We don’t have an eternity to realize our dreams, only the time we are here.

When I went around promoting ‘Crumb,’ there would be days I’d wake up in, like, Houston or Cleveland, and I’d step outside the hotel and get no idea where I was. It all looks the...

I cannot assume emotions I do not feel, and must describe Jerusalem as I found it. Since being here, I have read the accounts of several travellers, and in many cases the devotional rhapsodies –...

Cheney is a terrorist. He terrorizes our enemies abroad and innocent citizens here at home indiscriminately.

I had to jump around in the arts for a while just to survive. I earned a little money here and there, playing the guitar at union meetings, functions. I sold some science-fiction stories. I...

At a festival, a lot of people came to see other artists, so you have to put on a signature set and performance: ‘This is what I do, this is why I’m here.’ At solo...

In this case we’re building a corner to stretch a fence and hang a gate. It had a real purpose in the ranch here. I needed to do this. But at the same time, it...

I’ve had fans come and knock on my door. I’m usually polite, but I’m usually very direct and say, ‘It’s not cool that you come here uninvited.’

Dallas is an extraordinary place in it’s own right. The first thing about Dallas that you can’t get away from, particularly when I arrived, you’ve got no idea of the heat in this place. It’s...

What will the U.S. senators have to say if there is, as many over here and in the rest of the world suspect, no substance to the allegations against my father and me?

I don’t want the big flashing lights and red carpet, like, ‘Here comes another Bon Iver album!’ I just want it to be my bedroom-y thing. But that’ll take a while to figure out.

All pro sports, as well as the NCAA, should thank God every day we have sports betting here… We have the only agency in the world that regulates the honesty of games.

And also I assert our interest in respecting all our obligations and implementing all our commitments. And will save no effort whatever to protect this newborn opportunity of peace, that is provided through what we...

Jude has a very different character. It is not the cradle of Christianity, or of the assembly on earth: it is its decay and its death here below. It does not keep its first estate.

But I think it’s also hard to get into soccer here. I think purely on a time level on television as well because of the ad breaks. It’s something to do with that as well....

Everything I need to know, I learned in Iowa. I grew up here in Iowa.

I’m all for awkward, frank, sometimes painful conversations about things that give everyone a better perspective on who they are in the here and now, and how they want to proceed from there.

I think the intelligent thing about it is that you have to carefully listen to it all to grasp it, and because I’m not in every scene – colossal disappointment to everybody that it may...

Once I realized I wanted live in New York, I saved enough money that I wouldn’t have to get a job right away. That was important to me, to focus on acting; I didn’t want...

I worked in three local news markets and in every single one of them, they said: ‘You’re a lousy anchor. We would love to renew your contract and have you be our lead reporter here,...

My sister and I were born in San Francisco. When our parents died, we came down here to live with relatives.

The project to settle Palestinians here will be never be approved during my tenure regardless of the price.

We’ve supported the U.S. every step of the way. The Philippines was the first government in Asia after September 11, in fact, the night of September 11; it was nighttime for us then. It was...

The mercy caravans are through there the medicine refugees flowing out. It makes the United States look very bad here. And much more like an occupation force than it did before.

Here’s the problem: I don’t like who I’ve become when my iPhone is within reach. I find myself checking e-mails and responding to texts throughout the day with some kind of Pavlovian ferocity – it’s...

I think any real one-sheet for an album would say, ‘Well, here’s what I’ve been doing.’ And that would be it.

In Canada, you can’t even have a barbecue in your backyard without being attacked by a moose or even a grizzly bear. Then again, the grizzlies don’t beat anyone here in Vancouver; oh, it’s true,...

There is nothing here that’s broken that can’t be fixed, but it won’t happen on its own. It’s going to require a huge lift by the entire country of the United States of America and...

The planet will survive. Whether we get to be here and enjoy it, or enjoy life as we’ve known it, is what’s questionable.

It will be difficult to finish my career here. I don’t know if I am going to end it at Barcelona, although I would like to. I don’t know what is going to happen.

Onstage, even though you’re here together with the other actor, face-to-face, playing out the scene, you also have that other ear pointed out toward the audience and how they’re listening. That informs a lot.

The big missing part of the jig-saw is to get the assembly back up and running here in Northern Ireland, to get shared government back in business, that is my objective, and we await the...

As much as I’m enjoying stuff out here in Hollywood, I will always think of myself as a comic-book writer who does film and television, not a film and TV writer who occasionally does comics.
