Be curious learn and read as much as you can about food. Don't worry about making money. Focus on learning at various venues before you settle down for a steady position.

Also the more you're not focused on showbiz and instead focused on life learning about other people and keeping your eyes open and trying to be aware of the world.

I've seen a lot of the United States having stayed in so many different cities and towns for work. It's such a strange and fascinating country and instead of learning about it through a textbook I would rather discover its history and traditions and institutions through fiction and nonfiction writers.

I never refused an autograph never refused to buy someone a drink. Now I'm learning to say I've got other things on instead of doing it and wondering why.

I'm pleased to say my knee feels a lot better. It's still not back to normal and I don't know if it ever will be but I'm learning to deal with it instead of expecting it to be like it was before.

I can't do the same movies all my life. I'm conscious of that. But it's a trade-off. 'Dear John' allowed me to do movies I've wanted to do. You learn to balance it out. I'm still learning. Only now am I getting to do the kinds of movies that I have wanted to do. So it's a steady climb. You don't jump into a Soderbergh film.

But if we learn to think of it as anticipation as learning as growing if we think of the time we spend waiting for the big things of life as an opportunity instead of a passing of time what wonderful horizons open out!

Instead of going to college I spent my time out on the road learning how to be a better musician.

A lot of the problems I had with fame I was bringing on myself. A lot of self-loathing a lot of woe-is-me. Now I'm learning to see the positive side of things instead of like 'I can't go to Kmart. I can't take my kids to the haunted house.'

The secret of success is learning how to use pain and pleasure instead of having pain and pleasure use you. If you do that you're in control of your life. If you don't life controls you.
