I wake up every morning feeling lucky - which is driven by fear, no doubt, since I know it could all go away.
Civilization must stand up and combat the current collapse of governance, the rise of violence, and the spread of chaos and fear in many parts of the world.
No one is famous when they wake up in the morning, so it's nice seeing people in moments when they're just being themselves.
We're Americans. We shape our own future. Let's start by standing up for President Barack Obama.
Everyone goes through the ups and downs of living - fretting about the future, worrying about what happened. Music teaches us how to be in the moment.
Why have we had to invent Eden, to live submerged in the nostalgia of a lost paradise, to make up utopias, propose a future for ourselves?
My parents taught me to never give up and to always believe that my future could be whatever I dreamt it to be.
I have no idea what I'm going to say when I stand up to give a toast. But I do know that anything I say I find funny.
If the worst that happens is that I wake up and see a picture of myself and a headline saying, 'He wasn't very funny last night', then I've got nothing to complain about.
I don't know what I want to be when I grow up. It's funny - people ask me that, and I don't know what to tell them.
When I wake up every morning, I thank God for the new day.

There's something magical about putting yourself into life. You've got to stand up and take responsibility for your own life and you cannot abandon that.
People just wanna talk. They wanna create negative things about you and your life and make up things. You can't let them affect you!
I think back to the old people I knew when I was growing up, and they always seemed larger than life.
Reality always outstrips fiction. Whatever you make up, something more incredible always pops up in real life.
My children were brought up with their grandparents, and I was brought up with my grandparents. I think the continuity of moving through life together gives people a certain pride and sense of security.
I'd gone through the ups and downs and curveballs that life throws at you. I found writing to be very therapeutic and it helped me with a lot of the stuff I was going through.
Smokey and The Bandit was just a lark. All we did was run up and down those Georgia roads wrecking cars and having the time of our life.
Health-wise, I couldn't have said what my life expectancy would've been if I'd just carried on doing solid blocks of stand-up.
