I enjoyed the administrative work because it involved working with Congress city council and the mayor. I had never been a politician so it was fun - learning political maneuvering.

I hope the cooks who are working for me now are getting that kind of experience so they can use what they're learning now as a foundation for a great career.

Someone taught me how to eat properly. Learning from others is important when it's not working for yourself.

I guess confidence is the only thing that I take from project to project but I'm always open to learning everybody's style - the director the actor I'm working with.

One thing changes every evening: It's the audience and I'm working my magic. I'm always learning from it.

I'm writing a book and working on my one-woman show Learning To Be Human.

For the past eight years the right has been better at working the refs. Now the left is learning how to play the game.
