As a result, I had to get my own playground which was my band Colours. This band lasted for about eight years and then the air was out of it and it was time to finish.
I've worked as someone's deputy, and now it's time for me to run something. It's time for me to run my own shop.
Remember to write for yourself, not for a market and give yourself time to develop your own style, your own voice. It takes a lifetime. Enjoy it!
You learn just by trying and experimenting. By the time I was 14, I had my own comic strip in the Kansas City paper.
There is no better than adversity. Every defeat, every heartbreak, every loss, contains its own seed, its own lesson on how to improve your performance the next time.

Benjamin Button: I'm always lookin' out my own eyes.
Charles Foster Kane: A toast, Jedediah: to Love on my own terms.

I would rather take the role and work and make my own money and self respect than to have sex with someone who has a lot of money.
When I designed my first house in L.A., I didn't have any money - I did it all on my own. I liked that.
I'm always astonished by a forest. It makes me realise that the fantasy of nature is much larger than my own fantasy. I still have things to learn.
People want to hear about the extremes of human nature. They want things that are larger than their own lives, and more romantic, and not necessarily of their own experiences.
Poetry and prose are of equal importance to me as a reader, and there doesn't seem to be much difference in my own writing.
I have my own religion. I'm sort of one-quarter Baptist, one-quarter Catholic, one-quarter Jewish.
