• I just started doing this one-man show, and I wanted to be able to score it, so I bought a guitar, and got a keyboard and got a harmonica. I remember when I started that I didn't understand why a harmonica had different letters on them.

• I'm also always thinking about the score as a recording, as opposed to a performance that can be recreated in a live environment. Some of what I write could of course be played in a concert hall, but for the needs of a film I don't consider that.

• When I'm writing a score, I'm constantly looking for ways to improve on it, even when I think it's working well. I don't give up on things, and am always trying to make incremental improvements, which means I never finish writing a score early!

• The whole concept of higher education is negated unless the sole criterion used to determine if students qualify is the grades they score on standardized tests. Education is purely an issue of learning - we can no longer afford to have it polluted by damn politics. Leave pollution up to the politicians

• The text for me is the musical score. I'm the instrument. My voice is the instrument. My voice is articulating the sounds which are coming through the imaginings and visitations in my head, and I'm making these sounds but I've selected them from an ocean of sound.

• So long as public schools are treated as places that exist to provide guaranteed jobs to members of the teachers' unions, do not be surprised to see American students continuing to score lower on international tests than students in countries that spend a lot less per pupil than we do.

• Behind every liberal philanthropist fortune is a huge capitalist score. Bill Gates and Warren Buffett can afford now to be liberal - an expensive indulgence - because in their early incarnations they were no-holds-barred capitalists who made lots of enemies conducting business without mercy and in search of pure profit.

• La promesa del capitalismo estadounidense es que hace a la gente más rica, más libre y más independiente. Pero desde la introducción de la Fed, la moneda en la que los estadounidenses llevan la cuenta de resultados ha desvirtuado tanto las cifras que apenas sabemos si estamos ganando o perdiendo. El dólar que conocíamos cuando éramos niños, en los años 50, sólo vale hoy una décima parte.

• Los liberales se aferran a la idea de que los detractores de la asistencia social están motivados por la codicia o por un desprecio insensible hacia los menos afortunados. De hecho, durante los veinticinco años que siguieron a la declaración de guerra contra la pobreza de Lyndon Johnson, los contribuyentes estadounidenses gastaron 3 billones de dólares en todas las ayudas imaginables para los pobres, los ancianos y los enfermos. Las fundaciones privadas gastaron miles de millones más, y las organizaciones benéficas privadas y religiosas aún más. Sin embargo, como Ronald Raegan bromeó más tarde, "en la guerra contra la pobreza, la pobreza ganó".

• Naturally I've known girlies form an attachment to the younger male before now, but in the tennis score of the bedroom most girls in my experience would rather Love Thirty or Love Forty than Love Fifteen. Men, of course, are a whole other issue; they start at Love All and stay there until they're dragged from the court

• Como guionista de un gran éxito y de un gran fracaso apestoso, siempre me he preguntado si alguien sabe lo que hace falta para crear un gran musical. Cuando un espectáculo es un éxito, los críticos tropiezan sin saber a quién alabar y aplaudir más fuerte. Es esa maravillosa partitura, esas letras urbanas, esa estrella insustituible. Pero sólo cuando un espectáculo es un fracaso, alguien se fija en el autor del libro. Y entonces siempre es culpa nuestra.

• The reason why Englishmen are the best husbands in the world is because they want to be faithful. A Frenchman or an Italian will wake up in the morning and wonder what girl he will meet. An Englishman wakes up and wonders what the cricket score is.

• Apparently almost anyone can do a better job of educating children than our so-called 'educators' in the public schools. Children who are home-schooled by their parents also score higher on tests than children educated in the public schools. ... Successful education shows what is possible, whether in charter schools, private schools, military schools or home-schooling. The challenge is to provide more escape hatches from failing public schools, not only to help those students who escape, but also to force these institutions to get their act together before losing more students and jobs.

• Arresting a single drunk or a single vagrant who has harmed no identifiable person seems unjust, and in a sense it is. But failing to do anything about a score of drunks or a hundred vagrants may destroy an entire community.

• He came from a rock band and even though he was not a lead singer, I knew he was musical just from that. I also knew that he was intelligent enough from talking to him, that he would not play this part unless he could handle it vocally. I knew he was not about to get up there and have to have his voice dubbed or come off croaking. So Johnny Depp casted Johnny Depp. I trusted him entirely. I knew that he was no fool and he would only do it if he felt he could handle it. I told him to listen to the score carefully and if you can handle it, fine by me, and I was right.

• It wasn't like we cut songs out; we cut bits of songs, bits of action or bits of whatever. So we would have to go back in get a full orchestra re-orchestrate it, re-score it, re-record it. It's a massive job. But, if there's a demand we can always discuss it.

• The greatest player in the world. Ronaldinho? Absolutely. I just can't get enough of watching him play - he's a delight for the eye. His technique is incredible, his touch, his vision, he scores and he orchestrates everything. He's just the complete player. I know how difficult it is for a forward playing at this level, but for him it's so easy. He does it every single game and it's just unbelievable to watch.
