I can't really describe a trick as much as I just feel it.

Some people attach snowboards to their feet, very few attach them to their souls.

I totally forget about snowboarding in the summertime.

I wasn't your average kid. I was signing autographs in Japan at 12.

I personally think skateboarding is harder because it has so many moving parts. With snowboarding, your feet are strapped to your board.

I’m a big fan of doing what you are really bad at. A lot.

You take a crash, you get back up and next time you succeed and that's a great feeling.

I remember thinking that I'd way rather give my parents my money, and not have to like have them go to work anymore, you know what I mean. Because I'd way rather spend more time with them.

Usually the thing that signifies that I'm done with the winter and all that is that I start skateboarding.

I think the way to become the best is to just have fun.

The hardest thing about skateboarding is consistency: The slightest flick of your foot or gust of wind can send your board flying, so it's really anybody's game out there.

Every day of life is an adventure. Don’t fear to dare and never forget to enjoy it.

Before language, cavemen simply grunted, and then they used the club. Communication changed that. It's the mechanism that created civilization and prevents its own destruction.

You can observe a lot by watching.

Civilization is the progress toward a society of privacy. The savage's whole existence is public, ruled by the laws of his tribe. Civilization is the process of setting man free from men.

The gun legislation was doomed the minute it became associated with the words common sense.

It was his eyes. When you looked into them, you saw chained violence baring teeth and claws back at you.

It's almost charity work, what people have done, turning other people on to my music.

But I have been watching the crows since childhood. I loved the colour on its face. It can count up to seven – number seven it can count. They have made an observation. They are very clever birds.

These martyrs of patriotism gave their lives for an idea.
