Reorganization to me is shuffling boxes, moving boxes around. Transformation means that you're really fundamentally changing the way the organization thinks, the way it responds, the way it leads. It's a lot more than just playing with boxes.
I can take an opinion, but I don't like when you try and spew hate and contaminate the way other people think. I feel like I'm one of the people that's always made music for the common man. That's why I don't really live my life the way I could. I don't stunt as much as I could stunt, 'cause that's not who my music is for.
If you have passion, there is no need for excuses because your enthusiasm will trump any negative reasoning you might come up with. Enthusiasm makes excuses a nonissue.
You can either be a host to God, or a hostage to your ego. It's your call.
To be more childlike, you don't have to give up being an adult. The fully integrated person is capable of being both an adult and a child simultaneously. Recapture the childlike feelings of wide-eyed excitement, spontaneous appreciation, cutting loose, and being full of awe and wonder at this magnificent universe.
If I tell you a story, you can choose to believe me, or you can question it.
The upside to anger? Getting it out of your system. You got to express your anger. Then you have room for more positive things. If I hold something in a long time, and then I speak it, it's amazing how the light shines so much brighter.

The real joy is in constructing a sentence. But I see myself as an actor first because writing is what you do when you are ready and acting is what you do when someone else is ready.
With comedy, you have no place to go but more comedy, so you're never off the hook.
When you can't do something truly useful, you tend to vent the pent up energy in something useless but available, like snappy dressing.
The rainbow is a part of nature, and you have to be in the right place to see it. It's beautiful, all of the colors, even the colors you can't see. That really fit us as a people because we are all of the colors. Our sexuality is all of the colors. We are all the genders, races, and ages.
Flags say something. You put a rainbow flag on your windshield, and you're saying something.
If you're gonna make connections which are innovative, you have to not have the same bag of experiences as everyone else does.
For you to sleep well at night, the aesthetic, the quality, has to be carried all the way through.
If only your pure and clean mind could touch me, dear Haydn, nobody has a greater reverence for you than I have.
Be like a postage stamp. Stick to one thing until you get there.
You learn to cook so that you don't have to be a slave to recipes. You get what's in season and you know what to do with it.
I think one of the terrible things today is that people have this deathly fear of food: fear of eggs, say, or fear of butter. Most doctors feel that you can have a little bit of everything.
There was no precedent. If I asked somebody, 'What do you expect me to do?' they all looked blank. They had no idea; nobody had much idea.
