America is a Nation with a mission - and that mission comes from our most basic beliefs. We have no desire to dominate no ambitions of empire. Our aim is a democratic peace - a peace founded upon the dignity and rights of every man and woman.

I think that economic patriotism is the very foundation of a European vision.

Patriotism must be founded on great principals and supported by great virtue.

The greater the state the more wrong and cruel its patriotism and the greater is the sum of suffering upon which its power is founded.

I found myself in a race with Mother Nature to play as much baseball as I could before she forced me to stop.

There is little doubt that we are in the midst of a revolution of a much more profound and fundamental nature than the social and political revolutions of the last half century.

Our observation of nature must be diligent our reflection profound and our experiments exact. We rarely see these three means combined and for this reason creative geniuses are not common.

Nature is by and large to be found out of doors a location where it cannot be argued there are never enough comfortable chairs.

You have not found your place until all your faculties are roused and your whole nature consents and approves of the work you are doing.

In the course of transferring all my CDs to my iPod I have found myself wandering the musical hallways of my past and reacquainting myself with music I haven't listened to in years.

If you make music for the human needs you have within yourself then you do it for all humans who need the same things. You enrich humanity with the profound expression of these feelings.

I started getting these attacks in 2009 just as my music career was taking off. I'd be doing photo-shoots and started to feel like I was having heart attacks.

There are certain sounds that I've found work well in nearly any context. Their function is not so much musical as spatial: they define the edges of the territory of the music.

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.

The advice I am giving always to all my students is above all to study the music profoundly... music is like the ocean and the instruments are little or bigger islands very beautiful for the flowers and trees.

I think movies have much more magic than the theater. Theater can be a magical experience but movies thrust their subjectivity on you in a more profound way.

I've found that if you wear a beret people think you're either a cabdriver or a producer of dirty movies.

I'm into 'The Walking Dead ' 'Shaun of the Dead ' obviously and I've seen all the Romero movies. I am a classic zombie queen. And I love the White Walkers on 'Game of Thrones.' Weirdly it wasn't until pretty late in life that I found my entry point into horror films.
