I love San Francisco and Brighton has something of San Francisco about it. It’s by the sea, there’s a big gay community, a feeling of people being there because they enjoy their life there.

I myself have been on my own and utterly independent since I graduated. I haven’t belonged to any company or any system. It isn’t easy to live like this in Japan.

In the past there were people who were not rich but contented with their living style, laughing and happy all day. But when the new rich people appear, people look at them and ask, ‚why don’t I have a life like that too, a beautiful house, car and garden,‘ and they abandon their values.

If we could give every individual the right amount of nourishment and exercise, not too little and not too much, we would have found the safest way to health.

My concern is that contention is becoming accepted as a way of life.

Sometimes you have the trends that’s not that cool. You may have certain artists portraying these trends and don’t really have that lifestyle, and then it gives off the wrong thing. And it becomes kinda corny after awhile. It’s really about keeping hip-hop original and pushing away the corniness in it.

I’m generous. I give good tips. It’s just – the way I live my life, ironically enough, is: I don’t want anything. I’m not a consumer. I don’t crave objects.

Before finding music, I didn’t have too many aspirations. I wanted to hang out, make a little money from whatever I had to do.

I believe that every human has a finite number of heartbeats. I don’t intend to waste any of mine running around doing exercises.

You should hurry up and acquire the cigar habit. It’s one of the major happinesses. And so much more lasting than love, so much less costly in emotional wear and tear.

Sheep, like people, are ungovernable when hungry.

I have to be on such a strict diet constantly.

I’m at peace with what I’m doing, I feel good with what I wake up doing and about my lifestyle.

In my normal life I’m a very unadventurous person.

I am in the fighting game. I don’t care about anything else. I don’t watch the news, I don’t care about politics, I don’t care about other sports. I don’t care about anything I don’t need to care about. This is my sport: it is my life. I study it; I think about it all the time. Nothing else matters.

I don’t have a need for speed. I’m not that guy.

People don’t want to hear about me having leather walls or gold toilets.

People are using Windows PCs more than they watch TV now.

Before you try to keep up with the Joneses, be sure they’re not trying to keep up with you.

As soon as you set foot on a yacht you belong to some man, not to yourself, and you die of boredom.

You don’t have to turn on the TV set. You don’t have to work on the Internet. It’s up to you.

I like actors very much, but to marry one would be like marrying your brother. You look too much alike in the mirror.

As a lifestyle you always being the focal point is innately unhealthy.

I have quite a decent constitution in spite of all my abuse of it and my advanced years. I’m still quite robust.

Wives are people who feel they don’t dance enough.

In a magazine, one can get – from cover to cover – 15 to 20 different ideas about life and how to live it.

You can live to be a hundred if you give up all the things that make you want to live to be a hundred.

This way of life is worth defending.

I’m a day-to-day-type person.

Our growing softness, our increasing lack of physical fitness, is a menace to our security.

Leave all the afternoon for exercise and recreation, which are as necessary as reading. I will rather say more necessary because health is worth more than learning.

Milk is for babies. When you grow up you have to drink beer.

I think the thing we see is that as people are using video games more, they tend to watch passive TV a bit less. And so using the PC for the Internet, playing video games, is starting to cut into the rather unbelievable amount of time people spend watching TV.

I don’t believe you could be a 39-year-old quarterback in the NFL and eat cheeseburgers every day. I want to be able to do what I love to do for a long time.

Maybe some people can wake up and play PlayStation all day, but that’s never been me.

If you are lucky enough to have lived in Paris as a young man, then wherever you go for the rest of your life it stays with you, for Paris is a moveable feast.

I realize that many elements of the Buddhist teaching can be found in Christianity, Judaism, Islam. I think if Buddhism can help, it is the concrete methods of practice.

I have a nice office. I have a nice house… So I’m not denying myself some great things. I just don’t happen to have expensive hobbies.

We have to rediscover the eternal values and then live them out.

I’ve always been a little homemaker.

I’m not looking to freak people out – eating rodents or bugs. I don’t do that anymore.

I do not take a single newspaper, nor read one a month, and I feel myself infinitely the happier for it.

The saddest thing I can imagine is to get used to luxury.

Never get out of bed before noon.

Christianity is a lifestyle. And being a Christian is more than a label.

If I wouldn’t have found Courtney, I probably would have carried on with a bisexual lifestyle.

What’s fascinating is, people in Washington would rather spend time in Hollywood, and people in Hollywood would rather spend time in Washington.

A song has to take on character, shape, body and influence people to an extent that they use it for their own devices. It must affect them not just as a song, but as a lifestyle.

A bachelor’s life is a fine breakfast, a flat lunch, and a miserable dinner.

The glamour of it all! New York! America!

The dieting wars have got to stop.

It is the superfluous things for which men sweat, – superfluous things that wear our togas theadbare, that force us to grow old in camp, that dash us upon foreign shores.

One of my lungs is half gone, and the other half, because I smoked for years, has a lesion. So I can’t swim anymore and had the swimming pool covered over. Now it’s what I call the dance pavilion, and so I and my friends sit out and put music on and watch people dance.

I have talked with great men, and I do not see how they differ from others.

I have ‚Parents‘ magazine in my home.

I don’t know if I could do this with the same energy, and in the same way – all the costume changes and glitter and hair and makeup – all the time. When I’m in my 50s, I kind of think I’ll want to be in a garden.

I am a walking piece of art every day, with my dreams and my ambitions forward at all times in an effort to inspire my fans to lead their life in that way.

My rule of life prescribed as an absolutely sacred rite smoking cigars and also the drinking of alcohol before, after and if need be during all meals and in the intervals between them.

Attention to health is life’s greatest hindrance.

I think every chef, not just in America, but across the world, has a double-edged sword – two jackets, one that’s driven, a self-confessed perfectionist, thoroughbred, hate incompetence and switch off the stove, take off the jacket and become a family man.

Sometimes, women in families put themselves last until it manifests itself in their own health.
