I stay away from the telephone if at all possible. — © Lee Trevino
I stay away from the telephone if at all possible.
I have this disease late at night sometimes, involving alcohol and the telephone. I get drunk, and I drive my wife away with a breath like mustard gas and roses. And then, speaking gravely and elegantly into the telephone, I ask the telephone operators to connect me with this friend or that one, from whom I have not heard in years.
How could I tell the doctor what was wrong with me? I didn't understand it myself. I couldn't articulate the pain; it was the pain of nothingness. My fear was of the weather, the atmosphere, the very air. What good did safety tips do me now? 'Avoid water, metal objects, rooftops; stay off the telephone in a storm, don't think glass can protect you; even if a storm was 8 miles away, you're still not safe from a strike. Avoid life perhaps that was the answer. The number one safety tip, stay away from it all.
Personally, I have as little to do with politicians as possible. The ones that I've met I've found very boring. They're extremely egotistical, incredibly self-important. If I can help it, I try to stay as far away from them as possible.
I stay as far away from politics as possible, or any controversy.

I have a great team in Nashville that works so hard to organize my life and stay way ahead of the game. We're just really open and have a lot of communication and dialogue about making it our goal to keep me home as much as possible - as little time away from the kids as possible.
When I am not shooting, I stay as far away from make up as possible and let my skin breathe!
I think I'm careful. My goal is to try to stay away as much from opinion journalism as possible.
I love the beach and rock climbing and boxing and nature, so I like to stay away from my phone as much as possible.
I learned early on, stay away from politics, stay away from religion and don't talk about sports. Those three right there will get you in trouble.
There's a rule in Hollywood: stay away from water and stay away from snow, and I had both.
I try to stay away from the craft services table on set! That's probably why I am able to still get work in this business: I stay away from junk food.
If you are a fish, stay away from the fishhook; if you are a lover, stay away from the suspicion.
E-mail is far more convenient than the telephone, as far as I'm concerned. I would throw my phone away if I could get away with it.
