When you have put all your faith in man and continue to be disappointed, don't you hope there is something out of there that is not of human element?
I have kind of a funny relationship with movies. I don't have to see the whole movie to get an impression of it or to let it have an influence on me.
I think the first rule of comedy is that it has to be funny and I find a lot of the broad comedy which is sent to me, painfully unfunny.
I'm not that good looking. That's why 'Gangnam Style' works. If someone handsome uses that phrase it's just awkward. But if someone like me uses it, it's funny.
I'm not just a singer of funny songs; I am basically, first and foremost, a musician. I'm always recording all styles of music.
Do you know, it's funny, but I never thought of being blind as a disadvantage, and I never thought of being black as a disadvantage.
Humor has become so cliche and boring that nothing's funny anymore unless it involves something totally disgusting that offends somebody or makes them feel really uncomfortable.
Why has God given me such magnificent talent? It is a curse as well as a great blessing.
I don't care what the religion is called; as far as I'm concerned, one God, the God I adhere to, is in charge of all of them.
As I'd go out learning to surf, I'd feel the power of waves coming over my body. It's like you're with God.
Thank God, it is over, that I have seen it and am able to tell it to the world.
A singer starts by having his instrument as a gift from God... When you have been given something in a moment of grace, it is sacrilegious to be greedy.
Newt Gingrich has a restless and outsized intelligence that is tragically unleavened by any kind of critical sensibility.
Obviously, in dealing with a relationship, sexuality has to be involved, and jealousy and emotions like that. And I don't know, I've always been intrigued by those emotions.
Writing music is sort of my hobby, but it's been falling off more and more. Doing comic books takes up my entire life.
I wanted to tell my story in a way I haven't done before, things I've been going through in my life.
I guess I'm attracted to people who are singing about love or life, and they have a particular passion that I can connect with.
You can't just sit around and make protest albums all your life; eventually it comes to the point where you have to do something.
Honestly, are we ever going to get over 'California Girls' by Katy Perry? I know it's old, but that song - I love that song!
There's no dancing girls. We're kinda like secondary to the thing. It's a story about these two guys that are in love with this one girl and how it unfolds and what happens.
I love Motown, but I've obviously always been more of a Memphis soul fan. If it's Stax or Motown, I go Stax.
