As far as feeling freedom in my career now versus five years ago… I think if I feel any more free it’s simply because of the experiences that I’ve had, and the wisdom I’ve accumulated from that time.
As far as I’m concerned, I prefer silent vice to ostentatious virtue.
We ought to fly away from earth to heaven as quickly as we can; and to fly away is to become like God, as far as this is possible; and to become like him is to become holy, just, and wise.
As far as Afghanistan is concerned, I’m not sure whether the United States and Pakistan have the same objectives. Pakistan would like Afghanistan to be under its control.
Perhaps… I mean there are people who defend that it as an art. I don’t. I like it but it’s not an art form as far as I’m concerned, and yet it’s a similar thing, once you can’t land those jumps, you’re disqualified – that precludes it from ever becoming a serious art form.
I grew up on my dad’s sets, but I was never star-struck or desperate to be famous. I grew up being a worker. It took me a long time to realise that my work ended up being seen by people. As far as I was concerned, I was just in the family business.
As far as action is concerned, our films have been coming up with some great sequences. In fact, I think Hollywood is copying Bollywood by getting their heroes to bash up 15 guys at a time.
I’ve always had a tendency to push the envelope as far as it can go without hurting someone’s feelings.
I don’t feel that I have to prove anything to anyone as far as what I’ve done in fighting.
I don’t think I make much of a distinction between the ‘real’ and the ‘fantastic.’ They both seem to be threads in the same cloth as far as I’m concerned.
As far as I’m concerned, being any gender is a drag.
As far as artists and musicians, they don’t retire. They might tour less.
I’m so lazy as far as liking to get up, go to the office in my pajamas, get dressed about noon. And I hate flying. So I have this really laid-back, good lifestyle, and it’s hard to nudge me out of it.
As far as film goes, I enjoy all Hollywood films and all Horror films like The Bride of Frankenstein, which also might be my favorite. I like 60’s and 70’s Italian and Spanish Horror films.
As far as the grunge thing, there are three bands from Seattle that I would call true grunge.
When you think about what the odds are to have four boys to not only be able to follow in the footsteps in a basketball career but to also be good in the secondary career as far as the broadcasting, it’s pretty remarkable.
You know, I think when people fly the nest a little too soon, as far as getting involved in movies, anything beyond the music can make it suffer, I just want to make sure that I’m not that guy.
But then all that died down and as far as casting was concerned it didn’t really matter that I had been on Broadway.
As far as a guy like Ray Lewis is concerned, you know he’s going to be around the ball all the time.
Because of the fact I look a lot younger than I really am, I think, I end up getting these girl-next-door roles. I mean, I’m not a Gemma Arterton type as far as I can tell.
As far as I was concerned, either I was a homosexual or I wasn’t, so making films would change nothing.
I’m quite a dreamy person but I’m also very realistic about my possibilities, so if this was meant to remain a hobby I would have kept it as that. But I feel like music goes in waves and when you get an upward swing, you have to push it as far as you can.
I’m not funny. Never have been and, as far as I can tell, I never will be.
As far as I’m aware, everybody in the shadow cabinet accepts that there’s a compelling case on climate change and a strong scientific case.
You don’t ever want to be a mechanical basketball player, but as far as technique and things, I like to have certain check points in my shot, certain things that I can count on and think about. It kind of helps me to be consistent.
As far as the Jets go, I’m competing to play. It will be a heated competition between Kellen and me, and I’m excited about that; I will do it in a respectful way. I have the utmost respect for him because he’s a great player. Whatever’s best for team will be best for the team and the coaches will decide.
I don’t have a dark side as far as there is, like, murder in my past, but yeah, I think I’m a pretty nice, easygoing guy.
As far as favorite ‘overall package’ record of all time, I’d have to say ‘My Girl’ by The Temptations. I like everything about it, not only the composition – but the arrangement, the production, the lead vocals, the background vocals, the horns, the strings. That one I listen to over and over again.
