The question of whether a computer can think is no more interesting than the question of whether a submarine can swim.

I think sex is very interesting for most people but I'm interested in sex as a way of communication I'm not that interested in the fantasy version of a sex scene.

Music is about communication... it isn't just something that maybe physically sounds good or orally sounds interesting it's something far far deeper than that.

The business is a very tricky obstacle course and you should be very clear about work begetting work. If you're not working you're not interesting.

In this business my business I get to meet all kinds of incredible people fascinating people glamorous people and sexy people and highly intellectual people. And you meet them and you go 'interesting interesting interesting'. They're interesting but not very many people stop you in your tracks.

I get a lot of the ideas when I'm resting - either when I'm meditating or getting some kind of work done on my back like physical therapy or acupuncture. That's where I get my best ideas maybe because I'm balancing my body.

After all the best part of a holiday is perhaps not so much to be resting yourself as to see all the other fellows busy working.

I looked on child rearing not only as a work of love and duty but as a profession that was fully as interesting and challenging as any honorable profession in the world and one that demanded the best that I could bring to it.

I always find beauty in things that are odd and imperfect - they are much more interesting.

There is certainly no absolute standard of beauty. That precisely is what makes its pursuit so interesting.
