When I grew up where I grew up, things were very, very different, and nobody had a filter. And that's what brought us together.
So many things can be filtered through fandom - joy, compassion, love.
A comedian needs to have his own filters, needs to know his audience, how far he can push things.
Many things about our bodies would not seem to us so filthy and obscene if we did not have the idea of nobility in our heads.
With the finale episode of βGravity Falls' our job as storytellers is to finish all the things we've started.
These characters, they have to evolve. They're getting older on the show, these are things that happen in everyone's life. People do get married... this is just a natural evolution. I wonder if we'll have 'Big Bang' babies in the season finale?
What we have to find is the right level of regulation of our financial system so that it has the incentive to invest in things, but at the same time, it is sufficiently regulated so it can't get in the kind of trouble that we have seen in the past and we have seen recently.
Some things never change - there will be another crisis, and its impact will be felt by the financial markets.
There are people who can do all fine and heroic things but one - keep from telling their happiness to the unhappy.
You just have to find a lawyer that won't let you sign certain things - and I mean the fine print, because I was gone from Phil Spector and signed with Gamble and Huff in Philadelphia, and Phil bought my record contract back from them.
I love the finer things.
You're going to be much less likely to point the finger at somebody and create a huge brouhaha when it wasn't necessary if you had stopped and asked yourself, 'Could I have done things to prevent this situation?'
But the universe, as a collection of finite things, presents itself as a kind of island situated in a pure vacuity to which time, regarded as a series of mutually exclusive moments, is nothing and does nothing.
At a small company, so much of the trick is focus. Not only can you only do a finite number of things, but you have to do them in the right order.
I don't stick to a routine, because I like to mix things up, which stops training becoming boring and helps shock muscles into firing up.
To the person with a firm purpose all men and things are servants.
I started with the firm conviction that when I came to the end, I wanted to be regretting the things that I had done, not the things I hadn't.
The male is a domestic animal which, if treated with firmness and kindness, can be trained to do most things.
Starting off, I was pretty arrogant. They handed an 18-year-old the keys to a D1 FBS-contending university. I blew up a little bit, said some things I didn't mean, and that follows you. You get one chance to make a first impression. I made the wrong one.
One of the first things I bought when I made 'Roseanne Show' money was a farm in Iowa.
