I thought Twitter was a joke. I really thought it was a gag. I thought it was like National Lampoon or the Onion.
I don't like sweet, warm beverages. It makes me gag!
I love Lady Gaga. When I was in high school, I really wanted to dress like her.
I really like Lady GaGa and everything she is for her fans.
I like Kylie Minogue sometimes - I like a lot of unusual stuff... I don't know - I like Justin Timberlake over Lady Gaga, just musically.
Between '06 and '09, I dealt with pain by eating. And I was like, 'Oh, crap, eating makes you gain weight!'
I have a Missouri Fox Trotter. So mine's like a quarter horse, but just a much better gait - it moves very fast.
Our incomes should be like our shoes; if too small, they will gall and pinch us; but if too large, they will cause us to stumble and to trip.
It wasn't until I started to read short stories - by people like Alice Munro, Mavis Gallant, John Updike... Eudora Welty - that I became excited about the possibilities of writing.
Art suggests stuff that is traded like money, that is kept in galleries and that belongs to the elite, whereas experience is something that everybody has in the course of living.
I've always liked artists like Chris Burden, who would take performances, put them in galleries, and then do things that were on the edge.
I don't like books that play to the gallery, but I've become more concerned with telling a story as clearly and engagingly as I can.
'Barracuda' is very fun to play because it's like a galloping steed of a rock song.
I'm urging NASA to foster the development of what I call 'runway landers.' No, that's not the name of a high stakes gambler from Vegas. It's a type of spacecraft that flies to orbit like the retiring Shuttles but then glides to a landing like an airplane on a runway. Just like the Shuttles do.
'Short Term 12' was such a marathon. It's like trying to convey the same emotional depth as 'The Gambler' but with less time and a fingernail's worth of the budget.
I'm not a big gambler anymore. I like to do it. I enjoy it instead of trying to make money off of it, because I realized you can't make money gambling.
There is no gambling like politics.
Never in a million years did I think 'Game of Thrones' was going to take off like it did.
The approach of 'Game of Thrones' is similar to 'The Lord of the Rings' in that it treats its source material almost like history, and it focuses as much on the human drama as it does on anything fantastical.
After 'Game of Thrones,' having a character like that, that's like the pinnacle of your career.
