When you have a great idea, and don't rush it, things can work itself out.

Man, I wouldn't know where to begin on education reform, but one thing we have to do is add teacher accountability WITHOUT stressing standardized test scores.

I hate to sound like an old fuddy duddy, but the game has changed.

Teachers literally break down at the thought that if their students have a bad a test day, their job is on the line.

Many people think you shouldn't stop kids from being kids, and I agree, but no one wants the worst case scenario on their hands. Better safe than sorry I say.

Never have one kid in the room with you, and avoid situations that would look suspect to a passerby.

I was taught from a young age that as a teacher, especially a male, you are to never be alone with a female, or even a male student.

These kids know so much these days, and are bigger, stronger and quicker mentally. We just have to find out how to use it for good and not evil.

Kids are great in that they keep you on your toes. They're like a puzzle... in a blender, haha. You have to take the pieces out and try to put it together on the fly.

Anytime you have to sacrifice your art, or integrity, it's a bad deal, no matter what they're offering.

If you intend on building a solid career, it's best to not worry about the major label approach. It's a trade-off that most true artists shouldn't have to make.

If God meant for people to fly, He would have given them brains.

I'm not more than a musician that enjoys what he does and a Colombian that dreams and fights for peace in his country.

He's got an overall flair for the game. It looks to me like he really loves what he does and he can't wait to get up in the morning, go hit some balls and go play.

Human nature is not nearly as bad as it has been thought to be.

Politics is not a game for naive thinkers. You may go in as an idealist, but you certainly won't come out as one.

You get paid like a really good call girl. Walking offstage is like the walk of shame.

People in Nevada know me from the street to the ring to the Senate chambers. I've never had to prove my manhood to anyone.

Those who boast about being "brutally honest" are usually more brutal than honest.

Rock 'n' roll is about music. Music. Music. Music. It's not about you, it's not about me, it's not about Oasis. It's about the tunes.

Your work is the single greatest means at your disposal for expressing your social intelligence.
