If you compromise in any kind of movement or any kind of wave of revolution, if you sort of play the game, things are gonna change far more slowly than you need them to.
I don't want to bore people or myself - to be busy is something to be grateful for, but to be busy doing diverse work is absolutely... I wouldn't change it for the world. I feel very lucky for that.
To make sense of a world in which rapid change and globalisation create genuine insecurity, we need benchmarks by which we can judge our actions and their long-term impact.
My background is in hardware design. I found hardware work to be a welcome change from thousands of hours of programming and that led to the designs you mentioned.
You cannot be driven by the polls. The polls change all the time; they're easily manipulated by whoever wants to ask those poll questions; they go up; they go down.
I've never been a part of a film before that offers such a platform into real issues, that raises social awareness and has the potential to change things.
You have to see the human being in the enemy. If there is potential for change, there is still hope.

Forget about the consequences of failure. Failure is only a temporary change in direction to set you straight for your next success.
The environment doesn't change that radically. You are still going to go home at night and NBC is going to be there, ABC and CBS will still be there.
I think that the change began... I made a film a few years ago called The Spitfire Grill, and that didn't make much money either, but it was a good film and an independent film.
And I agreed with that, and I couldn't wait to change my name anyway, because I'm not too fond of the name of Reginald. It's a very kind of '50s English name.

Writing music on your own makes you think a lot about your life. Who are you? Would you change anything about yourself? This is where it comes from.
I'm not sure I am a politician. I would say that I am still an artist, and I'm trying to use politics as an instrument for change.
