Happy new year everbody! And remember: be kind to eachother.

I'd like to think that the boring lady who's talking to me now is a lot sexier and more interesting than the one who's doing NPR. You know, studious and reserved, and - I bet you're a lot of fun at a party.

In time of war, if you go through a bad neighborhood, I don't want a little French poodle, I want a Rottweiler on my hands.

I fly economy. I do often fly first class, but I don't travel with a posse, or bodyguard, or an assistant.

You need to eat, but you don't really need to eat filet mignon every night or buy bottles of champagne at a thousand a pop.

I'm in a weird band. We've done very well. The American Dream is alive and well.

By and large, Americans close their ears to anything not in English. That's stupid because there's some great music around the world that we should be listening to.
