I think that when John started out, he had the desire to be a voice on the radio, but he didn't anticipate a grueling tour schedule and all that. I don't think he necessarily wanted to play live. I had a book listing the gigs that they played back then, and it was unbelievable. In the late '60s he was still driving to concerts himself. (Adams Phillip)
[Devito, with the help of director Quentin Tarantino, persuaded the actor to make this one.] He couldn't convince me at first because I wasn't familiar with the book, and then he had Quentin call me, ... There were a lot of parts of the book that needed to be in the script, and when they corrected that and added them, I said yes. (Adams Phillip)
I was known as 'Ray, Head of Security' in the bookstores and stuff where he was signing books. I just spent an enormous amount of time with him and watched him like a hawk. Studied him. I tried to steal his soul. (Adams Phillip)
It is true what Rimbaud said; If you think a book is strong enough, try it at the ocean, in the wind, at the waves. If the book can resist the ocean, then it exists. Otherwise, throw it away. (Adams Phillip)
I'm not into sci-fi. But I think Lord of the Rings was spectacular. (Adams Phillip)

I have a library - have a huge library with all my books. (Adams Phillip)
Comic books and The Chronicles of Narnia. My mother used to read those to me and my twin brother growing up. (Adams Phillip)
If you read my books, especially the Star Trek books and the Quest for Tomorrow books, you'll see in them the core theme of the basic humanistic questions that Star Trek asked. (Adams Phillip)
It is an entertaining series of books - I have a font of stories that I think should engross you - hopefully not gross you. And I like to write. (Adams Phillip)
With each one of these books, I've worked with somebody else and made no secret of it. (Adams Phillip)
I've read some scripts, but I don't read as many books as I should. (Adams Phillip)

I look at my first appointment book from 1965 and I get dizzy. I was constantly in a phone booth calling photographers. (Adams Phillip)
I read tons of books. (Adams Phillip)
After 19 years of experimenting, a thousand mistakes, over 400 books, at least 200 bad diets... and a partridge in a pear tree, I have found what I believe are the best answers this planet has to offer about living a healthy, happy, and balanced life. (Adams Phillip)
The book was a help as there was some great stuff about her and Kate Winslet's character, Hester. They're quite sexual together. Hester lies in bed with hot thighs, thinking of her! It was tricky to try and get clues as to who Claire was. (Adams Phillip)
