Classical plays require more imagination and more general training to be able to do. That's why I like playing Shakespeare better than anything else.

Generally speaking a howling wilderness does not howl: it is the imagination of the traveler that does the howling.

The president of General Motors was in a foul humor.

Probably it is impossible for humor to be ever a revolutionary weapon. Candide can do little more than generate irony.

Me and Matt love to argue but in general our sense of humor is pretty much alike.

I'm thrilled to continue my partnership with U by Kotex for Generation Know while helping to empower girls. I've always been a motivational resource for my younger sisters and hope I can positively impact and inspire other young girls too.

It's true that General Musharraf opposes my return seeing me as a symbol of democracy in the country. He is comfortable with dictatorship. I hope better sense prevails.

I hope that what it comes down to at the end of the day is that people believe that I believe what I'm singing. It comes down to being believable. You don't have to be likeable generally though I think I am.

In general shorter is better. If you can encapsulate your idea into a single captivating sentence you're halfway home.
