“When I think about what sort of person I would most like to have on a retainer, I think it would be a boss. A boss who could tell me what to do, because that makes everything easy when you’re working.”

Being good in business is the most fascinating kind of art. Making money is art and working is art and good business is the best art.

Don’t think about making art, just get it done. Let everyone else decide if it’s good or bad, whether they love it or hate it. While they are deciding, make even more art.

I had a lot of dates but I decided to stay home and dye my eyebrows.

Don’t think about making art, just get it done.

I’m seeking out a new way to live and if it’s surfing, that’s the way I’ll do it. I’ll be a surfer for the rest of my life.

Everybody has a different idea of love. One girl I know said, “I knew he loved me when de didn’t come in my mouth.

Employees make the best dates. You don’t have to pick them up and they’re always tax-deductible.

I think having land and not ruining it is the most beautiful art that anybody could ever want to own.

People need to be made more aware of the need to work at learning how to live because life is so quick and sometimes it goes away too quickly.

I wake up every morning. I open my eyes and think: here we go again.

Everyone needs a fantasy.

I think anybody can take a good picture. My idea of a good picture is one that’s in focus and of a famous person doing something unfamous. It’s being in the right place at the wrong time.

I still care about people but it would be so much easier not to care. I don’t want to get too close; I don’t like to touch things.

I don’t know where the artificial stops and the real starts.

I broke something and realized I should break something once a week to remind me how fragile life is.

As soon as you stop wanting something you get it. I’ve found that to be absolutely axiomatic.

For life is tendency, and the essence of a tendency is to develop in the form of a sheaf, creating, by its very growth, divergent directions among which its impetus is divided.

When I realized I could use Facebook as a way to communicate directly with my fans, I thought it would be a great idea.

I’ve been in front of the camera a million times as a musician, and even directed a few music videos. So, I know a lot about spacing, focus, blocking, etcetera. So, acting isn’t totally new for me. Still, I find it fascinating, because you actually get to be another person.

Words, like cannon balls, should go direct to their mark.

I feel more like I’m a person who has so much to offer in different capacities that it would be a danger for me not to give myself a chance to spread my wings in all different directions.

There is a direct correlation between your appreciation of what Christ has done for you and the expression of worship.

The thing is, continuity of strategic direction and continuous improvement in how you do things are absolutely consistent with each other. In fact, they’re mutually reinforcing.

The Father doesn’t give life directions in one big bundle because the goal is knowing Him, not the plan.
