All I try to do is create an atmosphere that seems comfortable enough that it removes tension and everyone feels free. If they feel free then behaviour happens small moments happen and that's what ultimately works the best for me.

That's what happens nowadays with people working on computers. They can so easily fix things with their mouse and take out all the 'Oh somebody coughed in the background we need to take that out' - or somebody hit a bad note. Those are all the best moments.

When one is trying to do something beyond his known powers it is useless to seek the approval of friends. Friends are at their best in moments of defeat.

My best moment? I have a lot of good moments but the one I prefer is when I kicked the hooligan.

The future hasn't happened yet and the past is gone. So I think the only moment we have is right here and now and I try to make the best of those moments the moments that I'm in.

My mother is a big believer in being responsible for your own happiness. She always talked about finding joy in small moments and insisted that we stop and take in the beauty of an ordinary day. When I stop the car to make my kids really see a sunset I hear my mother's voice and smile.

Certain thoughts are prayers. There are moments when whatever be the attitude of the body the soul is on its knees.

Keep a good attitude and do the right thing even when it's hard. When you do that you are passing the test. And God promises you your marked moments are on their way.

'Summer of Love: Art of the Psychedelic Era ' the Whitney Museum's 40th-anniversary trip down counterculture memory lane provides moments of buzzy fun but it'll leave you only comfortably numb. For starters it may be the whitest straightest most conservative show seen in a New York museum since psychedelia was new.

Of the individual poems some are more lyric and some are more descriptive or narrative. Each poem is fixed in a moment. All those moments written or read together take on the movement and architecture of a narrative.
