I have the world’s largest collection of seashells. I keep it on all the beaches of the world… perhaps you’ve seen it.

I am making a collection of the things my opponents have found me to be and, when this election is over, I am going to open a museum and put them on display.

Oh yes, I love to do shoes. I’m not a fetishist but I love to do shoes.

My paintings have gotten to be pretty popular and I’ve taken a little bit more interest in painting the last few years. In fact, my novel that I wrote not too long ago, ‚The Hornet’s Nest,‘ I painted the cover picture for it and I do a good bit of painting now.

I love singing. I love it, and it doesn’t feel like a chore. It’s an expression.

I used to like to set different film clips to classical music, not even my own songs, but make little movies.

My dad kind of liked racing and motorsports, but wasn’t a big fan, it wasn’t like he watched every race or whatever.

I would get out of school and go straight to my computer to create beats.

Today is life-the only life you are sure of. Make the most of today. Get interested in something. Shake yourself awake. Develop a hobby. Let the winds of enthusiasm sweep through you. Live today with gusto.

Once I get on a puzzle, I can’t get off.

Until I began to learn to draw, I was never much interested in looking at art.

Nothing scares me more than people with some doll collection.

I have been practicing archery for a long time; a bow and arrow helps me to unwind.

I think this is the most extraordinary collection of talent, of human knowledge, that has ever been gathered at the White House – with the possible exception of when Thomas Jefferson dined alone.

I had a good time boxing. I enjoyed it – and I may come back.

A collection is not just one basic idea. It comes from something that is in the air, something you suddenly like and put down on paper and then work out.

Beware the hobby that eats.

I like sitting and writing with my buddies.

I used to be a great fan of doing crosswords. When you’re fiddling around with anagrams, you get wonderful jumbles of syllables that become interesting.

My grandfather once ventured upon publishing a volume of hymns. I never heard anyone speak in their favour or argue that they ought to have been sung in the congregation. In that volume, he promised a second if the first should prove acceptable. We forgive him the first collection because he did not inflict another.

I do my very best to avoid shark fin.

We do not exploit our dolphins for profit.

You don’t have to be a renowned artist like Q-Tip to try your hand at poetry. You don’t need any special equipment – that’s the beauty of it.

I spend a lot of time reading.

The two offices of memory are collection and distribution.

I love making music. That’s what I love to do. So I don’t feel like there’s any need to take a break unless I want to.

I guess there is nothing that will get your mind off everything like golf. I have never been depressed enough to take up the game, but they say you get so sore at yourself you forget to hate your enemies.

Sponges grow in the ocean. That just kills me. I wonder how much deeper the ocean would be if that didn’t happen.

I was acting when I was playing baseball.

Anything that encourages people to pick up an instrument and play, I’m fully behind.

I love tango, and I used to dance when I was young.

Playing basketball all my life, I’ve collected a lot of different basketball shoes. It’s pretty much all I wear.
