I was a bit of a troubled kid growing up, let's put it that way. I didn't take pleasure in hard work.

We love wealth, and we hate poor people. I know people who work in TV news who have actually been told to do stand-ups rather than put interviews with poor people on the air. We physically don't want to look at them.

Capitalism is a system for determining objective value.

We may be many things, we Americans, but we always get the job done.

It is embarrassing that a player would give up his career and the chance to compete for the biggest prizes in the game just for money.

My whole career has been fulfilling my childhood fantasies, playing characters that are larger than life, getting to play a knight, an elf, a prince, and a soldier.

We always say at CARE that we would love to see if we can work ourselves out of business.

When it comes to the business side of it, as much as you might hate it, the reality is that you give the record company a sort of ownership of your songs, so you've got to make sure you're getting everything you can out of it now, because if you're not, then who is?
