I'm not normally a jewelry person. I'm supposed to be a working class champion and all, and I don't like to rub my success in people's faces.
Personally, I don't like the term 'success.' It's too arbitrary and too relative a thing. It's usually someone else's definition, not yours.
When I did have a little bit of commercial success, it really didn't suit my temperament at all. I'm a terrible public person.
I always thought success was from inside, so it was how diversified you were as a person and how cultivated or how much you cultivated yourself.
The winner of the hoop race will be the first to realize her dream, not society's dream, her own personal dream.
I think the real free person in society is one that's disciplined. It's the one that can choose; that is the free one.
I'm an underdog person, so I align myself with those who seem to be not considered valuable in polite society.
The individual is not accountable to society for his actions in so far as these concern the interests of no person but himself.
I have cherished the ideal of a democratic and free society in which all persons live together in harmony and with equal opportunities.
Visual ideas combined with technology combined with personal interpretation equals photography. Each must hold it's own; if it doesn't, the thing collapses.
What I found personally to be true was that it's easier to manipulate people rather than technology.
The widespread adoption of broadband and the continued advances in personal computing technology are finally making it possible for the collective creation of an online world on a realistic scale.
I love festivals because I feel like I'm more of a movie fan than a person who's in the film industry.
I'm actually a very romantic person, and I would like to play in a love story. As long as it doesn't get too sweet. That's not me.
I think you ultimately have to love who you're playing. You have to have that kind of feeling. You have to have passion for the person.
My love affairs were more often about the fantasy than the actual person I was involved with.
Love has never failed. It has won every battle. And today and forever more it will go on undefeated. I'm also a very loving person.
It didn't even occur to me that I'm the last person in the world who should play salsa or Brazilian music.
Let's have the music that will open the door to millions of people... the kind of music that will not make people think only of the song or even of the singer... not music that is confined to the merely personal.
Music became an obsession, and eventually we felt more comfortable with each other then we did with anyone else. The three of us were like one person.
People get comfort from music. They get joy from it and understanding from it, and most of all, the average person can't do without it in some sense.
