I'm very conscious that I want the dance audience to respond and respect what I'm doing so I'm always very true to the music and I honour the music in the way I see it - I don't mess around with the music.
I work on words quite separately to music. They're both ongoing and I don't ever feel like I'm working in a cycle in that respect because it's every day anyway no matter what I'm doing. Then I get to a point when I've collected together enough words that seem like they want to be songs rather than poems or sometimes not.
Shooting a film is like a kismet quest. You have thirty days and you need magic to happen. So that's why I wear suits. I'm praying to the gods and I'm doing everything I can to respect the powers of the world.
When you have fans who are hassling you the entire game and you ignore them they respect you because their job is to try and distract you. And if they don't distract you that means you're focused on doing your job. And who knows by the end sometimes you even win them over.
I think we need to significantly reduce the regulatory burden on the private sector. The Obama administration is doing the opposite. They're loading on more and more regulation on the private respect to how the economy functions.
You couldn't pay me enough to be a law enforcement officer. Their job is a tough job. You have to solve people's problems you have to baby-sit people you have to always be doing this cat-and-mouse game with the bad guys. My respect for them is immense.
In the mean time I worship God laying every wrong action under an interdict which I endeavour to respect and I loathe the wicked without doing them any injury.
Labor wants pride and joy in doing good work a sense of making or doing something beautiful or useful - to be treated with dignity and respect as brother and sister.
So I really would like to see both parties respond to the poor with greater commitment. But I've got to tell you the Democrats I feel are doing a better job in that respect than Republicans are.
At the time of Polaroid - and I did a couple of other commercials just before I stopped doing that stuff - at that point I was at the level where they respect you and your opinion and all that sort of thing.
I don't have any respect at all for the scum-bags who went to Canada to avoid the draft or to avoid doing their fair share.
If I respect myself and believe in what I'm doing no one can touch me.
What I respect as far as in myself and in others is the spirit of just doing it. For better or worse it may work and it may not but I'm going to go for it. Ultimately I probably prefer to be respected for that than whether it works out or not either winning or losing.
That you may retain your self-respect it is better to displease the people by doing what you know is right than to temporarily please them by doing what you know is wrong.
Americans should be free to recognize our religious heritage doing that is not the same as creating a government-sponsored religion.
Religion is run by thought police. 'Obey. Listen. This is what you do. Don't ask questions. Go die for your country.' The spirituality says 'Okay you can die for your country but know what you're doing while you're doing it.'
The Left is doing to America what it has done to almost everything it has deeply influenced - the arts the university religion culture minorities Europe: ruining it.
Religion is doing a man does not merely think his religion or feel it he lives his religion as much as he is able otherwise it is not religion but fantasy or philosophy.

There is a direct line relationship between what happened in Afghanistan in the work up to 11 September 2001 and what we're doing in Afghanistan today.
I was always in trouble from an early age. I had a fraught relationship with my parents who were very traditional. Doing plays at school was a joyous release.
If I'm in a relationship I'm 1 000% in it. I love doing things for them and surprising them. And that's just something I thoroughly enjoy and it gives me a lot of pleasure. I just haven't found that right girl yet.
I think that the two of them have been doing this for a really long time and it is more like sport. Yes they would love to find a lasting relationship but it's not likely to happen the way they are going about it.
There's an ethic that says: 'You don't run off to the church for the sacraments of salvation you establish a personal relationship with God. You don't run off to the courts for justice you settle it yourself. You don't run off to labor unions to sort out your work relations you can take this job and shove it if you don't like what you're doing.'
