I'm into cotton underwear. I don”t need cheetah print leather to make me feel sexy.

Because of my Portuguese heritage, I have an interest in all of the instrumentation that comes from Portugal and Brazil as well.

I remember attaching a wire clothing hanger to the antenna of my radio in my bedroom, so I could get the frequency and get that station and listen to the top 10 every night.

Any time you turn off and let someone else make any artistic decision for you, you make a mistake.

I have a photograph of my grandfather driving a donkey cart barefoot.

I can't understand marketing. I think it's because I never looked at what I do as a job. I've rebelled against that and I will continue to.

I'm aware of - and embrace - my masculine energy. Sometimes I have too much yang.

I definitely believe that we really need to stop putting things in masculine and feminine boxes and realize that men and women both contain masculine and feminine energy.

I live by fallacy. 'If I get enough nice Ikea furniture, I'll be a grown-up.' Then I catch myself. Or, 'If I get off by myself, away from the stress of modern life, I'll be OK.' Then I catch myself.

You know what it's like to wake up in the middle of the night with a vivid dream? And you know that if you don't have a pencil and pad by the bed, it will be completely gone by the next morning. Sometimes it's important to wake up and stop dreaming. When a really great dream shows up, grab it.

Don’t take life too seriously and always remember: it is just a passing fad.

I can always grow a little bit, and try to do something different. So I'm always looking for what's out there - the potential.

I like to do things that I develop from the ground up.

Way, way, way back I played a little bit, but I am definitely not a golfer. You know, it just takes too much time anyway during the course of the day.

One thing I like about Argentina, they only cook with salt; that's it.

Sometimes you don't prepare much. I mean, when I did 'Lonesome Dove' way back I rode horses day and night for like three or four months, and that got me ready for that.

When I'm at home in Virginia, I become more hermit-like. I like my own home.

Well, it's like my movie, 'The Apostle.' Some people in the North don't get that movie. They think that, in the South, if you don't shout, you can't play one of those guys.

I never eat salad. I make sure I don't put a lot of junk into my system, but I hate vegetables!

Even now I will go to, like, an industry event, and all the ladies will be over here and all the guys over here, and I will go to the guys' table and sit because I just feel I can have a much better conversation over there. And that's automatic; it's not prejudice.

Robyn is who I am. Rihanna - that's an idea of who I am.

I drink a lot of coconut water. It balances out all the other toxic stuff I put into my body.

More than anything, I like a jacket. You can do anything with a great jacket, the bigger the better. You can have any silhouette underneath. It gives you an attitude. It makes a gown look cool.

I think I'm like most people - we fear the unknown and the things that have yet to come to pass, which are the very things that don't deserve to be feared. When you give God complete control, it's very hard not to be fearless.
