My brother was a great audience, and if he liked the picture, he would laugh and laugh and laugh, and he would want to keep the picture. Making people laugh with an image I had created. . . what power that was!
So let us go forward quietly, each on his own path, forever making for the light.
There seem to be a lot of black artists making very good videos that I'm surprised aren't being used on MTV.
They call them performance artists, but they shouldn't be making an album. They should just be dancers. I don't know, I'm a musical snob. I feel like if you're going to record music and you're going to be a singer, you have to be able to sing.
Just making sure that they both felt equally loved is what was tough about the twins.
The art of research [is] the art of making difficult problems soluble by devising means of getting at them.
I never wanted to be a part of planet Earth, but I am compelled to be here, so anything I do for this planet is because the Master-Creator of the Universe is making me do it. I am of another dimension. I am on this planet because people need me.

I want gaming to be something that everybody does, because they understand that games can be a real solution to problems and a real source of happiness. I want games to be something everybody learns how to design and develop, because they understand that games are a real platform for change and getting things done. And I want families, schools, companies, industries, cities, countries, and the whole world to come together to play them, because we’re finally making games that tackle real dilemmas and improve real lives.
Once you finish the script, it's no longer yours; it's the other people making it, which sometimes can be hard.
I think intellectual property is more like land, and copyright violation is more like trespass.
