I think it's one of my favourite theatres ever, so quirky and wonderful and steeped in history. The space is wonderful and the acoustics are brilliant.
I think that standup has always been an acquired taste and there was always only a handful of performers that were really inspired.
I think it is totally wrong and terribly harmful if education is defined as acquiring knowledge.
I think the acquisition of consumers might be on the verge of being mapped. The battlefield is going to be retention and lifetime value.
We've demonstrated a strong track record of being very disciplined with the use of our cash. We don't let it burn a hole in our pocket, we don't allow it to motivate us to do stupid acquisitions. And so I think that we'd like to continue to keep our powder dry, because we do feel that there are one or more strategic opportunities in the future.
If you think about the history of the PC industry, the PC industry has essentially been nothing but acquisitions by one company or another. Dell is the outlier. Dell built its own culture. They automated themselves to be the most efficient manufacturer.
When I think about protest, I worry so much that people think about it only as standing in the streets. And I say that as someone who has been standing in the streets of cities across the country - but at the root of it is this idea of telling the truth in public.
My acting ability would have sent me back to the post office. It was my singing that got me jobs. Ironically, now, people think of me as an actor and don't know me much as a singer.
I think personal growth has much to do with acting ability.
I think anger does fuel a successful acting career. To play the great roles, you have to learn how to blaze.
I think the part of my acting career where I've been more successful, I've been incredibly cushioned. People are much too nice to you. You go into politics, and people are absolutely brutal. You've got proper enemies, and they're vicious. It's very invigorating.
Acting... honestly, I'm so uncomfortable and so awkward that I could never think about setting foot in a theater room or acting class.
After I found that I had become an actor, slightly to my surprise, I did have some insecurity, and I did take some rather strange acting classes at a place called The Actor's Studio in London. I don't think they did me any good at all.
I never thought of myself doing period. When you're in your acting classes, and you think about the kind of roles you want to play, it's always 'modern relationship drama'-type things.
I love acting classes. I think they're great. It's like working out in the gym. It's a great place to figure out everything that's working and what isn't working.
I didn't go to acting school, but I've been observing my fellow man for 66 years now, and I would think that's the best school there is.
I remember getting out of acting school and friends of mine talking about, like, 'You know, I don't think I'm gonna do TV.' Like, people putting on these airs of being picky. And I was never a snob about it.
I don't think having a My Chemical Romance action figure will make a kid start his own band, I like to think it will make him save children from a burning building.
I think people get confused: people think 'strong female characters' mean you need to play an action figure.
I may never get my own action figure, but at least I think what I'm doing is really legitimate musically.
