When I was a kid I got no respect. I played hide-and-seek. They wouldn't even look for me.

My psychiatrist told me I was crazy and I said I want a second opinion. He said okay, you're ugly too.

I told my wife the truth. I told her I was seeing a psychiatrist. Then she told me the truth: that she was seeing a psychiatrist, two plumbers, and a bartender.

I looked up my family tree and found out I was the sap.

I told my dentist my teeth are going yellow. he told me to wear a brown tie.

If beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so is ugliness.

When I was a kid my parents moved a lot, but I always found them.

I told my psychiatrist that everyone hates me. He said I was being ridiculous - everyone hasn't met me yet.

I had plenty of pimples as a kid. One day I fell asleep in the library. When I woke up, a blind man was reading my face.

My mother had morning sickness after I was born.

You know you're ugly when you go to the proctologist and he sticks his finger in your mouth.

And yet, wasn't the terrific thing about stories the fact that they joined readers together, that they made people realize they were not alone in their hopes, dreams, and fears?

I can enjoy anywhere, and I can leave it. Life is about moving on.

For now, decisions are upon us and we cannot afford delay. We cannot mistake absolutism for principle or substitute spectacle for politics, or treat name-calling as reasoned debate.

I think that's the way to go - dive into the music and don't think, stay frozen, why don't we all stay frozen in time for awhile?

We need people who will strictly interpret the law and not be promoting an agenda, as is the danger right now with some members of the Supreme Court.

It's my motto for life. 'Walk slowly; drink lots of water.

It turns out I'm absolutely terrible at staying away from you. It's a very serious problem.

I'd rather end up wishing I hadn’t than end up wishing I had.

I think about art a lot only in two contexts. One is narrative... The other thing that I'm interested in, which is tangential, but not unrelated... All art to me is about problem solving.

I would rather have one man with enthusiasm working with me than ten who are complacent.
