I'm HOPELESS at SMALL talk and have a PROBLEM MAKING eye CONTACT.

I BEGAN as a violinist, not a COMPOSER. Thus my CONTACT with orchestral musicians, with the source of MUSIC, is very important.

They BECOME the keepers of the MYSTERY. They PLACE themselves between the communicants of the religion, and the IMMEDIATE experience. And then they dictate the terms on which you can have contact with this WONDERFUL mystery. We don't dictate those terms.

I have been listening to the Stooges' self-titled first ALBUM for well over half my life, and it REMAINS one of the most exciting and essential records I have ever had the good FORTUNE to COME into contact with.

The MIND of the scholar, if he WOULD LEAVE it large and LIBERAL, should COME in contact with other minds.

Theatre is my PASSION and first love for it is in this MEDIUM that I get to feel human-to-human contact.

You can think as Einstein as MUCH as you want, but when you come in contact with ANOTHER PERSON as a work unit of some kind, you have to think as one. You have to FIGURE out all the things that you've studied and that your mind is telling you, and then you have to figure out how to make it work as one, or you have a BROKEN down team.

Some GUYS say beauty is only SKIN deep. But when you WALK into a party, you don't see SOMEBODY's brain. The initial contact has to be the sniffing.

It is the police of America who are on the FRONT lines, who are on the streets, who are in the daily contact with American citizens, who TRANSLATE the DREAMS of American citizens when they succeed and frustrate the dreams when they FAIL.

If you go to my shows, 90 PERCENT of my fans are females between the ages of eleven and eighteen. People look at me like a living MANNEQUIN; all of these GIRLS want pink HAIR. They want the cool makeup and contact lenses and cool clothes.

The first time you CATCH a fish, it's AMAZING. You make contact with this WHOLE other world that exists, HIDDEN, under the WATER.

I do FEEL my African SIDE, but I've always wanted to play for GERMANY. Ghana did contact me, but I told them and my dad that I was SURE I wanted to play for Germany.

The role of a coach is varied. We have many TASKS. To be a visionary that always looks a little bit towards the future: How should the team DEVELOP? How should it PLAY at a tournament? Of course you also have to be the CONTACT person for the players, where social competence also plays a role.

It's a lose-lose situation to get in a confrontation on the STREET. If you can break CONTACT and get away, break contact and get away. That's what you should learn SELF-DEFENSE for.
