I’ve always felt that the obligation of teachers is to have a huge, broad overview and to provide a foundation course to the students. The long view of history is absolutely crucial.

When I cleaned up some 17 odd years ago, I felt terrible for about six months. The only thing that gave me any real relief was strenuous physical activity.

I was approached by Oxfam to go to Mali as their ambassador and get involved in their various initiatives out there. But I felt that was missing the point of using me, a musician.

You know that thing when you’re not asleep but you’re not awake, and you can’t move your body? I had that kind of nightmare, and I felt like all my teeth were crumbling in my...

And I’ve always felt comfortable certainly in a courtroom because you’re just performing. And there was a time in my life when I thought when I grew up I’d be a trial lawyer myself.

I realised that I had always been writing things that other people wanted me to write and not what I really wanted to write, so I felt like I was losing my way.

I felt tight from the beginning of the match to the end. I couldn’t relax.

I felt deep within me that the highest point a man can attain is not Knowledge, or Virtue, or Goodness, or Victory, but something even greater, more heroic and more despairing: Sacred Awe!” – The...

Whenever I was on the podium, it felt weird. I was obviously happy to have done well, but it wasn’t truly happy from the bottom of my heart.

My music, I feel, has always been experimental, but it had got to a point where I felt disconnected from it completely. I didn’t want to be a Clark Kent/Superman: I couldn’t really say, ‘Well,...

I know other actors who are relieved when their shows get cancelled, and I’ve never felt that way about ‘Community.’

I’d always felt a man should marry later in life.

I’ve always felt like I can dance.

Never before has a civilization reached such a degree of a contempt for life; never before has a generation, drowned in mortification, felt such a rage to live.

The issue of the Betrayal was so central to that, I felt the need to comment upon it. My choices were to ignore the games and put them ‘outside’ of continuity or to integrate them....

When I was 16, 17, 18 years old, I felt like I had seen it all and done it all, and I was really kind of negative about everything.

A man’s sadness can only be felt and fully experienced by him alone, others can look on and think.

I wrote what I felt I had to write, and I’m willing to put my own sanity and my reputation behind it.

I was always free because I felt free. It’s very important to be free inside. The most important thing is to feel free.

On record dates like that I never felt too nervous because everything was really overdubbed. When we did that album, we were in the studio for probably a week, so you had a lot of...

It’s a pity that I can never really enjoy my movies because, after the mixing, your capacity as a spectator just disappears. I have to think about what I felt just before the mixing.

I’d rather play a tune on a horn, but I’ve always felt that I didn’t want to train myself. Because when you get a train, you’ve got to have an engine and a caboose. I...

A lot of people I went to college with felt like they wanted to pursue theater exclusively, so I don’t think that I really was in competition with people that I went to school with.

The producers felt that 24 would be good for the audience, to really get to know who these 12 and 12 are.

Fortunately, I was supposed to look confused and disoriented because, God, I felt that way.

I always thought of photography as a naughty thing to do – that was one of my favorite things about it, and when I first did it, I felt very perverse.