I regard the Klan, the Anglo-Saxon clubs and White American societies, as far as the Negro is concerned, as better friends of the race than all other groups of hypocritical whites put together.
As far as female vocalists, I love Heart, Joan Jett, Courtney Love, Laura Branigan, Linda Ronstadt, Barbra Streisand – or going back to when I was a child, Aileen Quinn, the original Annie.
Nobody has communicated with the public more than Lady Gaga. Ever. I trust the audience, and I’m very impressed. As far as they’re concerned, she’s part of their family. The only guy who ever did that was Bing Crosby, years ago.
I’m changing every day as far as this rap thing. I’m learning new things. I’m getting bigger by the day.
I haven’t looked at marriage in the conventional sense, as far as settling down. I look at it as putting faith in another person, which has always been hard for me to do.
Standing on soil feels so much different than standing on city pavement; it lets you look inward and reflect and see who you really are, while you see a beautiful, unspoiled land as far as the eye can see. It allows your inner life to grow.
Without any formal orders to retreat, what was left of the several organizations yielded to a general impulse to abandon the field. Officers and men became controlled by the one thought of getting as far as possible from the enemy.
I left rock and roll professionally at about 49. That’s too long as far as I’m concerned. Some people can do it; it depends on what you were.
Doing everything with one arm, being well-known, and having a book and a movie, it’s fairly abnormal. As far as just not having to worry about past experiences, I’ve healed very well.
I’ve always had this passion to be creative, and wanted to sing or be in bands and make music, but I didn’t have ideas as to what format it’d be, or how I’d do it. I’m not very good with plans. I didn’t think it would be me at the front, either. In fact, I’d go as far as saying that was something I’d prevent.
As far as I am concerned the paint is the person. I want it to work for me just as flesh does.
I think you’re kind of seeing the real me as far as seeing what I post on social media, because I am very much into cooking, and my dogs, and obviously my son, and my lifestyle in Santa Cruz is very laid-back.
I think different games have a different chemical release in your brain as far as reward goes. I like making puzzle games, just because I know I’m kinda good at it, and they really are superfun to work on.
There is an element of autobiography in all fiction in that pain or distress, or pleasure, is based on the author’s own. But in my case that is as far as it goes.
I have thought about Happy Days made into a movie. As far as the original cast not being a part of it, wow, I don’t know who could be who! I just don’t see it going in that direction. I can see the original cast doing the movie very easily though.
As far as vanity and wrinkles and things like that, that’s a part of life I don’t worry about. I put on creams, you know, but don’t go mad, and I don’t have any kind of treatments. I just live a healthy lifestyle. And staying happy, not getting negative and angry, I think that helps, looking at the positive of everything.
That attitude that fighting is probably not fair, but you have to defend yourself anyway and damage the enemy, has been profoundly consequential as far as my political activism goes.
I think Jennifer Lopez is a phenom. And as far as I’m concerned, she’s really a very smart businesswoman.
Most people have a passive relationship with music and clothes, with culture. But music was my first contact with anything creative. Music is it, as far as I’m concerned.
As far as writing or directing a film, I’ve worked with enough people who have done that that I know it’s just a whole other level of responsibility and chaos and murder that I could not see happening. For now, I’m just going to see what comes. I know what I like and what direction I have.
As far as Saddam Hussein being a great military strategist, he is neither a strategist, nor is he schooled in the operational arts, nor is he a tactician, nor is he a general, nor is he a soldier. Other than that, he’s a great military man, I want you to know that.
I’m probably one of the worst actors as far as preparation goes, because I actually don’t prepare. I find it easier to read the script and whatever hits me in my stomach, like deep down, I just go with it. And the director kind of molds me whether to go right or left with it.
I strongly believe that fundamental science cannot be driven by instructional, industrial, governmental or military pressures. This was the reason why I decided, as far as possible, not to accept money from the government.
