I mean, I've always been a libertarian. Leave everybody alone. Let everybody else do what they want. Just stay out of everybody else's hair.
I want get across to not just the church world. I want to get outside those walls to everyday people.
I want to put out music that everyday people can relate to.
I don't just buy a dress because it's pretty - it has to be evocative of a mood, a character I want to take on.
Whenever you can evoke a strong emotion and want somebody to tune in, whether it's to see you win or get beat up - and I've been on both sides of that - it's a win.
I don't want to just revolve. I want to evolve. As a man, as a human, as a father, as a lover.
I want my ex-wife and children to be happy.
You don't particularly want to stay close to your ex-wife. Or why would she be your ex-wife?
We know what we are supposed to do and we don't want to do it, so we do the exact opposite anyway. And, it never goes well for us when we do that.
I treat others exactly the way I want to be treated.
What the feminists want of me is something they haven't examined because it comes from religion. They want me to bear witness.
I don't want to be put on a pedestal. I want to be known as a nice and normal person, but my skills are a little more excelled.
Everything that everyone is afraid of has already happened: The fragility of capitalism, which we don't want to admit; the loss of the empire of the United States; and American exceptionalism. In fact, American exceptionalism is that we are exceptionally backward in about fifteen different categories, from education to infrastructure.
I've learned some exciting things - mostly, that people really want to help each other; and that, if you can lay out a vision for them - and that vision is sincere and genuine - they'll get interested.
I really want to do a Western. I want to be the dude who is riding horses and doing exciting things - something where I get to do something physical and have to train for it. I don't want to be the damsel.
So it's one of those things where we have to - our problem is pacing ourselves and still reaching a large enough number of our audience. Because we don't want to burn the audience. And we don't want to be excluding anybody.
I think another thing is that we don't really want exclusivity. We accept that it is in the artist's interest to be on sale in every place where they sell music.
There is no reason why T-Mobile can't be successful on its own and the only real reason AT&T would want to own T-Mobile is to increase its exclusivity by owning more spectrum.
Value can mean a price. Value can mean exclusivity. Value can mean, 'I can't get it anywhere else, and this is really something I want.'
I want to be an executive producer.
