A lot of times in this business, we are taking advantage of hot times in our career to do a lot of TV and a lot of radio and that sort of thing, and George is able to be so humble that he can get away with not doing those things.

Nominations come and go. It is not going to happen to you every year, and I am very well aware of that

Never settle for the path of least resistance
