If I lived in L.A., I'd be schizophrenic after a week.

Education is what you learn after you leave school.

I named my guitar Joan after Joan Baez.

After being an actor, producing 'One By Two' was a natural progression.

After the Civil War, Black Mississippians had economic power, voting rights, and citizenship. They used their majority to elect African-Americans to office up and down the ballot.

That's usually how I get to know strangers - get inappropriately touchy. Once they've experienced the awkwardness of you being way too close for comfort, after that, it all gets easy.

Country music in the mid-'90s was a big influence on my career, and I played all the songs that are referenced in '94' back in my club days. Joe Diffie was rocking a sick mullet, and he was hotter...

I run Willow Management, which is the biggest agency for other short actors. We look after performers who are either under five feet and over seven feet tall.

With the quarterback position, because you're touching the ball every single snap, you want to make a play and you just have to guard against that. It's about making the plays that come to you, not...

It's what you do during and after your trials that builds character.

You do show after show after show and get them done and on the air. Television devours material. We work a minimum of 12, 14 hours, and often 15, 18 hours a day.

As soon as Zuffa bought Strikeforce, Jon Jones fought right after that and everybody was blowing up my Twitter about fighting Jon Jones. That would be fun for me because he's so unorthodox.

You never want anything to distract from the message you're sharing with the audience. That means even after an all-nighter in the car or a live shot after two connecting flights, you have to sound...

For several days after my first book was published, I carried it about in my pocket and took surreptitious peeks at it to make sure the ink had not faded.

My advice would be not to write until after 35. You need some experience, and for life to knock you about a bit. Growing up is so hard you probably won't have much emotion to spare anyway.

It's a knack that my mother doesn't have. The only audiobook she ever did she had to leave after the first day, because she couldn't string two sentences together. It's about the only thing she can't...

I used to play golf. I wanted to be a better player, but after a while, I realized I'd always stink. And that's when I really started to enjoy the game.

I was first inspired to make music by my cousin Oran. He was making music on an old Mac II by himself in his little lab, and I just started taking up after him. He was the first person to put a...

I think I was so grateful, in the years after Sleater-Kinney broke up or went on hiatus or whatever you want to call it, to find 'Portlandia' and co-create 'Portlandia' with Fred Armisen, which allows...

I definitely have a little attraction to bad guys, but they have to be sweethearts underneath. After all, I like to be treated well.

After the first 'Hedwig,' interestingly, I was offered to play Hamlet a couple of times.

I had a poster of Iniesta. He seemed like a different player to me: elegant, special... a genius. I watched all the Barcelona games to see how they played and the geniuses, Iniesta and Messi. After, I...

The reward of great men is that, long after they have died, one is not quite sure that they are dead.

After 'Heart Skips A Beat' hit No.1, I barely had a chance to celebrate because it was straight over to the judges' houses for the 'Xtra Factor,' filming in Greece, L.A. and Spain.
