I can honestly say that being a United States Senator has been the honor of my life.
By religion, then, I understand a propitiation or conciliation of powers superior to man which are believed to direct and control the course of nature and of human life.
I have a confidence about my life that comes from standing tall on my own two feet.
And for me the only way to live life is to grab the bull by the horns and call up recording studios and set dates to go in recording studios. To try and accomplish something.
I realize as I get older that stand-up is a huge part of who I am. I think I'll do it for the rest of my life.
My music - that's the one area I won't let myself be pushed around. But in other parts of my life, I'm a confused mess.
No, I think it taught me to be independent and never expect a handout and never wait for anybody to hand you anything in any aspect of my life.
I've been doing this stuff for so long it's the one aspect of my life that I've paid attention to and really sort of not paid attention to the rest of it.
To me, respect for human life begins with making it more difficult to obtain an inanimate object that is designed to snuff it out.
Periods of inactivity, I don't know such things. I'm consistently writing. My life is busy. It always is. There are hardly any moments for self-indulgent laziness.
I think that often times Hollywood panders to the cliches of small town life, specifically Southern small town life, and I think that this movie does the opposite.
All my life I've been rowing against the tide. What can I do? It seems I was born that way.
'Lord Of The Rings' fandom was massive, worldwide, entrenched. Generally it had been part of the fans' life all their life, because they had it read to them as children; they'd become Tolkien students.
I'm not trying to follow a set of rules and stuff. I'm just living my life.
I watch one news channel until my soul can't take it anymore. It's the background of my life.
The theater I got to do informs every move I make as an actor and will for the rest of my life. I can't shake it if I wanted to, but I don't want to.
Actually, I only have a few friends in real life. And when I say friends, I'm referring to those people who I've known since the 1960s.
As comedians, we are all laughing because life is so horrible. Life is so difficult, and I cope with it by making jokes about absolutely everything.
I find its attention to living this life rather than the next one exhilarating because I think even independently of Judaism that that's the right way to go about life.
Through a huge duration of my life, someone has always picked up after me. And when you're on your own and you're trying to be independent, it's definitely different.
My basis of morality is this: does this action enhance life, or does it denigrate life? Does it build up or does it tear down?
