The majority of my records that become big records are usually done in one day.
The first week Banks was with us, we knew he was going to be a star.
I graduated on a Friday. By Monday, I was doing Shakespeare in the Park.
I would do the occasional score. I thought it was the most thrilling thing. It was instant. You made the music and they played it right away to millions of people. I found it thrilling.
The reception on 'P2' has been crazy. Every show on the tour has been sold-out. I didn't think people were gonna catch on to it that quick because I started the tour the same day it came out.
I never had an amateur career; I didn't go to college in America; when I came out on tour nobody knew who I was.
I'm not promising a championship. I know how hard that is to deliver. We're not ready right now.
There's always this assumption that you're going to get everything right immediately. And any professional understands that that's just not so.
I was in such a hurry to be an actor. Now I'm sometimes mad at myself that I didn't stop and study for a couple of years.
With this opportunity that I have with McLaren, the way I look at it is if I can't succeed straightaway with McLaren now and be good enough for them then I won't ever be good enough.
If you start today to do the right thing, you are already a success even if it doesn’t show yet.
Rodgers and Hammerstein didn't mean anything to me. I just wanted to have a hit, I just wanted to be like those people on the radio. It was all of a case of the present tense with no projecting into the future, particularly.
It is difficult to give time to develop projects in football. You buy the club, and you want the title after three months.
Set your sights high, the higher the better. Expect the most wonderful things to happen, not in the future but right now. Realize that nothing is too good. Allow absolutely nothing to hamper you or hold you up in any way.
There seems to be this thing in football where everything has to be... now!
I got my agents right out of school, and I booked my first commercial right away. It was always enough to not quit and do something else.
A lot of times you don't see that, doesn't matter when they're drafted, first round or not. You usually don't see guys come in and wow you.
I missed out on my childhood. I had to work hard, but I was immediately given a place in playback.
Our goal is a title. With LeBron, we are in 'win now' mode.
I had a lot of success from the start. I never really was tested for long periods of time. I got my first professional job while I was a senior in college. I signed with the William Morris Agency before I graduated.
