When I heard the idea of a Slayer wine, I tasted the wines they suggested for us. To be honest, I was a bit skeptical at first before I tasted it, but once I tried...

I saw Deep Purple live once and I paid money for it and I thought, ‘Geez, this is ridiculous.’ You just see through all that sort of stuff. I never liked those Deep Purples or...

Once an organization has a strong sense of mission, leaders can focus on trying new things.

My dad has some depressive issues, and he’s really tough on himself. So sometimes he can say things that are not super supportive. Like once I did a set, and he says, ‘Sheesh, no wonder...

There were times, sure, I wanted my career to go better. But once it starts to go downhill, you can never get back, or only to some degree.

The time has come to end the suffering and the plight of millions of Palestine refugees in the homeland and the Diaspora, to end their displacement and to realize their rights, some of them forced...

Once we agree on the future, the present will be much easier. A captain who does not know where he wants to sail, there is no wind on Earth that will bring him there. We...

Lawyers, I suppose, were children once.

Let us stop saying ‘white Americans’ and ‘colored Americans,’ let us try once and for all saying… Americans. Let human beings be equal on Earth as in Heaven.

I’m 53, and it’s hard to get to the gym every day. If I know on Friday I’m going to be wrestling, then I don’t want to look bad, so it gives me motivation. Plus,...
