For in the true nature of things if we rightly consider every green tree is far more glorious than if it were made of gold and silver.

The considerations of a corporation especially now have nothing to do with art or music.

I wanted to get rid of the element that had been considered essential in pop music: the voice.

I've studied various schools of thought... I acknowledge that some Muslims consider music prohibited but I've found a lot of evidence from the life of the Prophet to show that he allowed certainly but even encouraged music at certain times.

I would say that although my music may be or may have been part of the cultural background fabric of the gay community I consider myself an outsider who belongs everywhere and nowhere... Being a human being is what truly counts. That's where you'll find me.

I'm clearly most well known for my music. Eventually ultimately I'll be writing books. I'm still writing articles now. I just consider myself a writer.

I like pop music. I consider rock 'n' roll to be a branch of pop music.

Although I am basically self taught I consider Debussy my teacher - the most important elements are colour light and shadow.

I knew I had to get out of Boston and stop making movies there at least for one movie otherwise no one would ever consider me for a movie that took place south of Providence.

Well Toronto I consider to be the birthplace of my films. I've made three films and this is the third one to premiere here in the same theater on the same day at the same time - they are my audience. They're the people that I think about while I'm writing directing and editing. I specifically make movies for them.

I always leave that for other people to decide because some of the things I consider to be disasters are some people's favorite movies. And that's what I like so much is that you never know. Something intrigues somebody and means nothing to somebody else.

I've made three musical movies which is pretty good considering that not many are made but I was lucky in other ways. I came along when independent movies were starting to boom.

I don't know what it was maybe the movie theaters in my immediate surrounding neighbourhood in Burbank but I never saw what would be considered A movies.

I realized this is what God has dealt me and I should be thankful considering all that's happened to me in my life but MS caused the movies to stop - stop dead - and I miss it.

It seems to me madness to wake up in the morning and do something other than paint considering that one may not wake up the following morning.

Writing is the only profession where no one considers you ridiculous if you earn no money.

If time is money it seems moral to save time above all one's own and such parsimony is excused by consideration for others. One is straight-forward.

I am very proud of my mom and consider her the most courageous woman I know. With perseverance sacrifice and hard work she raised a family of Olympic athletes and gave us the tools and the spirit to succeed. That is something that my brothers and I will always be thankful for.

I do not consider divorce an evil by any means. It is just as much a refuge for women married to brutal men as Canada was to the slaves of brutal masters.

He had read much if one considers his long life but his contemplation was much more than his reading. He was wont to say that if he had read as much as other men he should have known no more than other men.

I do not consider it an insult but rather a compliment to be called an agnostic. I do not pretend to know where many ignorant men are sure - that is all that agnosticism means.

Though force can protect in emergency only justice fairness consideration and cooperation can finally lead men to the dawn of eternal peace.

Men take only their needs into consideration - never their abilities.

When men attempt bold gestures generally it's considered romantic. When women do it it's often considered desperate or psycho.
