I did get a huge endorphin rush when I was able to crack a system because it was like a video game.
I realize that I'm black, but I like to be viewed as a person, and this is everybody's wish.
I like going to the doctor, being vigilant, being told that I'm healthy so I can push myself.
There's an ugly civil war side to revolutionary Boston that we don't often talk about and a lot of thuggish, vigilante behavior by groups like the Sons of Liberty.
Of course there is really vile anti-Semitism in Wagner's writings, but I can't accept the idea that characters like Beckmesser and Alberich are Jewish stereotypes in disguise. Would Beckmesser be a court councillor if he was meant to be a Jewish stereotype? No Jew could occupy such a role.
Are people raised to be villains or vilified like I have become?
I understand being the villain is what people like. People play to that. They want to know about the villain.
Trump's supporters have taken over the Republican Party - not just because they like him but because they believe his approach to politics has been consistently vindicated.
Men are like wine - some turn to vinegar, but the best improve with age.
We found vines of a large size, and in some cases quite loaded with grapes; we also found an abundance of roses, which appeared to be like those of Castile.
One of my ambitions is to move to Tuscany. I like the idea of getting a vineyard. I love being under the sun and being casual and comfortable. That's my idea of heaven.
If you're sitting in a place like Martha's Vineyard, I don't think you're going to write a song about a ski resort.
I only wear vintage clothing. I'm pretty obsessed with things in the '60s, like fashion and music, too.
I like a few vintage Rolexes, and Panerais are good. I'm not into sports watches - I like chronometers.
I don't like new cars; I'm into vintage cars - there's a Jaguar E-Type in the 'Goldie' video.
I like vintage a lot.
I like the old, vintage Hollywood look.
I remember once, when I started writing for the alto saxophone, a saxophonist told me to think of it as being like a cross between an oboe and a viola, but louder.
I feel like you have to tell people who you are, but you don't have to be disrespectful about it. But you also don't have to be a shrinking violet.
Happiness is a thing to be practiced, like the violin.
