Just once in a while let us exalt the importance of ideas and information.
Humans are distinguished from other species by a massive brain that enables us to imagine a future and influence it by what we do in the present. By using experience, knowledge and insight, our ancestors recognized they could anticipate dangers and o...
Food is meant to be used as fuel for our bodies. If you're using it for any other reasons, take a step back and ask yourself, 'What's up.'
I think that food ties us to our community and our traditions, and it's the thing that makes us feel good and connected.
I think the fame aspect, there was definitely a period when I had to get used to it. My family had to get used to it, too. It's exciting.

My mother used to go out on her own, and I used to have to keep a look out for my stepfather coming home.
If you use your imagination, you can look at any actress and see her nude... I hope to make you use your imagination.
I hope our wisdom will grow with our power, and teach us, that the less we use our power the greater it will be.
It is important for all of us to appreciate where we come from and how that history has really shaped us in ways that we might not understand.
I like crafts that come out of poverty or necessity. There used to be hobby shops where you'd get your supplies, and then you'd use your imagination.
Imagination allows us to escape the predictable. It enables us to reply to the common wisdom that we cannot soar by saying, 'Just watch!'
My dad used to ignore me when I was a kid. He couldn't stand my voice, so he just used to ignore me, and then he'd impersonate me.
