Write every day. Don’t kill yourself. I think a lot of people think, ‘I have to write a chapter a day’ and they can’t. They fall behind and stop doing it.

The first review our band ever got – when I was 17 years old and we had just released our first EP, and this tiny little magazine wrote a review on it, and for that month, we were the best album of the month, and we were also the worst album of the month.

I met India Arie, who is one of my favorite artists of all time. It was really sweet; I was broken up with a month before, and she stayed up texting me all night and was helping me through it. Her text message looks like a song of hers. She’s sort of become my fairy godmother.
By the time I got to set for ‘Cobra,’ I think I’d lost about 28 pounds in about a month and a half. I didn’t want to look back and be like, ‘Wow, someone should stop eating PB and J’s.’ Like, if I’m going to look back when I’m 80, I wanted to be like, ‘Wow, okay, I looked pretty fit. I used my youth right.’

One day, I went to meet a film producer and entered the wrong flat. It was a casting agency, and they suggested that I audition for a four-hero Telugu film. I was confirmed a month later. Interestingly, it’s not easy down South for a newcomer to bag positive roles, but I was adamant.

I get a lot of letters. Not only from children but from adults, too. Almost every week, every month, clippings come in from some part of the world where ducks are crossing the street.

My mom always taught me to put toothpaste on pimples to dry them out at night. I do that all the time. I don’t use anything fancy when I get a pimple. And I never use the same toothpaste for long because I get bored. So I’ll do peppermint and then one month I’ll do cinnamon. I’m creative.

‘Sister Act’ was my first audition out of school. I was 21 and cast as the understudy. It was non-Equity, so I lived in L.A. on $300 a week.

Often when I finish a film I’ll have that feeling inside me: ‘I never want to do this ever again. I don’t want to pretend anymore. I want to be myself and do that.’ And then, thank God, that feeling goes away after a month or so and I’m raring to go again.
As a kid, I harbored this fantasy of starting a company. I looked at the entrepreneur column in Forbes. I looked at it every month and thought, ‘I want to be that guy.’

I had someone call me this morning telling me they had somebody who would only work a certain number of hours a week because if they worked too many hours a week then they couldn’t get their government assistance.

I just want to tell you what it’s like not to have Planned Parenthood… you have to give your kids Ramen noodles at the end of the month to fill up their little bellies so they won’t cry. You have to give them mayonnaise sandwiches. They get very few fruits and vegetables because they’re expensive.
Some couples go over their budgets very carefully every month. Others just go over them.

I started watching English news channels and would repeat after the anchor. Since coaching classes were expensive, I joined a call centre where, after undergoing training for a month, I quit. I followed this strategy in 15 BPOs. I could earn money and learn English at the same time.
Your to-do list should include items that need to be accomplished for the month, the week, and each day. You must then ask yourself how much time you need to block off to achieve each task.

I don’t have any interest in being a chef without being on the business side of things, or vice versa, because if you don’t make money at the end of the month, you’re going out of business.
Within my second month of being in L.A., I booked my first audition. It was, like, a co-star on a show called ‘Gang Related.’ I got cut out of it.

I don’t like this kind of life where every month you are faced with some kind of a coup.
I think it’s important to relax in general. I don’t try to save up my relaxing for one month period of the year; it’s kind of a daily practice that I’ve tried to remain aware of.

When you’re in a band, you spend most of your time in a van. Like, there were four of us, we toured all the time, and you’re stuck looking at three other people for a month straight. And all of those times, we all just liked making fun of people, doing impressions of people, coming up with songs.
I hated being a flight attendant. I did it for a month and then quit.
I visited 20 countries while I was pregnant. I had to stop after my seventh month.

It’s virtually impossible for most sites to do a billion page views in a month or even a year.
Maybe they’ll start making serialized movies. I watched the first couple seasons of ’24’ and it’s really fun. I bought the DVD and watched it over a month or so and it’s great. It’s like reading a novel. It has a lot of possibilities that are more difficult to accomplish with a film.
Right now, I’m worth a million dollars, and I owe Uncle Sam a million-and-a-half dollars, and I made a deal with him. I said, ‘Uncle Sam, I’m going to pay you 25 grand a month.’
I grew up in a house full of books, and we belonged to the Country Lending Service – each month the State Library would send us a parcel of books by train.
The directors thought, They understand nothing in the real economy, in real life. They read some stupid books, and they came from the moon to the earth, and maybe in one month they will disappear.

