I have never said that there is no need for a guru. All depends on what you call guru. He need not be in a human form.
I had a Guru. He was a great saint and most merciful. I served him long - very, very long; still, he would not blow any mantra in my ears. I had a keen desire never to leave him but to stay with him and serve him and at all cost receive some instruction from him.
The business is all about gush and hype. You never have a bad meeting in L.A.
I have never savored life with such gusto as I do now.
I've never gone wrong trusting my gut.
Advice number one: listen to your gut - it's never gonna lead you wrong. Number two: trust yourself. The root of everything is self-belief.
Never ignore a gut feeling, but never believe that it's enough.
I really try to play to my strengths, man. I'm never going to be Guthrie Govan: he's a brilliant player.
I kept my head; I mean, I've never been one of those people who ended up in the gutter with sick in my hair.
It's a real strength for me that I've never minded the training process. It's something I enjoy. I really like being in the gym or, certainly, on the field.
Those small things, like giving a hug to man, I try to avoid it. Because I can see the situation is coming, and I try to prepare. But I remember the first time I did it, I was 16, and I was at the gymnasium, and it was a cosmopolitan thing, an international thing, a modern thing, but I never felt at ease with it at all.
It will never be mistaken for a high school gymnasium or a meeting room in a Midwestern motel.
I was never invited to the White House. They invited that Olympic Russian gymnast - that little Communist, Olga Korbut.
I could have never been a high diver or a gymnast because I don't like subjectivity. I love where I'm faster than you,, or I can jump higher or swim faster. I don't want you holding a card before I figure out whether I won or lost.
As the mother teaches her children how to express themselves in their language, so one Gypsy musician teaches the other. They have never shown any need for notation.
The funny thing is that I've known since I was 7 years old that I was never going to have kids. I always imagined myself as this worldly, traveling gypsy lady.
The Grand Bargain is a Grand Lie. Anyone who argues for it is either a fool or a charlatan. If President Obama was anything but the establishment hack that he is, he would never consider it.
Michael Rooker is like the Merle Haggard of the acting world. Never a dull moment.
Honestly, I never thought we'd get a nomination for a Grammy, period. To be honest, we felt that if we were ever going to get one, we thought we had 'City of Evil' and 'Nightmare' and 'Hail to the King,' and those were all big records, and they never even sniffed at us.
Someone once asked me, 'How long does it take to do your hair.' I said, 'I don't know, I'm never there.'
