I WOULD LIKE to TAKE you SERIOUSLY, but to do so would be an affront to your INTELLIGENCE.

I love to SPEND a lot of time on my own. I can SERIOUSLY GO into my own HEAD and often love to let myself travel where I don't KNOW where I'm going.

We are OBSESSED with IMAGE. I don't THINK we should TAKE it that SERIOUSLY.

I TAKE the INVASION of my PERSONAL SPACE very SERIOUSLY.

We do not TAKE HUMOR SERIOUSLY ENOUGH.

Australians are COFFEE snobs. An influx of Italian immigrants after World War II ensured that - we probably had the word 'cappuccino' about 20 YEARS before America. Cafe CULTURE is really big for Aussies. We like to work hard, but we take our leisure TIME SERIOUSLY.

I TOOK RELIGION much too SERIOUSLY, however, and its overall effect was depressing. I would have really LIKED to discard it, but somehow I couldn't.

My GENERATION put in a lot more HOURS playing football after school than kids TODAY. These days, all the football these kids PLAY, they play at their clubs, so the clubs need to work seriously on the basic skills.

The ideas I had about SUPERNATURAL beings CAME to me the same WAY that my mathematical ideas did. So I took them seriously.

I could NEVER TAKE the idea of RELIGION very seriously.

I don't TAKE SUCCESS and failure seriously. The only THING I do seriously is march forward. If I fall, I get up and march again.

I think that there's always room for humour in MUSIC. It's something that always takes itself so seriously, which I think is a BIT of a SHAME.

It's nice if people can finally loosen up a LITTLE BIT and just go out LAUGH at silliness. I mean, people take themselves WAY too seriously sometimes.

The absence of doll BABIES in my toy chest didn't seriously influence my later DECISION not to BECOME a mother; rather, I disdained Hasbro's Baby Alive wetting doll because I was already the kind of girl who WOULD grow up to be childless by choice.
