I work in a medium where I get to be totally invisible and I get great pleasure from that, being a pretty self-conscious person.
If I find something I like, I'll chase it and see what comes out the other side. Once a song gets momentum and gets away from you, that's a good sign.
If you get criticized, good - I don't think people get criticized enough. People talk behind your back and they criticize you, but they don't often come up and say it to you.
I'd rather get a good clean laugh with good material, than an easy laugh by swearing or shocking. That's not clever or comedic, anybody can get a laugh that way, it's too easy.
It was good to learn so early. They're not going to be kind to you. You have to do it and get on, and then gulp down and get better.
Most good programmers do programming not because they expect to get paid or get adulation by the public, but because it is fun to program.
I don't normally like getting dressed up, but when I go to events, I like to look put together. I've got to say, getting in a nice suit feels good.
By all means, marry. If you get a good wife, you'll become happy; if you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher.
Every time there's a really good story, there's women in it. We may not get as many roles, but the roles we get are really good, I think, for the most part.
Love casts out fear, but we have to get over the fear in order to get close enough to love them.
To me, my biggest fear is getting a big head, and that is when I get the hammer. Because it's very easy in this game to believe you're something special.
Hope is the belief we might get it done, and faith is the knowledge we will get it done.
I like getting older. When you're in your twenties you're really forging for your future. Things take shape later on.
We all know funny people who can't get it down on the page - even funny writers who can't get it down on the page.
I was just going at this career - boom, boom, boom! Then all of a sudden, at 38, Oh, my God - I forgot to get married!
You can't get around pain and opposition, but you can try to be joyful in the trial, and thank yourself for the trial, and thank God for the strength to get through it.
Getting along with men isn't what's truly important. The vital knowledge is how to get along with a man, one man.
Life on the road can get a little one-dimensional. I didn't want to reach 40 and have to say all I'd done was look out the window of a tour bus and get drunk.
I mean, I feel like you get more bees with honey. But that doesn't mean I don't get frustrated in my life.
To me, getting to do music and videos, you work on a character. Being onstage is acting; you get to be larger than life and larger than yourself.
I think maybe the rural influence in my life helped me in a sense, of knowing how to get close to people and talk to them and get my work done.
