I watch some CNN and a lot of Fox, because it helps me get irritated.
Since that moment in Houston where I fractured my collarbone, I've experienced a lot more experiences in the NFL than I had up to that point. A lot of them great, some of them not so great.
I don't like to feel like I'm some fragile package that has to be shipped by high-priority mail and handled with white gloves.
Teenagers have a natural curiosity and are keen to clock up experiences. What they need to be wary of is that some experiences may erode their sense of self and lead to a fragmentation of morals.
Some things remain fragments, just the lyrics and melodies or a line or two or a verse.
I have some special things at home, but not too many. I've got two shirts framed - that's all - my first Premiership final with Saracens and my first England cap. They're not signed by anyone; they're not even washed. They stink!
I was studying Francis of Assisi for quite some time, when Benedict was still the pope. And I was studying it for a song that I did for my last album, 'Banga.'

Do people really want liberty, equality, fraternity? Is it not some manner of speaking?
Every writer I've ever spoken to feels fraudulent in some way or other.
China is a major power in the Pacific and I think we are dealing with some common threats in that region: the whole issue of Korea and the stability of Korea, the whole issue of nuclear proliferation, the whole issue of providing free access to our ships that are operating in that area.
Some of the free lunch programs were still goin' on - based on the last leg of the Black Panther Party.
If I have some free time, I leave Paris with some books about the cinema. If I'm not filming, I'm watching films.
Let's start getting some free trade agreements started as soon as we can. We need to get on with it; we need to get a grip and make progress.
To protect our freedoms, it seems we're going to have to relinquish some of our freedoms for a short period of time.
I always keep some variety of dumpling in my freezer for convenience, but frozen homemade pierogi are a special treat.
I can bake. I made myself some nice French fries once. But otherwise I just eat out. Lots of salad bars.
