I'm training myself to go back to the way I used to record before electronic programs.

Identity politics are becoming less important since culture's being blended into one big thing - I look at kids' Tumblrs and they're all into the same things.

I've always thought that reviews and knowing how much your fans appreciate or don't like something, that's the sugar coating. I'm trying not to think about those things.

I'm not worried about repeating myself - I'm more worried that I'd just get bored.

The essence is HIS presence.

You should be aware that anywhere that a ground rod is installed, that there may be AC voltage/current/frequency in the vicinity of it.

In nature there is less death and destruction than death and transmutation.

I am the slave of an internal power more powerful than my education.

Memory never recaptures reality. Memory reconstructs. All reconstructions change the original, becoming external frames of reference that inevitably fall short.

To me the purpose of art is to produce something alive...but with a separate, and of course one hopes, with an everlasting life of its own.

I don't mind when I hit a ball in the woods. I think of it as an adventure. That's when golf really starts to get interesting.

the most successful marriages were always based on both partners feeling that they had done rather well for themselves.

There's nothing wrong with being a pretty girl, because you want to be, desirable. There's nothing wrong with that, but you should have a plan B even if that is getting pregnant by a rich dude.
