It's part of my nature. I get excited when trying out new stuff, whether it be an idea or equipment. It stimulates my juices.
I was trying to do too many things at the same time, which is my nature. But I was enjoying it, and I still do enjoy it.
They are representations of many shared hours of collaboration between us all. That's the real nature of the relationship the orchestra and I are trying to build.
If you care about other people, you might try to organize to undermine power and authority. That's not going to happen if you care only about yourself.
Instead of trying to come up and pontificate on what literature is, you need to talk with children, to teachers, and make sure they get poetry in the curriculum early.
I think that we are at a point in our country where we're trying to decide what role should religion play in the political arena.
It may be that religion is dead, and if it is, we had better know it and set ourselves to try to discover other sources of moral strength before it is too late.
It's the relationship I have with the world: always trying to escape from reality. I'm a daydreamer; I don't feel in harmony with my epoch or the societies I live in.
I consider the relationship with the U.S. very important to Brazil. I will try to forge closer ties with the U.S.
Rather than diminishing the idea of 'truly needing' a relationship - and trying to deny it, shame it, or talk ourselves out of it - why not just celebrate it? It's exactly what the world needs.
Why do you think I write these feminist songs, to try and teach myself to respect myself. You know, it's not because I'm a hero.
Every once in a while, you live long enough to get the respect that people didn't want to give while you were trying to become a senior citizen.
Since the composer has said everything, if you discover everything, it will be enough and you will be a happy man. Don't try to say it's your taste, and because of that you are changing this or that. And I must say this respect is still there.
My husband acts and I have such respect for those that do it well, that I wouldn't even try to pretend I can act.
I don't expect to try to get people to like everything I do. I want them to respect what I do.
That's the whole problem with science. You've got a bunch of empiricists trying to describe things of unimaginable wonder.
I've spent a lot of time trying to understand how all the big cosmetics companies get away with the placebo science and unscientific claims.
People are interested in science, but they don't always know they're interested in science, and so I try to find a way to get them interested.
That's really what science is just trying to figure stuff out, and I like figuring stuff out.
It's sad, something coming to an end. It cracks you open, in a way - cracks you open to feeling. When you try to avoid the pain, it creates greater pain.
It's very rare that things are true about yourself that are on the Internet. It's just sad sometimes. So you definitely try and stay away from it as much as possible.
