I must confess that I'm not a great reader. At the moment I'm reading my son's 'Stig of the Dump' by Clive King and I've got a plant catalogue on the go.
Feeling emotionally connected to a song, and accumulating every bit of the moment's energy to sing out to the audience is what I believe makes a great performer.
Seek the lofty by reading, hearing and seeing great work at some moment every day.
And Oliver North was really a good soldier, up to the last moment, shoving memos into the shredder and defending the policy to the end.
I've never formally trained for pain management, but I have a good understanding of how to conquer it. I just analyze the pain, feel it in the moment, and then mentally become numb to it.
A bland smile is like a green light at an intersection, it feels good when you get one, but you forget it the moment you're past it.
A lot of times songs are very much of a moment, that you just encapsulate. They come to you, you write them, you feel good that day, or bad that day.
Act well at the moment, and you have performed a good action for all eternity.
Here's what happens - you create something in the moment that you feel will be good, and then... people's reactions to it or people referencing it years later, it's a compliment.
'Life Is Good' represents the most beautiful, dramatic and heavy moments in my life.
There is one thing the photograph must contain, the humanity of the moment. This kind of photography is realism. But realism is not enough - there has to be vision, and the two together can make a good photograph.
I like those crisis moments - if you're on top of it and don't get pulled under by panic and fear, it's a very bonding thing.
To know that every moment - regardless of how it comes wrapped - is a gift greater than you can give yourself, is to be well on your way to a life without fear.
I remember looking at the sky and thinking that the universe is so big and it's all chaos. I call it 'the dark fear.' At any moment, the dark fear could come in.
We all want to be famous people, and the moment we want to be something we are no longer free.
I would most like to do film or TV. Possibly theatre in the future, but I'm in L.A. a lot of the time at the moment and if I was going to do theatre it would be in London.
It's a fine balance for an athlete in enjoying the moment and being really satisfied, say, with a run, and with your day, and knowing you can make it better in the future.
There is never time in the future in which we will work out our salvation. The challenge is in the moment; the time is always now.
Live in the moment, day by day, and don't stress about the future. People are so caught up in looking into the future, that they kind of lose what's in front of them.
I don't know whether I'm, like, jumping the gun but it's possible that in the future we may be able to use the information that we can't receive at the moment.
By the time a person has achieved years adequate for choosing a direction, the die is cast and the moment has long since passed which determined the future.
