What we're doing now is we're saying that individual schools can spend the money on their own priorities so that head teachers can decide what's truly important because the big shift in approach on education that we're taking - which is different from what happened before - is that we trust teachers and we trust heads.

We need to drive down requirements for the schools. In the 19th century we increased the quality of the schools by higher education saying 'You can't come in unless you have these skills unless you've taken these courses.' We did that in Wisconsin when I was there it helped to transform the secondary school system.

Our solution on 'The Simpsons' is to do jokes that people who have an education or some frame of reference can get. And for the ones who don't it doesn't matter because we have Homer banging his head and saying 'D'oh!'

Usually I design the lighting and when I have the physical set there I'm not good at going out loosely and saying 'Do you what you want give it to the editor and he'll figure it out.' I physically then walk on with the actors and I say 'Let's walk until you guys feel the space works for you and tell me when all that happens.'

Actually I didn't make the claim that Ruby follows the principle of least surprise. Someone felt the design of Ruby follows that philosophy so they started saying that. I didn't bring that up actually.

The cult of the individual is killing us. I think Twitter signals the death of western civilisation but people have been saying that since Demosthenes.

You always think that 70 is the end of the road: 'Somebody died when they were 73 good life'. You're closer to death and you better make sure you don't waste too much of your time doing things you don't want to do. No point in saying things you don't believe in.

I'm sick to death of people saying we've made 11 albums that sounds exactly the same Infact we've made 12 albums that sound exactly the same.
