McVeigh's lawyer got him the death penalty, which, quite frankly, I could have done.
I've jumped out of an airplane 34 times. I've dove 212 feet under water. I've done a lot of things that defied death.
The most valuable of all education is the ability to make yourself do the thing you have to do, when it has to be done, whether you like it or not.
All around as a person, on right decisions, on holding your money, on doing your trade, a good education is a must. I don't think I would've done as good without an education.
If my career detour from special education to singing has done one thing, it has afforded me the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of others.
I know there are things I did in education that will never be reversed. I have not done that in film yet because I have only been here for about nine months.
The principle goal of education in the schools should be creating men and women who are capable of doing new things, not simply repeating what other generations have done.
All you've got to do is go back and look in the early 1900s and see what we had in Texas without public education and realize what it has done for the state.
When we imply that our works are for God and not our neighbor, we perpetuate the idea that God's love for us is dependent on what we do instead of on what Christ has done.
I mean, it's weird because people lately have been coming up to me and going, 'Oh, my God. '300' is huge.' I'm like, 'Really? It's not done yet!'
When I'm marketing a film, whether its mine or someone else's, I work with a great deal of strategy and elbow grease until the job is done.
The U.S. has done a great job improving productivity. We're making a lot more steel in Dearborn with fewer people. The unions have accepted much better work rules.
A lot of political music to me can be rather pedantic and corny, and when it's done right - like Bruce Springsteen or Jackson Browne or great satire from Randy Newman, there's nothing better.
A lot of actors say that theater's the thing for them. And that's great, and I'm not one to speak with any authority about it because of not having done it properly. For me, movies are what I love.
There are actresses who've had expensive work done and look great, so I'm not holier-than-thou about it. But it wouldn't be for me, perhaps because I've already been in hospital and wouldn't want to volunteer myself for it again.
If you look through history, all of the great work we've done in Congress has been around a table of compromise, when it comes to the most difficult problems.
They showed this one beautiful picture of me recently and they had all the things that I had done. I thought it was a great compliment for everybody to think I've had plastic surgery.
There is a great deal of work that can be done between the SDLP representing the Nationalist population and the Unionist Parties, and I believe we should set down to do that.
I've just done a film in the United States. It's a thriller called 'A Crime', with Harvey Keitel, we play against each other, and it's so great to play in another language. But I'm definitely not American.
It's a difficult task to deal with cities. But with some original ways of getting things done, with some basic commandments, you can really get cities to be a great, great place to live.
I'd never really done comedy before 'Community,' so getting to work day in and day out with all these great people, directors, writers, and actors, I feel like I've learned a lot.
