Again like I said we're not trying to censor anyone. If you think drugs are cool fine. Make that movie. We are not going to stop you or try to stop you but we would encourage other people to be a bit more responsible about their portrayal of drug usage.

I am kind of a private person so I don't miss that part of show business at all. Looking back on my career in television and making a movie like 'The Sound of Music' from an adult point of view it actually seems kind of unreal. I was involved in shows that people grew up with - that hold memories for them - and it's a cool feeling.

You're not really necessarily the coolest guy in their life. You are a conduit to the really cool people.

There is a bit of a movement as far as younger people in country music. That is cool because people are saying things like 'I didn't listen to country music until so-and-so came along.' And I'm like 'Yeah! Now you know why I love it.'

I work with really cool people and so far I haven't been approached in any embarrassing manner when it comes to image.

I wouldn't compare myself to any past Idol contestant because I don't feel like I am like any of them. Maybe stories are cool but my story is different from most people's story. I don't like to compare myself to other people I like to just be me.

Greg Berlanti David Nutter Andrew Kreisberg and Marc Guggenheim are the people I wanted to work with. They're smart they're funny they're cool they're edgy.

I hate it when people come up to me on trains and ask 'Are you Soulja Boy?' If people want pictures or autographs that's cool but I don't like the dumb questions.

It's great that people are basically spending their two weeks of vacation to come out and be with us in some weird part of the world. And I think we owe it to them to take 'em to some cool places.

I remember being in Atlantic City once when I was 18 or 19 and a sea of people were screaming and pulling their hair because I was there. It was weird. Nobody deserves adulation like that. I tried to explain it to my kids once. I said 'Mommy used to be kind of cool kind of like a Britney Spears.'

People always used to say to me 'Don't you want your own show? That'd be so cool if you had your own show.' I said 'You know it's not gonna happen. So - no.'

It's cool for me because I'm a director but I'm also a teacher. I'm a lover of cinema and I love working with people who are hungry and have the energy to really do better work.

If you work in casting it's sort of not cool to want to act. A lot of people think that casting directors are frustrated actors but it wasn't true with any of the casting people I knew.

Lots of people say to me 'I completely hate Busted'. That's completely cool with me. I understand why.

I know a lot of people dread going to work every morning but my work is playing pretend and doing stunts and screaming. It's a lot of fun and I get to play dress up. Every day is exciting and different and new and cool. I couldn't be more grateful.

I love seeing people having fun. Everyone over in L.A. is too cool for it. That's the problem.

I try to explain to people that you get the roles that are right when they're right. If you have a nerd character but you're kind of a cool guy you're probably not going to get the nerd part. The nerd is going to get the nerd part. You know someone like me.

I love people and I love to be with people and to make music with people but my natural state is to revert back to being by myself in my house which is cool because that's where I practice and write and listen and study.

But if you think you aren't creative that's cool too. I think being around people who aren't creative is kind of refreshing and nice.

Almost all the fans I meet are pretty cool people. They're intelligent and tend to think about things a bit more than your average rock'n'roll fans: sensible people I wouldn't mind having a drink with.

I definitely dislike pomposity and artifice. I hope that I'm not that. Once I write a song it belongs to the world and the way people perceive it it's cool.

We got to do a few things with President Clinton. To be invited to Washington again to play with Ashanti and all those other cool people there in front of President Bush and the rest of the world feels awesome. I'm really looking forward to going.

There are some people who have stayed with us our whole career which is pretty cool too.

You know what 'New Girl' is doing is they're bringing in really cool people. These are home-run people who aren't your typical guest-star-type people.
