I'll admit it: I'm a control freak. I am. If I'm going to do something, I'm going to do it 110% or there's no point in doing it at all, especially if the work takes me away from time with my husband and children.
NATO was built to counteract the Soviet Union in its day and time. At this point there is no threat coming from the Soviet Union, because there is no Soviet Union anymore. And where there was the Soviet Union once, there is now a number of countries,...
Playing live is everything. Sometimes being on the road is hard, and it's a lot of work, and tiring. From a musical point of view, you improve all the time. Not only that, but you learn how to deal with people and deal with energy in a live setting.
When I was little, I didn't really travel - from the suburbs to Paris was already a journey. I had a foreigner's eye on the city, and I still enjoy that point of view. Then there's the fact that one of the things that touches me most is injustice.
I still recommend reading travel guides as an insight to a traveller's perspective on fantasy worlds. Nearly all characters end up travelling at some point, and they have many of the same needs and concerns covered in travel guides.
Everybody understands that you're supposed to say 'our employees are our most valuable asset' to the point where, even if it's really true, they're not going to really trust you until you've earned that - same with customers.

[pointing to a "Jacob's Ladder" on the set of Bride of the Atom] Bela Lugosi: I'm not getting near that goddamn thing. One of them burned me in "The Return of Chandu".
Fernando: [Points] That's the bank! As soon as I get some money, I'll put it in. Monco: But you're gonna have to earn it first.
Carol Connelly: Melvin, I'd rather not. Melvin Udall: What does that got to do with it? Carol Connelly: Funny, I thought it was a strong point.
Matt Kowalski: [On how to use a reentry module to get back to Earth] You just point the damned thing at Earth. It's not rocket science.
Publisher: [explaining that the "UFO" in photo is fake and pointing at the "UFO"] It says Kutahya porcelain on here. Look. Arif: [looking at photo] Well, I shot this in Kutahya. There's nothing wrong with it.
