I guess confidence is the only thing that I take from project to project but I'm always open to learning everybody's style - the director the actor I'm working with.

We live in a time where government is not a leadership thing it's more a business that's out there and running riot so I guess the people have to go out there and say stuff.

You can never stop and as older people we have to learn how to take leadership from the youth and I guess I would say that this is what I'm attempting to do right now.

I guess something that I've noticed from American acts who had success in touring is more of an explanation as to their music. Which is I think quite funny. I think British acts might like to leave more to the imagination - maybe a bit more obscure perhaps - a bit more shy.

I guess what I've learned is that there are no boundaries when it comes to imagination. It's limitless.

I guess I'm a very keen observer and I'd like to think I have a good imagination.

Imagination has rules but we can only guess what they are.

I try to bring it across on my record in my dress in what I do and what I say because to me humor is important. You should have a dose of that and I guess giving it is what I'm here for.

The comics that are just conversing with you up there and drawing on their own life yeah I guess so. I guess some do political humor some do topical humor but the ones that I like the ones that are appealing to me were guys who were just talking to you about their life.

I hope that I would be considered romantic. I don't know... one of my favorite movies is 'The Notebook' so I guess that would be considered romantic. But I think being romantic is more than the flowers and the gifts. It's about connecting with the person and being able to talk and share things with her.

I'm moving on. I should have made that clear when I made the announcement. I guess I wasn't clear. If people think you're leaving a show after all these years you might be retiring. So I understand where they're coming from but I should have impressed the fact that I hope I'm just moving on right now.

You know you go home and you try on a new mascara and I guess a male CEO can't do that.

Obviously there's not much options when you're a cartoonist - you pretty much either work at home or rent an office I guess and working at home just seems easier.

I am not quite sure where home is right now. I do have places in London and Milan and a house in Spain. I guess I would say home is where my mother is and she lives in Spain.

Why shouldn't rap be esoteric able to take in current events history and criticism? I guess it's this old idea of containment - that rappers because they're black can't and shouldn't aspire to look outside the ghetto for influence.

History is mostly guessing the rest is prejudice.

Life isn't meant to be easy. It's hard to take being on the top - or on the bottom. I guess I'm something of a fatalist. You have to have a sense of history I think to survive some of these things... Life is one crisis after another.

As musicians and artists it's important we have an environment - and I guess when I say environment I really mean the industry that really nurtures these gifts. Oftentimes the machine can overlook the need to take care of the people who produce the sounds that have a lot to do with the health and well-being of society.

I was as happy doing theater in New York for little or no money as I am now doing television for more money. The happiness I guess comes out of it being a good job. The success has to do with the fact that it's a good job that will continue.

I guess happiness is not a state you want to be in all the time.

If your happiness depends on what somebody else does I guess you do have a problem.

I have great people smart people that are around me and we love the challenge. I guess it's like climbing a mountain or building a building. It's a challenge but you love every challenge that it brings or presents itself.

In Michigan a liberal democrat raised taxes and kept their government programs at the same level. And guess what? Their economy continued into the toilet it continued down.

I think its rather peculiar. It's not in keeping with our founding documents our founding vision. But I'd guess you'd have to ask the Obama administration why they purged all this language from their platform. There sure is a lot of mention of government so I guess I would put the onus on them to answer why they did all these purges of God.
