“I admire people who are completely at ease with themselves. But I don'...” — Matt Lauer Quote

I admire people who are completely at ease with themselves. But I don't have that feeling.

I'm not going to whine or get depressed. Who's going to feel sorry for me? Nobody.

I kid my friends who are golfers, and I say, 'If you ever hear me complain, hit me in the butt with a putter' because I have no reason to complain. Even on days when you don't like what you see in the paper, I have no reason to complain.

The Iraqis have once again failed to meet a deadline for a final draft of the constitution.

Early on, I had five jobs in a row where I was either fired or canceled.

When I look at women, older than I am, in their 50s, 60, 70s, 80s, and I see women that I admire, I think, 'Oh, I get it; that's how I'm going to be.' I'm not scared. I want to be that.

Now, I admire The Sims as a game, but from a story viewpoint, there are two glaring problems. First, your relationship with those characters is like they're bugs in a jar. There's no empathy. And secondly, you've got this clunky, chemistry-set interface between you and them, with bars to show how tired or angry they are. It's all tell not show.

You always admire what you really don't understand.

All I can say is that I did admire 'The Lives of Others', which I thought was really about something and beautifully done.