A couple of days out of the month, I talk to my stylist, and we just get a big chunk of looks that’ll last me a while.
After about a month of living on my own, I began to feel it. I bought some plants. I remember I named one of them Penelope, and I would talk to her and water her every day. Apparently, I over-watered her, and she died. That’s when I knew I needed a roommate. So I got one.
I went to Carnegie Mellon for a year and a month or two, and then I dropped out because I got a movie. I didn’t anticipate ever leaving school – I was a really serious drama student – and then that happened, and my life sort of took a turn.

It was a nightmare having cameras in the house 10 hours a day for a month.
January is always a good month for behavioral economics: Few things illustrate self-control as vividly as New Year’s resolutions. February is even better, though, because it lets us study why so many of those resolutions are broken.
I got dumped off ‘The Iron Lady’ a month before they started shooting, and then they brought two new writers on. Then I was brought back on again. I’m just a bit of a rubber ball. I just bounce back.
We have stabilized our economy. We took over a very sick economy, and we were hemorrhaging 750,000 jobs a month. We have stopped the hemorrhaging. In fact, we had 140,000 job growth last month. And that’s what I call progress.
If the Democrats want to insult women by making them believe that they are helpless without Uncle Sugar coming in and providing for them a prescription each month for birth control because they cannot control their libido or their reproductive system without the help of the government, then so be it.

To be honest, I would probably rather spend, like, a month in prison than spend a month rehearsing with some musicians, metalheads. I pick prison over that, really. And I say that knowing well what prison is like, so don’t get me wrong here. Prison sucks big time.
Sometimes I get kind of bored if I go like a month or so and I’m not doing anything. At first I’m like, ‘Cool, I’ll have a little time off and I’ll get to hang out with friends,’ but then after a little while goes by I’m like, ‘Oh,’ and I really wish that I could go back and start doing work again.
My knee is as strong as it was before, if not stronger, and it’s a matter of getting my leg strong. I lost six years of strength in about six month’s time, so it’s going to take another year or two to get that leg back up to full strength, but I’m good to go so far.
I dream for a living. Once a month the sky falls on my head, I come to, and I see another movie I want to make.

My culture-deprived, aspirational mother dragged me once a month from our northern suburb – where the word art never came up – to the Art Institute of Chicago. I hated it.

A government program helps for a month, but a good-paying career helps a family for generations.
In 2010, I proposed that Congress take its first pay cut in 77 years, and my effort had bipartisan support. And as part of leading by example, I returned 5 percent of my paycheck every month to pay down the debt.
If women are supposed to be less rational and more emotional at the beginning of our menstrual cycle when the female hormone is at its lowest level, then why isn’t it logical to say that, in those few days, women behave the most like the way men behave all month long?

I want to go to Denmark and Scandinavia. We’ve been inundated with their telly recently, and I’ve never been to any of those countries. I really want to get to know the people. I quite fancy living there for a bit if I could take a month off. They just seem like upfront, friendly folk.
I’m an emotional gangster. I cry once every month.
At least the rap metal stuff is good, but it’s not really my bag. I’ve been listening to the radio since we’ve been touring the past month, because we don’t get it most of the time.
There’s not just playing on a Saturday and you receiving your money at the end of the month. There’s so, so much more to football than what people see. My agent told me when I was 15, 16, ‘you can have all the ability in the world but if you’re not mentally strong enough football will swallow you up.’
You know, 600,000 millionaires get a Social Security check every month. I think there’s enough waste and inefficiency.

For an hour every day, I did something. I was on the elliptical or the treadmill, and if someone asked me to go to a class – whether it was spinning, boxing, yoga, you name it – I went. By the end of the month, I felt so good, I just kept going. I didn’t want to lose my momentum.

When it comes to birthdays, I think there are two camps. There are people like me, who choose to treat it like any other day, and then there are the ‘birthday people.’ You know, those people who claim the full month in which they were born as their own.
Real golf is the 20 million people who play once a week or once a month.
Let me tell you, writing comics is as hard as anything I’ve ever done – for me, at least. I’m now officially in awe of guys who can crank out multiple books a month and maintain a high level of quality. Comics are completely different than any other medium I’ve dabbled in.
Listen to the silence. Listen to your life. Be present, not just think about what’s going on next week, next month.

