People are not very pro-active in general, I think, because we are too busy rushing blindly towards our own goals.

Don't convince yourself you're over, don't convince yourself you're done, just because the things around you seem heavy, doesn't mean you can't get off this ground.

What in the world would I sing for if I had it all?

I don't want to die, obviously, but really, the wonder of life is amplified by the fact that it ends.

We give the podium to a lot of people who shouldn't have the podium. The message that's delivered the loudest and in the most entertaining way is the one that we're going to put on because that's what we want. We want ratings more than we want to deliver information. That's just where the culture's gotten.

Every day things change, but basically they stay the same.

In many instances, we are much better at fixing our mistakes after we've made them. In some situations, it is easier to sweep things under the rug and forget about them.
