One of the points about distractions is that everything that they do is destabilizing.

I like to get paid for doing basic research, so it's pleasant to write some nonfiction about it.

Hapiness can only be found if you can free yourself of all other distractions.

Saying you have a political solution is like saying you can write a pop song that's going to stay at the top of the list forever. I don't have many illusions about this, but I'm not cynical about it.

They are distractions, but they are distractions for those three individuals more than anyone else. You can see with grown men in our league, you have to overcome any type of distraction. The (New Orleans) Saints are the best example with what they overcame to win (at Carolina). I don't think it will have an effect on the team.

In America everything's about who's number one today.
