I have always loved Ed Norton and Ryan Gosling. Also Julianne Moore and Cate Blanchett.

By the second tour I had rice cakes and hummus with me, and I was jumping rope in my room.

I love drag queens... they perform me better than I ever could myself.

Love the woods and nature and the water and animals. Stop the BS with poaching and hunting. Preservation is critical.

I think I was perceived in one fashion. A video is based on a song. I think you can get glimpses of people's presence within that. There's some people you enjoy watching more than others.

Emotional pain makes me want to isolate. Or hit back. It's very tough to rise above my natural inclinations. I'm always working on this.

Endeavor to live a simple life, but filled with complex love.

The first step to happiness and personal mastery is to start now.

As for drinks, I'm a sucker for flavored teas.

... in this valley of tears we must expect much sorrow and little consolation.

In my opinion, fun is what makes advertising successful.

I've never been out with a married woman, never. I respect others' properties.

The first business of a man of science is to proclaim the truth as he finds it, and let the world adjust itself as best it can to the new knowledge.

She bent her neck back and kissed him like she never had before. Like she wasn't scared of doing it wrong.
