More From Beyonce Knowles

That's what is so great about being able to record a 13-song album. you can do a very eclectic group of songs. you do have some almost pop songs in there, but you do have your traditional country, story songs. you have your ballads, your happy songs, your sad songs, your love songs, and your feisty songs.
Country Song Eclectic Style
I have a hard time writing. most writers have a hard time writing. i have a harder time than most because i'm lazier than most. [...] the other problem i have is fear of writing. the act of writing puts you in confrontation with yourself, which is why i think writers assiduously avoid writing. [...] not writing is more of a psychological problem than a writing problem. all the time i'm not writing i feel like a criminal. [...] it's horrible to feel felonious every second of the day. especially when it goes on for years. it's much more relaxing actually to work.
Writing Hard Times Thinking
I've been writing for a long time, since the late '60s. but it hasn't been in the same form. i used to write scripts for television. i wrote for my comedy act. then i wrote screenplays, and then i started writing new yorker essays, and then i started writing plays. i didn't start writing prose, really, until the new yorker essays, but they were comic. i didn't start writing prose, really, until the '90s. in my head, there was a link between everything. one thing led to another.
Writing Play Long
I think i copied my style from louis armstrong. because i used to like the big volume and the big sound that bessie smith got when she sang ... so i liked the feeling that louis got and i wanted the big volume that bessie smith got. but i found that it didn't work with me, because i didn't have a big voice. so anyway between the two of them i sorta got billie holiday.
Holiday Thinking Two
Destiny ... a word which means more than we can find any definitions for. it is a word which can have no meaning in a mechanical universe: if that which is wound up must run down, what destiny is there in that? destiny is not necessitarianism, and it is not caprice: it is something essentially meaningful. each man has his destiny, though some men are undoubtedly "men of destiny" in a sense in which most men are not.
Meaningful Running Destiny
It was a wonderful time to be young. the 1960s didn't end until about 1976. we all believed in make love not war - we were idealistic innocents, darling, despite the drugs and sex. we were sweet lovely people who wanted to throw out all the staid institutions who placed money and wars above all else. when you're young you think that's how life works. none of us were famous, we were broke. we didn't think they'd be writing books about us in 30 years. we were just kids doing the right thing.

A more secret, sweet, and overpowering beauty appears to man when his heart and mind open to the sentiment of virtue. then he is instructed in what is set above him. he learns that his being is without bound; that to the good, to the perfect, he is born, low as he now lies in evil and weakness.

I give the ball some sweet talk. i tell it that this isn't going to hurt a bit. i'm a friend and all i'm going to do is give it a nice little ride.

Boxing has always been work to me, a job. if i could say anything to a youngster taking up boxing it would be to "be smart and not take a lot of punches". it's called the sweet science for a reason. hit and not be hit, make a lot of money without taking a lot of punishment. that's what it's about.
