I have been enlightened. I have fallen into poetry and it has swallowed me up.

I had art as a major along with English French and History. I had dance modern dance. In English I was allowed to write my own poetry which I eventually got published.

I love animals and feel very strongly that people should not be allowed to buy a pet if they are not able to look after it.

To keep it simple you run your gym like you run your house. Keep it clean and in good running order. No jerks allowed members pay on time and if they give you any crap throw them out. There's peace where there's order.

As a young boy I read 'Cheaper by the Dozen' and immediately became neurotic about my use of time. It taxed me severely but only for the next 50 years. But I think it also allowed me to discipline myself to sit in the chair and be a writer where one of the most needed qualities is patience.

No you're not allowed to be bossy when you're married. You have to learn compromise and compassion and patience.

A child who is allowed to be disrespectful to his parents will not have true respect for anyone.

I've studied various schools of thought... I acknowledge that some Muslims consider music prohibited but I've found a lot of evidence from the life of the Prophet to show that he allowed certainly but even encouraged music at certain times.

I wasn't allowed to go to movies when I was kid my father was a minister. 101 Dalmatians and King of Kings that was the extent of it.

Everyone related to me in my circle was from church: church friends church school church activities. All my friends weren't allowed to watch MTV or go to PG-13 movies or listen to the radio so I didn't really know anything different. That's how I was raised.

Your home should be your home. People shouldn't be allowed to use whatever crazy lenses they use to catch you waking up in the morning.

One argument goes that recessions are good for female artists because when money flies out the window women are allowed in the house. The other claims that when money ebbs so do prospects for women.

To fulfill a dream to be allowed to sweat over lonely labor to be given a chance to create is the meat and potatoes of life. The money is the gravy.

If God has allowed me to earn so much money it is because He knows I give it all away.

I always was drawn to the performing arts. I started dancing when I was two. I sang loved to act and loved going to visit my mom on-set. But she wanted me to have a normal childhood so I wasn't really allowed to pursue acting till I got older.

When I was a child it was very clear what I was allowed to see and what I was not allowed to see and there was no discussion or option or negotiation. Whatever my mom said that's what went down.

My brother Trevor is theatrically trained. I used to watch him when I was younger and I was in love with it. It just seemed really fun to be someone else. So I begged my mom she was hesitant but she eventually allowed me. And it turned out well I guess.

I had to take my makeup off at work every night. I wasn't allowed to do it at home because my mom said that when your work day is done you're done with work.

Every man must define his identity against his mother. If he does not he just falls back into her and is swallowed up.

I'm not convinced about marriage. Divorce is so easy and that fact that gay people are not allowed to marry takes much of the meaning out of it. Committing yourself to one person is sacred.

The sadness of the women's movement is that they don't allow the necessity of love. See I don't personally trust any revolution where love is not allowed.

You use your money to buy privacy because during most of your life you aren't allowed to be normal.
