The smarter the journalists are, the better off society is. For to a degree, people read the press to inform themselves - and the better the teacher, the better the student body.
I really believe that we don't have to make a trade-off between security and privacy. I think technology gives us the ability to have both.
I love talking to the audience, and I must be the luckiest performer in the world. I always land something or somebody that just takes off.
Alcohol is like love. The first kiss is magic, the second is intimate, the third is routine. After that you take the girl's clothes off.
I can say I'm not doing 'X-Men.' I love the franchise, and I love the people who make them on and off screen.
I can't exactly say why there's not much protest music to speak off. And I know there are acts out there still putting a message in their music.
A Deap Vally renaissance is going to begin next year and will be our focus for the start of 2013. They will blow the cobwebs off a music scene that has become just a little bit stale.
My mother knew how to read music and everything. But I just kinda learned off of records. And so, I was listening to records and I'd play 'em over and over.
Music and dance influence my style in a lot of ways. Sometimes I go off to work dressed up like I'm going to hit the stage and perform.
Me as an artist, I've ventured off into doing all types of music. I'll do a jazz album, you know what I mean.
I had never done TV. I think it's a foolish medium for, most rock 'n roll music. Nobody ever comes off well on TV.
I started off with classical music, and I got into jazz when I was about 14 years old. And I've been playing jazz ever since.
There is no 'perfect' in music. If I ever came off the stage and felt it could not be better, it would then be time to quit.
Music makes or breaks an atmosphere. It helps to create the mood and also is a very important aural cue; simply shut off the music when you want people to leave.
Then the album created a tremendous furor and got me kicked off Christian television for two months, and then restored after they settled down and listened to the music and realized there was nothing wrong with it.
I wake up laughing. Yes, I wake up in the morning and there I am just laughing my head off.
We also own a little boat and I'm like a kid with it. I take off early in the morning, fishing rod in tow, and just drift about the ocean all day.
I'm not a T.G.I.F. guy. I get off a plane at 2 o'clock in the morning and I'm looking for my secretary because I want to know what's going on.
Men haven't changed their behaviour, so women somehow have to be strengthened to be able to ward off the men.
Not that we didn't have close relationships with our parents - I'm very close to my mom - but parents didn't think anything of going off for a few weeks and leaving their kids.
Anyone who knows me knows my mom, Dorcina, has to sign off on any decision and that she will play a major part in any decision.
