Having a baby changes the way you view your in-laws. I love it when they come to visit now. They can hold the baby and I can go out.

Having children is like having a bowling alley installed in your brain.

Don't be afraid in nature: one must be bold at the risk of having been deceived and making mistakes.

I am following Nature without being able to grasp her I perhaps owe having become a painter to flowers.

I'm concentrating on staying healthy having peace being happy remembering what is important taking in nature and animals spending time reading trying to understand the universe where science and the spiritual meet.

Having contemplated this admirable grove I proceeded towards the shrubberies on the banks of the river and though it was now late in December the aromatic groves appeared in full bloom.

I perhaps owe having become a painter to flowers.

I want to promote poetry to the point where you got all the baldhead kids running around doing poetry getting the music out of the way and having only words the spoken word and then see what happens.

I have one piece of music since 1997 and I don't see it having lyrics. Where does it go in this world? So I haven't recorded it.

That's why this generation is the least racist generation ever. You see it all the time. Go to any club. People are intermingling hanging out having fun enjoying the same music. Hip-hop is not just in the Bronx anymore. It's worldwide. Everywhere you go people are listening to hip-hop and partying together. Hip-hop has done that.

Def Leppard is obviously a different band that we are but the music work well tighter. And the audiences seem work well together too. We are opening but we're having a good time.

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. Increasingly I found it difficult to step outside my flat. Things started to get better after I saw a therapist who told me I needed to make peace with my panic attacks.

This was a time frame when dance music and clubs were having a real impact on culture and it had an impact on me.

I like having my hair and face done but I'm not going to lose weight because someone tells me to. I make music to be a musician not to be on the cover of Playboy.

I've said that playing the blues is like having to be black twice. Stevie Ray Vaughan missed on both counts but I never noticed.

The moving finger writes and having written moves on. Nor all thy piety nor all thy wit can cancel half a line of it.

Whenever I think about movies I always look at that art process as having the best of a lot of worlds. Because if you watch a great film you have a musical element to it not just on the scoring but in the way that the shots are edited - that has music and rhythm and time.

All that running around in my underwear put money in my pockets. I can focus on working in interesting movies without having to worry about supporting myself.

I think America becomes more disgruntled by going to the movies and having an endlessly good time at them.

When I go to movies and I love the movie it's because it feels like it articulated something about how we're living now and also gives me some insight into my own life. I feel actually altered after having seen it.

The one benefit of having done all kinds of movies as an actor is you learn the pros and cons of being tempted to do a really big movie because it costs a lot of money.

Where I live nobody who's fourteen is having sex and doing major drugs. And I think if you see it in the movies you may be influenced by it. I think it's so important to preserve your innocence.

I like the idea of movies having a magic element. How many times have you seen an actor in a movie who you know only as the character? It's wonderful isn't it?

You know what I like to do? I love waking up early making them breakfast taking them to school having time in the morning with them. With six kids it's like a reality show.
