I used to do this as a kid. And now they're paying me for it, which is cool.
The '60s were a time of great change in American music.
I believe in music because it has the power of change.
I thought I'd write one book and the world would change overnight.
Otherwise, I spend a lot of time at my boyfriend's home in the country, in New Jersey.
There is a powerful need for people to feel that gust of hope rise up again.
Whatever I do, I hope it's quality, I hope it's something that's class.
I don't want to live in a culture of despair. I'd like to live in a culture of hope.
I hope people will say, 'Mr. Valentino, he did something for fashion, no?'
Even an unsuccessful Olympic bid can be the source of change within a city if organizers adhere to their vision.
Using political tools to change social conditions won't work.
If you live in L.A. long enough, you get into having a cool car.
I'm glad to see that BMW is bringing an electric car to market. That's cool.
The two most joyous times of the year are Christmas morning and the end of school.
My Christmases have always just been very simple and about family.
I know exactly where I've come from, I know exactly who my mum and dad are.
I'm left handed, but my dad taught me to play guitar right-handed.
My father? I never knew him. Never even seen a picture of him.
I grew up in Queensland, and my dad was a tradesman and my mum an insurance agent, both self-employed.
Well, my dad was the district attorney of New Orleans for about 30 years.
My dad thought I'd end up in the poorhouse or in doughnut shops with a bag full of reviews.
