I'm a people person, very approachable. I go out every night, tons of functions. I love all facets of this industry. . . Music, film, TV, books, art. I love being around creative people.
I didn't invent the word "selfie," but I took tons of Polaroids of myself.
After directing movies, I respect any director in this world, because making a movie as a director is tons and tons of work.
I've read a lot of bad books. I used to review books for a living, and when you're a reviewer you read tons of terrible books.
I kind of like carbon taxes because we already know how to apply them. We already have apparatus in place. When we talk about these other solutions - like a billion tons of iron filings in the ocean or putting sunshades between us and the sun - they're huge. We have no idea if they will work. We have no idea what their nasty consequences might be. And it's unlikely we can do them anyway.
I don't have tons of scripts where I don't know what to choose and I'm trying to calculate. It's either I read something and I have an impulse to do it, or in meeting someone, I want to work with them, but it's always been very obvious.
Seeing that the 97's are a democracy through and through, inevitably, some of these tons of songs I write will get vetoed. The first time that happened (and every time thereafter), I consoled myself with the thought that sooner or later I'd make a solo record
The landscape was snow and green ice on broken mountains. These weren't old mountains, worn down by time and weather and full of gentle ski slopes, but young, sulky, adolescent mountains. They held secret ravines and merciless crevices. One yodel out of place would attract, not the jolly echo of a lonely goatherd, but fifty tons of express-delivery snow.
Musically, I have more things in common with tons of bands that have no female members.
Oh, there's tons of resentment. That's normal. I can't control that, and I don't worry about it.
You load 16 tons, and what do you get? Another day older and deeper in debt. St. Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go. I owe my soul to the company store.
If you look at all the movies that have made tons of money, almost all of them are great movies. Even Titanic. I think Titanic is a great movie.
Being an animator, and I've directed tons of mo-cap, which really is about how do characters move through space.
