I'm not intelligent enough to be a doctor, and kind of hands down you can't argue with the worth of that. But I don't really have an opinion about the worth of making art.

I like Scottish people because they feel very true. They're always level and straight. They get a reputation for being hardened because of it, but I find them to be scrupulously honest people.

I'm a terrible dancer.

I think that what drives most of us as human beings is the want for something. You might have a hope, or a big dream, or a goal that you haven't yet achieved.

Edinburgh is so cultural and such a beautiful place to walk around.

The image of all the cars leaving pastel-colored people at the same time has never really left me as an anti-ambition for life!

I really admire artists who take the time to recharge their batteries and not continually call on it. I think you can spot tired and jaded artists quite quickly.

You've got to try and not let it keep you down. Sure, let it hurt but don't let it harm you.

When life kicks you in the teeth and knocks you down to the ground. Are you able to stand up and keep fighting?! That’s what it’s all about.

People who have undergone a loss get a fair amount of leeway on their behavior.

It is evident that in the period designated as that of the kings, when Rome commenced her career of conquest, she was, for that time and country, a great and wealthy city.

Our ignorance of history causes us to slander our own times. The ordinary person today lives better than a king did a century ago but is ungrateful!

Unless both sides win, no agreement can be permanent.

I perfectly feele even at my fingers end.

I had a new idea on the way to this meeting this morning, but that doesn't mean we should put it in the platform.
