We asserted ourselves as a music community and showed legislators that music is positive. Especially if you've sold 300 million records worldwide and pay taxes.
I'm pleased to offer analysis of public policy and politics to the millions of Americans who get their news from Fox.
Politics begin where the masses are not where there are thousands but where there are millions that is where serious politics begin.
There is poetry even in prose in all the great prose which is not merely utilitarian or didactic: there exist poets who write in prose or at least in more or less apparent prose millions of poets write verses which have no connection with poetry.
I've teamed up with PetSmart Charities to celebrate the five million homeless pets who've found homes through their in-store adoption centers and to spread the word about how we can work together to save millions more pets' lives and ultimately end pet homelessness.
The plan shows that the twenty million people in the German democratic Republic and in the democratic sector of Berlin think only of peace and that they are working for freedom and peaceful prosperity.
You are not going to get peace with millions of armed men. The chariot of peace cannot advance over a road littered with cannon.
We must join with the tens of millions all over the world who see in peace our most sacred responsibility.
I've been there and done all that sold millions of records and that doesn't bring you peace.
I've also gotten to play in front of a million people in Central Park when there was a grass roots movement calling for nuclear disarmament - it was about 1982 - they called it Peace Sunday.
True there has been more talk of peace since 1945 than I should think at any other time in history. At least we hear more and read more about it because man's words for good or ill can now so easily reach the millions.
For hundreds of millions of Americans who believe in God prayer is our bridge between Earth and Heaven our way of opening our hearts to the Lord. Through this intimate relationship we find peace and guidance.
Peace Train is a song I wrote the message of which continues to breeze thunderously through the hearts of millions of human beings.
Music is an extraordinary vehicle for expressing emotion - very powerful emotions. That's what draws millions of people towards it. And um I found myself always going for these darker places and - people identify with that.
Life goes on and I'm moving on to the next thing but I hope the soaps that are still running will thrive. They have millions of loyal viewers.
I mean don't forget the earth's about five thousand million years old at least. Who can afford to live in the past?
It just proves good movies don't need 100 million dollars to be good.
I do believe that movies are subject to a million interpretations.
I was terrified to do 'G.I. Joe.' I had no idea how to do one of those movies. I was kind of scared. You know if one of those doesn't work it's a huge hit on your career. People are like 'Well he couldn't make a $170 million movie work. I don't want him in my film.'
Last year when 'Black Swan ' 'True Grit' and 'King's Speech' all grossed over $100 million it gave studios and independent financiers the confidence to make daring movies and not do the same old you-know-what.
When we talk about Oscars it's almost as a symbol of excellence and the American public and the worldwide public accept that symbol. So a movie like 'The Artist' that costs $14 million has to go out and compete with movies that cost $140 million. How does David deal with Goliath?
I hadn't made a big-budget film and in Hollywood there's a sort of man and boys situation. You're a man you make $80 million movies! As if it's harder to make an $80 million movie. Well I guess businesswise it is because you have more executives to argue with.
I've turned down twentysomething million dollars for movies.
Man if I made one million dollars I would come in at six in the morning sweep the stands wash the uniforms clean out the office manage the team and play the games.
