What I like writing about are people's relationships, not necessarily great big dramatic things but the smaller things in life and how they affect characters and challenge and change the people that they are. I do like a happy ending, so my books have to have a happy ending.
People liked my performances in 'Kill Dill' and 'Happy Ending,' but I was hardly there in them.
I call on people to be 'obsessed citizens,' forever questioning and asking for accountability. That's the only chance we have today of a healthy and happy life.
I'm a fun song maker. I love to make people smile. I also love to see them big, burly dudes crying because their wives' song is 'Die a Happy Man.'
My ideology was, if I just make very happy music, very happy music, then people will forget about whatever their problems are. I will forget about my problems.
We play happy music, and we make people happy. That's why they like us.
Money doesn't make people happy. People make people happy.
There is no evidence that success in business will make us happy people or allow us to have happy families.
I love when people are just naturally happy people.
I have Marvin Gaye's driver's license. His wife sent it to me, because she really loved my 'Happy People' record. She said that she thought it represented the sprit of her husband. The license is from California. I get inspired every time I look at it.
If I laugh a couple of times a day, I'm doing good. People think it's their God-given right to be happy, and it's just not. It's something you've got to work at. I like to paint the human condition, and the human condition is not smiles and happy people.
I hated Peter O'Toole. I wanted to kill that guy! When they said he was dead, I was happy. People said, 'Poor Peter O'Toole.' I was happy!
I'm afraid of happy people. They're chemically unbalanced.
I'm pretty happy. I obviously have complaints about things, but for the most part, I'm on the above-average side of happy people.
Religious people are simply following major core practices of happy people. For example, one benefits from the guaranteed social support that can be found in a church, synagogue, or mosque.
I'm so happy people have enjoyed listening to my tracks.
I love weddings: happy people coming together to celebrate in great clothes.
I have seen really happy people in my life sing really well. Yes, when people get fame, then there's depression.
Unhappiness is an unfinished state; happy people don't need our help.
I try to avoid describing one interpretation of my books. Of course I have an opinion. I have things I want to say, but I don't ever want to limit anybody, to have them say, 'Oh, he said this, so that's what it's about.' I'm happy people bring their own stuff to it.
