It was a terrible blow that was dealt when I was fired from 'Saturday Night Live', but I have to say that a few doors opened right away. Movie roles started to roll in, and pretty soon, I was over it.
I want people to know that movie stars live a normal, middle-class life.
You have to live in order to have something to write about - you get caught up in moviemaking and celebrities and money, and it's very intoxicating, but it doesn't give you what you need as a writer. You have to do something else for that.
The heart will break, but broken live on.
I don't live anywhere. I have always dreamed of moving out of my country because Sweden is boring.
That suspension of disbelief that's required as an actor to live truthfully in imaginary circumstances is different to what needs to happen as a director, in the sense that you are the master of all the moving parts. You create the world in every detail.
I have only a mind to live, to enjoy - i.e., to work as an artist, and produce my works; but not for the muddy brains of the common herd.
It's better to get mugged than to live a life of fear.
You get these moments in the ring that live forever. That's what Muhammad Ali accomplished, and I hope that I have, too.
My foundation now has some 120 football pitches laid out for children, a lot of them immigrants. We live in a multicultural society.
This multicultural approach, saying that we simply live side by side and live happily with each other has failed. Utterly failed.
Everything is cross-platform now. That's part of the reality that we live in - a multifaceted, multimedia world - and I'm delighted to be a part of that.
When I started doing drag, I always put together multimedia elements for live performance.
I always live in multiple places. I'm never in the same city for seven days.
I love museums but I don't want to live in one.
Obviously, I love country music, so I wanna be able to live in the country music genre and then play to country music fans.
Our live shows are a visual as well as a musical experience.
I could always play the drums, so I have some musical talent, but I don't live in Atlanta or LA, so I can't just randomly bump into major artists. So instead, I started building my fan base and my name by networking through the internet. Mostly through Twitter, Youtube, Instagram and Facebook.
I would say when you're dealing with live musicians and musicality, the warmth of a live instrument brings a certain feel to a song that is really hard, sometimes, to get from synthesized instruments.
I consider myself a poet first and a musician second. I live like a poet and I'll die like a poet.
