There may be less of a chance of losing all the money you put into a mutual fund than there is of losing all the money you put into lottery tickets, but you're never going to win big in a mutual fund.
Here's something to think about: How come you never see a headline like 'Psychic Wins Lottery'?
I've never wanted to drive a car fast for the sake of it. I mean, I like nice cars. I've got the Bentley, I've had a Lotus, I've had a Rolls-Royce and a few Jaguars, including an E-type. But I'm not somebody for driving tremendously fast.
'Some Kind of Monster' is a challenge, and 'Through the Never' is an extension of that. Even the album we made with Lou Reed, it was a challenge.
I'm a big fan of Lou Reed, and I do a lot of talking through songs. It's more effective with my vocal limitations and also more powerful to slightly sing sometimes. It depends on the emotion, but I'm never going to try to compete with great singers.
Silence speaks so much louder than screaming tantrums. Never give anyone an excuse to say that you're crazy.
If you listen to Louis Armstrong from 1929, you will never hear anything better than that really, and you will never hear anything more free than that.
The wedding ring on my left hand was bought by my grandfather, Samuel Miliband, in Brussels in 1920. I never knew him, as he died when I was one. But his ring was kept by my aunt until it was placed on my finger by my wife Louise 32 years later.
The best morale exist when you never hear the word mentioned. When you hear a lot of talk about it, it's usually lousy.
A good newspaper is never nearly good enough but a lousy newspaper is a joy forever.
I was a lousy journalist. I could never be objective. Sometimes I invented the whole story.
We used to say poor people had lousy genes. Then we decided that wasn't OK, but we transferred the prejudice to upbringing. We said, 'You were neglected as a child, so you'll never make it.' That's just as pernicious.
I'd been going to the Louvre since 1951. I thought I knew Paris and the French, but I didn't really. You know how easy it is to make friends when you are traveling. People are curious about you, you are curious about them. But you never really make friends that way. After the Louvre, I discovered that I have friends now because I have enemies.
I could never imagine ever in my life that I'd be on the side of The Louvre.
Love always had my number. I could never patch a breakup together with whiskey and a one-night stand. I took them real hard.
I've never believed in or understood romantic love. Love at first sight was always a complete joke to me.
And in the middle of one of those scenes, I suddenly felt my heart just open: it was overwhelming, to the point where I got teary-eyed. Never would I have thought anything like that could happen in a love scene.
I've written many love songs for Gerard. But it's never enough. I feel that he deserves a million love songs written for him.
I have a love-hate relationship with working out. I do not enjoy the experience when I'm doing it, but I never regret it.
Never the time and the place and the loved one all together!
