I like my life. I've had a good life. I think the reason is my parents taught me that life is a burden. But if you take it one day at a time, it's an easy burden.
My idea of good living is not about eating high on the hog. Rather, to me, good living means understanding how food connects us to the earth.
Living in my parents' house is pretty sweet. It's not like they're rich or anything, but they're pretty nice to me, so it was pretty good living there, too, and all I did was jujitsu. I was just like a stallion, just living on my parents' couch. It wasn't terrible.
I think I've been very fortunate, considering the obstacles that I had to deal with, you know, just being - by virtue of being a brown, lovely, brown-skinned man. But on the other hand, I've been able to make a good living, and I've been able to take care of my family, which is most important to me.
For every Steven King, there are a dozen guys like me who make a good living. For every David Brin, there are a dozen authors who have managed to make it their day job. For each of them, there are a dozen more for whom writing is a terrific supplement.
It's all because of my parents that I am gifted with such good looks and people get attracted to me. I have built an image in the industry, and because of that, I have so many female fans. I want to build my male fan following, too.
I really don't like talking about money. All I can say is that the Good Lord must have wanted me to have it.
Balenciaga was my religion. Since I'm a believer, for me, there's Balenciaga, and the good Lord.
The good Lord was good to me. He gave me a strong body, a good right arm, and a weak mind.
In my almost 92 years on this earth, the good Lord has blessed me with a great journey.
I'm not the most religous person in the world, but I think the good Lord up there has blessed me.
I just want to thank the good Lord for giving me the ability to play the game I love.
I'd like to thank the good Lord for making me a Yankee.
I have spent over 60 years bent over a guitar and to know that I wrote 70 compositions that masters have recorded, that makes me feel so good and full, and proud and thankful to the good Lord.
As I was growing up, I did a lot of talent shows. I won fifteen Sunday nights straight in a series of talent shows in Macon. I showed up the sixteenth night, and they wouldn't let me go on any more. Whatever success I had was through the help of the good Lord.
Show me a good loser, and I'll show you a loser.
When I was a kid, my mother told me that if you could not be a good loser, then there's no way you could be a good winner.
Show me a good loser and I will show you a loser.
Show me a good loser and I'll show you an idiot.
