I'd like Muslims to look at their religion as a set of beliefs that they can appraise critically and pick and choose from.
You only appreciate what it feels like to win the Champions League after you've seen it snatched away from you.
I feel like Sony appreciates good music from a talented artist.
Again, like I said, my life has been about being fascinated by objects and the stories that they tell, and also making them for myself, obtaining them, appreciating them and diving into them.
Like Christ said, love thee one another. I learned to do that, and I learned to respect and be appreciative and thankful for what I had.
Throughout 'Doris,' and while I was recording it, you could hear I was apprehensive towards everything. I can't explain it. It wasn't fun; it was like I had to do it.
I moved to New York first and was really apprehensive about moving to L.A., but I really, really like it.
Sometimes I feel like I'm a contestant in a reality show that probably would be called The Apprentice Survivor Millionaire.
When I first started working, I was very aware of the fact that I'd been to university and studied Russian and French and not acting. So when I started working, I'd started working quite young, I felt like it was important to treat myself kind of like an apprentice and do as many different types of things as I could.
That process by which you become a writer is a pretty lonely one. We don't have a group apprenticeship like a violinist might training for an orchestra.
Most people won't realize that writing is a craft. You have to take your apprenticeship in it like anything else.
Personally, I'd like to see more of our leaders take a technocratic approach to solving our biggest problems.
I like approbation. Any actor who tells you they don't is lying.
Obama hasn't lost his standing because of tricks played by the Republicans. He hasn't lost his standing because the media's not fair to him. He hasn't lost his standing or his approval number because the media spent four years attacking him like they did George W. Bush. This is all on him.
NASA has to approve whatever we wear, so there are clothes to choose from, like space shorts - we wear those a lot - and NASA T-shirts.
I have smuggled so many ingredients across so many borders, like shallot confit from Thailand, or a new sauce from New Orleans not approved by the FDA.
How quick come the reasons for approving what we like!
Simperium seems like a genuine utility for our own apps, and for other people as a service. And Simplenote, as a product, I love, and it's just darn handy.
Oh, 1994, April 27. There won't be a day like that ever again. I mean, the sky was blue, with a blueness that had never been there before.
I like to help kids, work with kids in detention homes. Don't tell a kid what's right and wrong. He knows what's right and wrong. Find out what his attitude and his aptitude are; try to help him where he wants to go.
