I know that Annie Lennox has saved my life quite a few times, and I never forget that.

I was a manic and eccentric kid. In my head I was very busy, so I must have seemed weird.

Most people who get into power in the western world start with great intentions, but slowly they all become entrapped and hung by their own petard.

I like people who are minimalist with their words. Jack Nicholson thinks a lot then says something, and it's always spot on. Nelson Mandela is the same.