I think the focus of the media changes. At the moment the more electronic stuff like trip-hop was the flavor of the month, just a little while ago. It all depends on the angle, from which point of view you see it.
You can have X amount of pounds in your bank every month, but if you’re not happy, and you’re not finding peace in what you’re doing, it doesn’t really matter.

For me, I’ve learned if I want a very stable, normal relationship, where I’ll be like, ‘Okay, this is nice, I know what’s going to happen in a month,’ it’s probably better to date outside the industry. But you can’t help who you fall for. It’s our dating pool.
This is a ridiculous heat wave we’re in right now, and to contribute, Newt Gingrich said that for the entire month of June, he will stop blowing hot air.
So we take a lot of pride in that. It’s really on us to turn this thing around. I think this last month we’ve done just that. We’ve pointed ourself in the direction that we want to be, and I think we’re starting to head towards that. Right now we’re in a nice rhythm.
When my ‘Scientific American’ arrives every month, I read it cover to cover.

My first month in syndication, I made about $100. I thought it would be exciting if I ever got up to the level where I could pay my rent.

You don’t choose a party because it’s the flavour of the month. I feel I will be able to work under a political system. I feel if people like me don’t enter politics to bring change, who will?

When I heard the news that Steve Jobs had died, my mind flashed back to 1985, when I began my love affair with computers.

In the month of December, it was my ultimate mission to find and honor the special people in my cities and provide them with experiences they would never forget.

Those things that you just do, if you put that together in a DVD program, let’s say, for $97, to teach people how to do that. Well, if you sold 100 of those a month, that’s $9,700 of income a month just teaching what you already do and know to people who want to learn how to do the same.
When you’re on a football scholarship, you get a stipend that’s supposed to cover your rent and a few incidentals. It was $360 a month. This was the late 1980s, and the NCAA has an interesting rule where you’re not allowed to supplement your income with a part-time job.
I was a freelancer all through my twenties. I did about one story a month and I wanted to write fiction, so the stories that I would do were precursors to ‘Sex and the City.’
What’s funny is that by the time everyone plays the game – you know, we finish it, and then it takes a long time to make copies and ship it and get on the shelves – we probably haven’t worked on it for a month, two months. So, we’ve already taken our break, and then we’re on to the next thing.
These people are headstrong and if they feel the curb loosed but one link they will with bit in the teeth in one month run further out of the career of good order than they will be brought back in three months.
I joined Alcatrazz a month after I recorded ‘Steeler.’ The big difference between Steeler and Alcatrazz is that in Alcatrazz, I wrote the songs. When I went to the Alcatrazz audition, they had no songs and no direction. They also had a questionable drummer.

What you have to remember is that baseball isn’t a week or a month but a season – and a season is a long time.

I felt (a) it was a great role and (b) I wanted to stay in town. I wanted to stop going to these four month and five month gigs up in Toronto or Montreal or Vancouver or down in Mexico. I wanted to be around my son, Max. This came along and I was like, ‘I really want to play this guy!’
I’m not able to go in with an act that I use month to month year to year all the time. It’s constantly evolving and changing and that keeps me on my toes but certainly adds to the challenge.
I have a house here in California and come back every month and a half to see my kids. And they come to New York.
Every August, I go away for four weeks to a place in Michigan. I work in the mornings, spend the month in shorts and flip-flops. It gives me time to think like an investor and come back in September for some heavy planning.
Sometimes you do a sound installation, and the first day or two it is very exciting. Then you are hearing this every day for a month, and it becomes like a torture.

Most of the moments of our life – and I calculated, you know, the psychological present is said to be about three seconds long; that means that, you know, in a life there are about 600 million of them; in a month, there are about 600,000 – most of them don’t leave a trace.
You gotta know when it’s your time. You might wake up one day like, ‘Damn, I just feel good,’ but you’ve been feeling like that for a whole month. That’s your season.

A friend at school was always being laughed at because his father emptied dustbins for a living. But those who laughed worshipped famous footballers.
