I have a rule on my team: when we talk to one another we look each other right in the eye because I think it's tough to lie to somebody. You give respect to somebody.

My philosophy is to do the best you can for somebody. Help. It's not just what do you for yourself. It's how you treat people decently. The golden rule. There isn't big anything better than the golden rule. It's in every major religion in one language or another.

I really always expected to somebody to make me happy and I don't think you can really enter into a relationship until you are happy.

My character Lena is somebody who responds to people in a very simple way. I didn't have to take myself off to a darkened room to concentrate I just had to try and be open. It's an interesting subtle relationship.

Though I still have no semblance of a life outside of Nine Inch Nails at the moment I realize my goals have gone from getting a record deal or selling another record to being a better person more well-rounded having friends having a relationship with somebody.

If you're a Christian you don't sit there and worry about what somebody else is doing if they're happy and they're committed in a relationship.

I couldn't be in a relationship and behave like somebody else or pretend I felt something I didn't feel. And that includes saying things I thought might jeopardize the relationship.

When you're in a relationship with somebody who is also a public personality then it doubles the attention from the media.

Film music should have the same relationship to the film drama that somebody's piano playing in my living room has on the book I am reading.

Have you ever loved somebody loved her completely but had to end the relationship for life reasons?

The way I become friends with somebody is a slow process. You can't just spill your guts and tell them everything about yourself and expect them to listen and understand you because you don't know them. It's the same thing with a relationship.

I want to be very close to someone I respect and admire and have somebody who feels the same way about me.

In the Old Testament it says that if you have the power to do something good then you have to do it. You're not to avoid helping somebody in their time of need.

My relationship to power and authority is that I'm all for it. People need somebody to watch over them. Ninety-five percent of the people in the world need to be told what to do and how to behave.

It's nice to help remember somebody who really made a very positive difference in the world.

I want to make sure that no matter how long I go through this I don't fall into the trap of changing and modifying how I do things that aren't a positive example. I want to remain somebody that the entire family can listen to or watch.

People look up to me as somebody who is able to switch the image of our country from negative to positive.

I had never had a positive leading character - somebody that wasn't an antihero or who wasn't more of a guy that you're supposed to be on the side of.

I do not know much about politics but I am trying to do the best I can with this administration until the time shall come for me to turn it over to somebody else.

The fallback position in politics is if you don't know what you want to be about and if you don't know what your vision is go at somebody else.

The Vice-Presidency is sort of like the last cookie on the plate. Everybody insists he won't take it but somebody always does.

Great poetry is always written by somebody straining to go beyond what he can do.

You know bad poetry I wrote in high school can still be found on the Internet and you know there's a Web log of our college newspaper. You know there's so many different stages of my creative development are sort of on-record if somebody were to choose to look for them.

When you're going through something whether it's a wonderful thing like having a child or a sad thing like losing somebody you often feel like 'Oh my God I'm so overwhelmed I'm dealing with this huge thing on my own.' In fact poetry's a nice reminder that no everybody goes through it. These are universal experiences.
