I come from a very rough background, and I'm saying that if you work hard and dedicate yourself that you can make it, too.
You've got to have a villain and they'll always make me a villain. I'm used to it - it makes me work harder and it makes me fight harder.
I find if my body feels well and I exercise regularly, I think better, work better and feel better.
Session work makes you more strict. You can't hit notes all over the place. You've got to make each one really count.
I became a photographer in order to be a war photographer, and a photographer involved in what I thought were critical social issues. From the very beginning this was my goal.
When people think of slavery, they think of an era from the distant past. Grainy photographs from Civil War times. And yet it goes on.
I liked old time music but what i meant by that was the period from the 1930s through the 60s, nothing before and little after. Performers like fats waller, Sinatra, billie holiday, louis armstrong, rosemary clooney, ella, sammy Davis Jr, dean mart...
I'll show then that Anne Frank wasn't born yesterday
There's no such thing as old age. I'm no different now than I was 50 years ago. I'm just having more fun.
The world can't have a global solution to climate change with U.S. action alone; and the world can't have a global solution without U.S. action.
Under Thatcher, who ruled us with an iron rod, great art was made. Amazing designers and musicians. Acid house was born. Very colourful and progressive.
Great buildings that move the spirit have always been rare. In every case they are unique, poetic, products of the heart.
Today's developer is a poor substitute for the committed entrepreneur of the last century for whom the work of architecture represented a chance to celebrate the worth of his enterprise.
Proportions are what makes the old Greek temples classic in their beauty. They are like huge blocks, from which the air has been literally hewn out between the columns.
I always look forward to the next project. That is one of the wonderful things about architecture - you always can hope for another project to design.
Architecture is a service business. An architect is given a program, budget, place, and schedule. Sometimes the end product rises to art - or at least people call it that.
It's not new that architecture can profoundly affect a place, sometimes transform it. Architecture and any art can transform a person, even save someone.
Art is very tricky because it's what you do for yourself. It's much harder for me to make those works than the monuments or the architecture.
The first thing you must know as an actor or director is the space you will inhabit. See the architecture; imagine where things can happen in space.
The real artist has no idea that he is sacrificing himself for art. He does what he does for one reason and one reason only-he can't help doing it.
Acquiring a repertoire in these days, when the vocal literature is so immense, so overwhelming, that the student with sense will devote all his energies to work and not imagine himself a martyr to art.
