I felt guilty throughout the whole time, but I was seduced. The power of these drugs, sex, power, and money, was extremely strong for me.
For a long time, I really struggled with the idea of being an actor because I really felt that I should be in the Peace Corps.
When I was younger, I felt it was my duty to wake people up. I thought poetry was asleep. I thought rock 'n' roll was asleep.
I have a very long relationship with America. My mother grew up there and I felt to some extent that I partly belong there. I was schooled there briefly for about a year.
I couldn't be in a relationship and behave like somebody else or pretend I felt something I didn't feel. And that includes saying things I thought might jeopardize the relationship.
The dilemma felt by science fiction writers will be perceived in other creative endeavors.
I felt bad when George Bush was booed. But only briefly. My sympathy for that man has a half-life of about four seconds.
I felt like I was a teacher. But nowadays, I am as much a student of his. He writes a lot of what we play.

Until I realized that rock music was my connection to the rest of the human race, I felt like I was dying, for some reason, and I didn't know why.
One thing I always loved about hip-hop music was the raw, boom-bap element - it felt powerful and manly.
I always felt like there was a certain standard of music that I had to do from the beginning, even when I didn't have the recognition that I have now.
There is no 'perfect' in music. If I ever came off the stage and felt it could not be better, it would then be time to quit.
If you leave your wife and you don't ever contact her again, that says something about how you felt about the marriage.
What I increasingly felt, in marriage and in motherhood, was that to live as a woman and to live as a feminist were two different and possibly irreconcilable things.
I grew up in L.A., and I don't think I've seen L.A. onscreen in a way that felt real to me. There are definitely movies, but they are few and far between.
He who has felt the deepest grief is best able to experience supreme happiness.
I suppose I had these concerns but I really felt that I had to keep my scope very, very concentrated.
In other people's company I felt I was dull, gloomy, unwelcome, at once bored and boring...
I loved eating and I did put on weight. I never actually felt fat until I started going for castings, for auditions.
I made the choice to have the double mastectomy, and for me it felt like the right choice, and it turned out to be the right choice.
