I sort of cringe when I hear myself say the word 'work.' Getting to do something you love to do never really feels like work.
Char Man: Want a cigarette? Adam: No, thank you. Char Man: I'm trying to cut down myself.
It was as though all my hostilities, anxieties, and conflicts were in one ball that was flying away into space, farther from me all the time, leaving me content with myself.
I find myself being attracted to dudes all the time. I'm like, 'Wow, that's a beautiful man.' There's no shame in it; that's how I feel.
I hate committing myself to anything. It's probably the lack of discipline, honestly. I'm probably a spoiled brat worried about getting my way every time.
As time goes by, I realize that I do trust the wind. And I often write my songs for myself.
I don't think of myself as a brand. Branding to me feels like a position or identity that's frozen in time. I'm more interested in transitions.
The idea of 'ferie,' or summer break, is a long tradition of which all Italians, including myself, participate. It's a time to relax, reflect and recharge.
Running started as a way of relaxing. It's the only time I have to myself. No phones or e-mails or faxes.
Being ill like this combines shock - this time I will die - with a pain and agony that are unfamiliar, that wrench me out of myself.
There are certain things that make me relax, like writing my journal. That's the only time that I'm relaxing. It's the only time I really get to examine myself.
I changed my name when I was 13. I don't know why but it made sense at the time. I wanted another identity. I wanted to reinvent myself.
I have a hard time watching myself! Usually I do the work, and then I leave it. So I pretend like I'm not on TV every week.
Every time I write a new book, I want to push myself to try something different.
I have a hard enough time speaking for myself - I don't pretend I can be a spokesman for anybody. I have no interest in playing that role.
I used to spend a lot of time just thinking about myself, thinking that the party started when I showed up.
I didn't really want to inject myself into anything political. A lot of people were asking me at the time about Jay and Conan, and I hate doing anything serious.
Every time I've gotten myself into trouble, it's because I'm choosing a project based on a long-term career goal as opposed to something that speaks to me at the moment.
By the second time I sang by myself in school, I just realized that I was more in control of my environment than I had ever been before.
I was regarded as the school freak which further reinforced a lot of inhibitions and doubts I had about myself. I was a shy, frightened teenager for a long time.
Each time I think I've created time for myself, along comes a throwback to disrupt my private space.
