The laws of nature are structured so that we grow and change, and get to experience the full spectrum of biological existence.

Death is simply a break in our linear stream of consciousness.

Nothing has existence unless you, I, or some living creature perceives it, and how it is perceived further influences that reality. Even time itself is not exempted from biocentrism.

Religion and science look at reality differently.

Time is not an absolute reality but an aspect of our consciousness.

Modern science cannot explain why the laws of physics are exactly balanced for animal life to exist.

Without consciousness, space and time are nothing.

That's absolutely correct and in addition to that life just isn't an accident of the laws of physics. There's a long list of experiments that suggest just the opposite.

We don't have time to wait for President Bush to change his mind. How many breakthroughs have been missed as a result of this policy?

Our linear concept of time means nothing to nature.

We have failed to protect science against speculative extensions of nature, continuing to assign physical and mathematical properties to hypothetical entities beyond what is observable in nature.

Some people walk into our lives and leave footprints on our hearts. Others walk into our lives and we want to leave footprints on their face!

I've started films like Miami Vice where I'm in really good shape and I look back on that film and see the moustache is bigger as I've got a larger face.

As a child, we couldn't afford holidays overseas, so instead I travelled through books. I was inspired by Dr Dolittle and Tarzan.

I want to win a gold medal in London.

I'd like to do a tour with a bunch of people where it's just them and their guitars. It would be like Lilith Fair - only everyone plays alone, and it would be competitive.

The key to a good life is finding things that you want to master.

Yes, I am a good singer.

On everything you need to hear other people's opinions. It's the only way to do things. You ask a friend's advice and then between the two of you things somehow get clearer.

I was a lawyer for 10 years, and when youre in law, things really have to get done, or somebody sues you. Its a great trick.

There is good and there is bad in every human heart, and it is the struggle of life to conquer the bad with the good.
