It's a magical thing, the guitar. It allows you to be the whole band in one, to play rhythm and melody, sing over the top. And as an instrument for solos, you can bend notes, draw emotional content out of tiny movements, vibratos and tonal things which even a piano can't do.
They say I spend too much money, so they take it and put it away for me. What do I spend it on? Oh, old records and presents and things.
Things must be done by parties, not by persons using parties as tools.
Other than things like toothpaste, I don't buy anything that isn't sold to me.
Three months before he died, I began to steal things from my father's house. I wandered around barefoot and slipped objects into my pockets. I took blush, toothpaste, two chipped finger bowls in celadon blue, a bottle of nail polish, a pair of worn patent-leather ballet slippers, and four faded white pillowcases the color of old teeth.
One of the hardest things I've had to deal with in my career is keeping my material topical even though I only release albums every three or four years.
That's a nice thing about being a topical standup: you can add in things to keep it fresh.
I end up writing about all kinds of things. I never make an attempt to write about anything in particular. I don't have a little list of topics to write about.
I don't regret being topless in certain things, but there were some things in 'EastEnders' where there was no reason for me to be topless.
I think the Tories are doing - and are intent on doing - damage to things I hold dear.
Every time the Tories get a bit of power, they rip off all the things I love... The mining industry. Milk.
The world is the totality of facts, not of things.
Emmitt Smith is a great running back. One of the things I like about him along with Edgerrin James is that neither one of them 'show out' when they run a touchdown.
I guess the toughest things in translations are word play, which can never be reproduced exactly.
I have a track record of getting things done as secretary of Housing and Urban Development.
I enjoy my John Deere tractor quite a lot. It's a tool that I must use to keep Mother Nature at bay. I have all kinds of things encroaching on my property.
I had no idea 'Big Green Tractor' was going to be as big a hit as it was. You just can't predict those things.
I was missing out on a lot of things that my friends were doing, but in another way, they were missing things I was doing. It was kind of a trade-off I had to make.
There are so many things that you have no control over: whether you play or not, whether you get traded or not, or whether you get waived or not.
When I got traded to the California Angels, I really wasn't that excited about going to the Angels because it meant changing leagues and also a whole new set of teammates. But shortly after I got there I realized that it was one of the best things that ever happened to me.
