Expecting something for nothing is the most popular form of hope.

Tomorrow hopes we have learned something from yesterday.

But yeah I'm really happy when I'm writing. When I'm being creative and when I have something that I can put down. You know if you go out and you overhear a conversation or you have a thought you have a receptacle to go home and say 'Oh this would be great in this script.' Your antenna's out in a different way and I love that time.

The American consumer is also the American worker and if we don't do something to protect our manufacturing base here at home it is going to be hard to buy any retail goods.

I only scream and scratch when something's only 'really good' or 'good' I want to be great or let's go home.

You can't control the paparazzi. But if you go to Coachella you're going to get photographed. Whereas if you're at home walking down the street you probably won't. It's something I've learnt to navigate my way around but I try to keep my private life private.

Obviously the easiest recipes are the most successful when it comes to the home cook because they're not intimidated by them. If I'm doing 'Boy Meets Grill ' and I do something very simple like grilled hamburgers or steaks or chicken those are the most sought-after recipes.

The aesthetic came along the way I think - just through experimenting and going on tour and trying stuff out on stage having fun with it and not taking it too seriously. If I had a ballgown at home I'd wear it onstage. If I found something in a charity shop I'd wear it. That's where it grew from - just wanting to play dress-up.

I feel an obligation to set the record straight. Actors that say they're affected by something that it changes their life that they take it home with them they're just trying to get nominated for an Oscar!

But you know there's something about the kids finishing their homework in a given day working one-on-one getting all this attention - they go home they're finished. They don't stall they don't do their homework in front of the TV.
