Those things interest me a lot in songwriting - the human nature of how people think, and the muck that we wind up in.
If you have a lot of nature in your city, it becomes a more enjoyable place. That's my own feeling about it.
It's certainly a lot more difficult to get a project made if you're talking about something progressive. That's just the nature of the industry.
I have to give a lot of credit to Sandy Weill, because he gets it. He gets the power of the women's contribution to the economy.
Because I've done a lot of theater, I know what power is and how megalomaniacs are, since I've certainly played some.
A lot of people have questioned how yoga and their own spiritual beliefs can come together. Yoga actually pre-dates religion.
I enjoy the Web site a lot and I like being able to talk to my readers. I've always had a very close relationship with them.
I have a particular relationship with Vinod Khosla because he's got a lot of very interesting science-based energy startups.
I'm the old-school, letter-writing romantic. I know it's out of style, and not a lot of women go for that these days, but that's what I go for.
I get a lot of advice from Mark Harmon, and I take it all to heart because I respect the heck out of him.
Success turns a lot of people off. I have a pretty solid sense of joy and respect that irritates people, and can irritate me, too.
By the way, I'm not a vegetarian. I have a lot of respect for people who are vegetarian for religious or ethical reasons.
There are a lot of directors out there who are very specific, visual craftsmen, and while I have the utmost respect for that, they don't really communicate with the actors.
I have a lot of respect for the auto manufacturers. They make a product people live inside - and can die inside - so they are held to very high standards.
A lot of what the 'Culture' is about is a reaction to all the science fiction I was reading in my very early teens.
My character, Taylor McKessie, is a little bit brighter in the math and science department than I am... okay, a lot.
Even when I'm in quite a happy state of mind, I like writing really sad songs. I think a lot of people do.
Homeless people really upset me when I was little. A lot of kids have this reaction, but I would get really worried or sad or concerned or cry.
My solo album is dead and buried. We had the funeral. It was sad and I cried a lot but it made such a beautiful corpse that we had an open casket.
Monday Night Football started in 1970, and when it started, it was something extremely special because sports had not been aired in prime time. So, it was a novelty, and a lot of people thought it wouldn't work, and, of course, it worked spectacularl...
I also watched a lot of football and sports. I haven't had much time to watch too much TV lately.
