I never thought about being a writer as I grew up. A writer wasn't something I wanted to be. An outfielder was something to be. Most of what I know about style I learned from Roberto Clemente.
Robin Williams was a wonderful, kind, and generous man. One important thing I remember about his personality is that he was unassuming - he never acted as if he was powerful or famous.
I don't know that I had context for being trans until I moved to Rochester, New York, to pursue my dream of acting, and started going to drag shows. I had never seen a transsexual before, and I didn't yet fully understand my own identity.
If I could compete at home, and never leave Rochester, I'd be in perfect condition.
All of a sudden, someone threw me in front of this rock and roll band. And I decided then and there that was it. I never wanted to do anything else.
Rock bands were never newsworthy. In the '60s and '70s, rock bands weren't in the newspapers because they weren't considered mainstream; they wouldn't sell papers.
I never really felt like a rock singer or a rock star or whatever.
I never thought I would be recording on any professional level, so to be doing a rockabilly, Motown, pop soundtrack in a L.A. studio was completely bizarre and amazing.
I've never thought of acting as rocket science - you put on the costume, get your hair cut, and that's it, really.
A good old rodeo never hurt anyone.
If Roger stopped right now and never won another match, to me he'd already be one of the greatest players to ever play the game. To me, he's the greatest all around talent that I've ever seen.
I never met a man I didn't like until I met Will Rogers.
I had never been much of a science-fiction or Buck Rogers fan. I was more interested in what was going on right now than in the centuries to come.
When I start playing I'm just a rollercoaster of sound. I don't know what's coming next, I never do, and I sit and sign and talk to the people afterwards.
I've never tried to achieve anything. I achieved everything I wanted to achieve by being in the Rolling Stones and making records.
But no, I don't really like romantic comedies, so I don't really care. I never go see 'em.
The only thing I would unequivocally say is that I have never had any interest in romantic comedy I just couldn't do it. I think I'd be terrible.
You're always close and you never get that big romantic lead.
Anthropologists have found evidence of romantic love in 170 societies. They've never found a society that did not have it.
Romanticism has never been properly judged. Who was there to judge it? The critics!
