Success listens only to applause. To all else it is deaf.

When I finish a picture I don't show it to anyone if I feel it's not good enough yet. I've learnt to listen to my partners and my friends. For me it's the biggest success if they like it.

Ask yourself the secret of your success. Listen to your answer and practice it.

I sort of try to write everything for me. I'm a huge sports fan but have no interest in minutiae. I don't remember who won Super Bowls five years ago or listen to sports talk radio. I'm trying to make sure the jokes are self-contained so they're accessible to everyone.

We've finally told the world that this is sports entertainment and I think one of the best forms of entertainment is anything that's fun or funny something that you really enjoy watching or listening to.

I have spoken with many former athletes and they tell me the best time they had was in sports. I listen to them and use their experience in my career.

Now I know you expected me to say that well I just kick back in the rocking chair fished a little bit listened to Willie Nelson tapes and watched old baseball games on the Classic Sports network. And tell you the truth I have done that for maybe about five total minutes.

If we all say the same thing then I think the government has to listen. But because no one is saying it I become singled out even though what I'm saying is common sense. It's very essential values that we all have to protect. But in Chinese society people are giving up on protecting these values.

There's an unconscious bias in our society: girls are wonderful boys are terrible. And to be a boy or young man growing up having to listen to all this it must be painful.

If one could only teach the English how to talk and the Irish how to listen society here would be quite civilized.
