When you have a history with me of being disrespectful, spiteful, and unapologetic, then you will be shown the nearest exit to the left.
I think I lived those years very impersonally. It was almost as though I had erected someone outside myself who was the president’s wife. I was lost somewhere deep down inside myself. That is the way I felt and worked until I left the White House.
Every musician, their goal in life is to play music that people love, and I’ve accomplished my goal. I was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and left that chapter of my life and those people in the past. Good and bad, I’ve loved and am thankful for that chapter.
There were no jobs created in America from 1945, when the war ended, through 2003. How could there be? Taxes were too high. Preposterously so under Eisenhower, Kennedy, Nixon, Reagan (who left office with a 28 percent rate on long-term capital gains) and Bush the Elder.
Anyone who spends time on the road knows there’s something special about being in the middle of Utah or Nebraska – you sit with it, and there’s a peace about it. You can go left or right, and it opens up all kinds of doors. You take your own path.

I left the entertainment industry part of my life behind in 1983, when we decided not to work with major record companies anymore.
‘Kung Fu’ was never cancelled; I just left. I decided I had enough of it, and I thought I should do a movie right away, because I think when you leave a television series, it’s important that you establish the fact that you’re a movie actor really quickly, or you might never get that chance.
Simplicity is an acquired taste. Mankind, left free, instinctively complicates life.
I’m no spring chicken. The same arthritis that ate up my left hip that finally got replaced hasn’t stopped there… And touring is a lot of work. I’m impressed when I see people like Eric Clapton out there. Gee whiz, Eric, give me a break! I know it’s gotta hurt somewhere.
I’m always trying to do stuff I haven’t done before or challenge myself so I’m not resting on my laurels all of the time because if I just found my little niche and never left it, I’d be pretty boring, I think.
The more people who are dependent on government handouts, the more votes the left can depend on for an ever-expanding welfare state.
It would be cool to be invisible, but I’m afraid of what people would say about me if they didn’t know I was there. Some things are better left unknown.
I’m a little bit nervous for us with all of this electronically generated new hyper-space that we’ve moved into, where not only people but also economies and systems, like banking, are left to zeros and ones. I want to be more than a zero or one.

What of soul was left, I wonder, when the kissing had to stop?
When I left Manchester I just took that as a challenge – to try to prove people wrong. And when you do, there is no better feeling than that. I knew in my gut it was the right time to move and I just believed.
To me, the greatest invention of my lifetime is the laptop computer and the fact that I can be working on a book and be in an airport lounge, in a hotel room, and continue working; I fire up my laptop, and I’m in exactly the same place I was when I left home – that, to me, is a miracle.
When I left Facebook, I left an enormous amount of equity on the table. I thought, ‘I don’t want to be a slave to money. I want to be a slave to something bigger: an ambition, a goal.’
Fame and success and titles stay with you, but they wear out eventually. In the end, all that you are left with is your character.

When people say, you know, ‘Good teacher,’ ‘Prophet,’ ‘Really nice guy’… this is not how Jesus thought of Himself. So you’re left with a challenge in that, which is either Jesus was who he said he was or a complete and utter nut case. You have to make a choice on that.
I’m not going to be the rock star of the far right and frankly on the rock star of the far left.

Shinji Kagawa is one of the best players in the world, and he now plays 20 minutes at Manchester United – on the left wing! My heart breaks. Really, I have tears in my eyes. Central midfield is Shinji’s best role.
Just before I left Dundee United, I captained them for one game, although I think that was maybe to keep me there!
I had a project for my life which involved 10 years of wandering, then some years of medical studies and, if any time was left, the great adventure of physics.
The chips are in production, the machines aren’t. So we’ve got a little bit of work left to do.
In ‘Purab Aur Paschim,’ there’s one of the nicer patriotic scenes which is patriotic without going jingoistic. There’s a scene set in a rotating restaurant, where Pran, who has left India, is completely running India down and Manoj Kumar is taking up for India. And there’s that song ‘Jab Zero Diya.’
The things that come to those that wait may be the things left by those that got there first.

I never said, ‘I want to be alone.’ I only said, ‘I want to be left alone.’ There is all the difference.
I’d be satisfied just coaching in high school. I turned down a number of colleges when I was teaching in South Bend, Indiana, before I went into the service. I honestly believe that if I hadn’t enlisted in the service, I would never have left high school teaching. I’m sure I would have never left.
Just cause you got the monkey off your back doesn’t mean the circus has left town.
Everyone, left to his own devices, forms an idea about what goes on in language which is very far from the truth.

Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.
Power and violence are opposites; where the one rules absolutely, the other is absent. Violence appears where power is in jeopardy, but left to its own course it ends in power’s disappearance.
