A lot of people think I grew up with just my brother and me, but mom was there even when she wasn't. We had a good household.
The artistic taste of the Catholic priests is appalling and I am most anxious to have a Catholic church in which everything is genuine and good, and not tawdry and ostentatious.
It's not good if owners of sports teams are talking to sports journalists, bypassing the manager. That goes in the wrong direction wherever it happens. Therefore, I'll refrain from doing this at all.
You know, we always tried to rationalize by saying you take the good, you take the upside, you got to deal with the downside, you've to take the downside.
I don't think it's blowing my own horn to say the show is not as good. There was chemistry there that took years and years to build and now that's gone. The commentary is lacking.
I have a very, very good memory, and I always remember the people who have done right by me and the people who have done wrong by me.
I really don't like talking about money. All I can say is that the Good Lord must have wanted me to have it.
Sometimes people think that if you're always helping people up and never hit someone with a hard foul, you're automatically a good sport. I don't believe that.

People of small caliber are always carping. They are bent on showing their own superiority, their knowledge or prowess or good breeding.
The number-one job of the hedge-fund manager is not to make sure that you can retire with a smile on your face - it's for him to retire with a smile on his face.
So it really does have a sort of bittersweet quality. Kids like to have adventures and to believe they can fly, but there's also that fear about people leaving you.
I want my buildings to take root and look as if they've always been there. It isn't about pastiche or adapting what's already there. It's about trying to blend the future and the past.
I am not afraid of my enemies, but by God, you must look out when you get among your friends.
You look after yourself. You believe in God. And if people want to drag you down, you fight that, and you keep on fighting.
I see my boys about 10 days every month. And, yes, they are the most important people in my life.
But I've got to think of myself as the luckiest guy. Robert Johnson only had one album's worth of work as his legacy. That's all that life allowed him.
The question of sexual dominance can exist only in the nightmare of that soul which has armed itself, totally, against the possibility of the changing motion of conquest and surrender, which is love.

We all know we are unique individuals, but we tend to see others as representatives of groups.
