'Chappelle's Show' was like the Tupac of TV shows. It came out, it got everybody's attention, it was a bright shining star, but it burned out, and for some strange reason, it burned out quick.
I only like people to know what I want them to know. People didn't know what Tupac was doing. That's why he was so iconic.
The techniques I developed for studying turbulence, like weather, also apply to the stock market.
The military lead turbulent lives, but they are people like everybody else.
From the outside, Yahoo was extremely successful. It was making money; it was still bigger than Google. But when I got there, I learned what a disaster of a company looks like from the inside. There were a lot of vice presidents, and it was basically a turf battle between them.
The reason people like the Young Turks is because we say things you're not allowed to say in Washington that are obviously true.
Every time I shoot a turnaround, I feel like nobody can block it.
Try to be like the turtle - at ease in your own shell.
I'm like an old turtle these days. I don't run wide-open everywhere, but at the end of the day, I'll be where I'm supposed to be.
Prison is no hardship, really. I'm in the art room as an assistant to the tutor, and basically, I'm doing what I like.
Earlier, the notion was such that TV actors are overexposed and that they can't do films, but now it's not like that.
Because in both TV and film every story under the sun is being told, and so music shouldn't be restricted to have to follow, like, the John Williams template or something. I love John Williams, but that sound doesn't suit every story.
One thing I really want to do is - I spent ten years in New York doing theater before I moved to L.A. to do TV and film. I'd really like to go to back New York and do some theater.
I really feel like the proper representation of women, in TV and film, is really important and vital.
I hear a lot of bad TV commercials that try to sound like Where It's At. That pretty much turned me off from using the electric piano for a lot of years.
American TV news is much more sophisticated. I think that American TV networks, it looks like, they invest a lot into news.
There are not a lot of places for an actor to explore what it's like to be a woman in her 60s. There aren't any films about it and there very few TV series about it.
I've done a movie and a TV series, and someday I'd like to do a successful movie and a successful TV series. That would be nice.
I kind of joke that creating franchises is a lot like directing pilot episodes of TV series. You set a look and feel and kind of pass it on.
I had a TV set and a typewriter and that made me think a computer should be laid out like a typewriter with a video screen.
