The secret of being miserable is to have leisure to bother about whether you are happy or not.

I think it's important to incorporate everything into all parts of your life. I don't separate all the things - during the day, I talk to my kids; they come and visit. On weekends, we go crazy and do lots of activities. I'm just not good at relaxing.
Honestly, I never really put the mic down.

I think I found that when I was doing a show on a regular basis and just acting constantly, that was when I was at my happiest.
For me, it's almost a 24/7 process. It's not like I only think when I'm in the office sitting at my desk.
Other sports play once a week but this sport is with us every day.
I want to work every day. I don't work every day. When I finish something, people ask me, 'You gonna chill for a little while?' I'm like, 'No. I chill on Sunday afternoon.' I need to be engaged.

Democrats tend to think of elections as cycles. Republicans don't: It's ongoing and constant.

The genius keeps all his days the vividness and intensity of interest that a sensitive child feels in his expanding world.
