There is a worst part, and it is this: we spend more time with each other than we do with our wives and children, and we work very long hours – we work non-stop – so when we need to shut off, we need to be separate, or else we – or else we just slip into our work mode.

No, I don’t autograph blank slips, checks, or stickers, and certainly no books without me in them.
I have a couple of go-to sneakers off the pitch. I like to have shoes that I can slip on and wear with anything. I travel often, so it’s about finding those two or three pairs of shoes that can go with any outfit, whether they go with leggings or a skirt or a dress or jeans.

I married a woman who’s not going to take anything. No slips. She’s very accountable, and she holds me very accountable.
If the ’80s were about Christian Lacroix ball gowns, the ’90s give us wealthy women who either go to work or pretend to, and want office suits or slip dresses they can wear to dinner parties – ergo, the minimalism of Prada, Jil Sander, and others. But this is minimalism that comes at maximal prices.
I really do try to watch everything I say. Because one little tiny slip, and it’s like the world is coming to an end!

I got into acting for the chance to be many different people and many different characters. I love hiding in a role and doing the research. If there is an opportunity to change my body, I will change my body. I’ll slip in and disguise myself in a role. That is a really big treat for me.
As a story writer, you have work with sharp but relatively small tools, the picks of metaphor, the shovel blade of images, the trowel of point of view, and then you delicately lift and brush in the revision with love and care knowing that one slip, and you might damage an extremely delicate thing.
I noticed this process of waking, and predicted with terrifying logic that one of these years not far away I would be awake continuously and never slip back, and never be free of myself again.
Samsung has drastically altered the rule that big screens mean huge phones. Even this smaller of the new Galaxy S models has a larger screen than the biggest iPhone, but it’s much narrower and easier to hold and to slip into a pocket.
It is therapeutic for me to act, to be able to slip into somebody else’s skin, and know it’s not you, but know that you bring a lot of yourself to it. At times in my life it’s provided me with a lot of confusion. It’s also provided me with a lot of discovery.

One thing that is clear to me: as a society, we put way too much emphasis on a slip of paper – that college diploma.
Just as playgrounds didn’t even make the priority list of most of those responding to Katrina, they all too often slip off the radar of those building our schools, designing our neighborhoods, and drafting government budgets.

Anybody who has a career is going to have to deal with a rumor in their time, or something that usually isn’t true. I have a great team behind me and a family that supports me. I just care too much about my career. I have been working too long to let it slip away for something stupid.
In practice, the ocean is the world’s wildest place because of both its fearsome natural danger and how easy it is out there to slip from the boundaries of law and civilization that seem so firm ashore.
