I don’t want people to spend their nights worrying about getting hit by asteroids. But I do want them to encourage their political leaders to invest in the insurance, which will allow us to prevent it from happening.
Where I grew up – I grew up on the north side of Akron, lived in the projects. So those scared and lonely nights – that’s every night. You hear a lot of police sirens, you hear a lot of gunfire. Things that you don’t want your kids to hear growing up.
The crowd is a performer. En masse, a crowd has its own personality, its own character. And there are going to be nights when the crowd delivers a great performance. And there are going to be nights when the crowd bombs.

For the first time in my life I tried whale. It was very chewy and quite fatty. My friend had had whale before, so I knew it would be quite blubbery. It was delicious. I loved it. It was smoked, so it had a lovely kind of tangy taste to it. We had it a couple of nights. I was won over. It was very yummy.
I have had my fair share of nights out.

There used to be times when I used to be bothered about box office, director, producer, the actress… If those ticks were marked, I used to say ‘yes’ to a film. Later on, my focus absolutely changed. Now if a character stays with me for two to three nights, I say ‘yes’ to the film.
I find the term ‘workaholic’ to be distasteful because it reminds me of the harried-looking lawyers I recall chained to their desks through nights and weekends during my lawyer days years ago.

There are certain nights you and your image just aren’t in the same bed.
My parents went out of their way for me ever since I left school. When I was 15, I said to Mum, ‘I’m leaving school,’ and she was like, ‘Okay.’ I joined a cover band and played three nights a week, and they were really supportive of that.

Warming and nourishing bowls of food are something I love wrapping my hands around when the cold nights drawn in.
Where I grew up in the middle of Georgia, hip-hop is king, and on Friday and Saturday nights, local DJs do mixes. It’s a great mix of local stuff and then some of the bigger hits and remixes of the hits, and it just has this nice flow with a dirty-South sound to everything.

A lot of nights, and dinners, start like this: some panicked chopping of whatever vegetables I had the foresight to buy, a sheet pan, and my countertop convection oven.
I have self-doubt. I have insecurity. I have fear of failure. I have nights when I show up at the arena and I’m like, ‘My back hurts, my feet hurt, my knees hurt. I don’t have it. I just want to chill.’ We all have self-doubt. You don’t deny it, but you also don’t capitulate to it. You embrace it.
I went to Fulham for the project they explained to me – but it didn’t really work out. I might have been playing at a high level for the national team, but I was starting to miss those European nights and challenging for titles.
Most nights I end up wearing a wife beater T-shirt and boxers.
During my second draft pass on my last book I made 20,000 words happen in a week, which is practically supernatural for me, and it would never have been possible without three nights in a hotel in my own city.
We’ve had those experiences as a band and you fast forward to just the crazy rock ‘n’ roll nights, where you’d try to outlast each other and see who could drink the most. Fast forward to now and it really is amazing and nice how family-friendly Vegas has become.

I went to a performance-art high school, and a teacher there was signing me up for open-mic nights at the comedy club. I think about it now, and I think, ‘Well, that may be inappropriate,’ but it was great!’

But would I give up the women and nights out for another year at United? Would that make me happy? Would that make me the person I am today? I’m not sure. I have no regrets. I went to United to win things and I achieved that.

Now on Friday nights, if I want to go hang out with friends, I go hang out with friends. If I want to stay in and be in the hot tub and have people over to watch movies, I do that.
I’ve never had one of those middle of the nights when I go, ‘Why me?’ or ‘I don’t know if I can keep fighting like this.’ No. Those thoughts don’t even enter my mind.
I take off my makeup with coconut oil some nights. It sounds like it would clog your pores, but I swear it’s saved my skin.
It’s Will Ferrell, he does Will Ferrell movies. But if you really look at it, he tries to do something different with each one, whether it’s an action cop movie like ‘The Other Guys’ or doing ‘Talladega Nights’ going into red state America or ‘Casa de Mi Padre’ or ‘Stranger Than Fiction,’ which is more of a drama.
