nevada the best.
I feel like I'm on top of the world. Honestly, I feel like I've climbed a very giant mountain, and I'm just standing right on top with my arms wide open and breathing rarified air.
There are three things in life I really don't like: Rice pudding. Social climbers - you know, hang-ons! And the photo shoot!
I just like climbing things and exploring.
Climbs like the Dawn Wall don't come around every day.
Constantly risking absurdity and death whenever he performs above the heads of his audience, the poet, like an acrobat, climbs on rhyme to a high wire of his own making.
Sadly, I can't avoid being 75. Like many people of my age, we are all heading towards the grim reaper, and I am clinging on. I just to have to sharpen my fingernails a little so that I can hang on for longer!
Just that working with Clint again is like coming home.
I did a few movies, but the word 'star'... I cannot compare to a star like Clint Eastwood. I used to call Clint 'Larry Dickman' when he would come to my show; then, he started using the name when he would go under cover in a 'Dirty Harry' movie. That's why he's a movie star... he's so creative.
I'm the first to admit that I like going to, or my memories at least of going to Clint Eastwood movies or Charles Bronson or James Bond.
The life of an action star is very short. I want to be an actor like Robert De Niro, like Dustin Hoffman or Clint Eastwood who in their 70s or 80s can still act.
