I try to not focus on what people expect from me.

I like happiness, and when people try to destroy that, it winds me up.

I try to hire people I don't have to motivate. But I do motivate the people working with and for me.

Picabia is a very old painter who some people try to connect me to, but I refuse such comparisons very well.

Some people think wearing powder ages them, but try it anyway. For me it mattes my makeup and blends it well.

When I got my first publishing deal, I felt some responsibility to try to write with the people that they were asking me to write with.

Everyone says corruption is everywhere, but for me it seems strange to say that and then not try to put the people guilty of that corruption away.

I try to tell all the - not even the kids, even people older than me - to just be themselves. Don't wear what I wear 'cause I wear it; wear what you like.

Of course there are certain things that get to me, but I try and lead by example and show people that, especially with haters, that you should just ignore them.

Probably I, like a lot of people, became a writer in imitation of or in homage to the books I enjoyed. When you're so captivated by something, you think, could I do that? Hmm, let me try.

Put me on telly, and I think I have a relaxation on camera that makes an audience relax, too. It's not a conscious thing. Cameras don't bother me, whereas other people try to perform to them.

I usually suggest that people do their steady-state cardio on the days that they're not with me; they really don't need a cardio babysitter. When working with athletes, I try to pair the interval with the exertion patterns of their respective sport.
