I'm often very relaxed when I'm on the wire.

There's weight on me to raise the bar, to carry on that legacy. But that's what drives me. Making sure that no one ever forgets who the Wallendas are.

I feel like I'm on cloud nine right now.

One thing that was passed on from generation to generation in my family, over seven generations in 200 years, was never give up. That's the way we live.

If you take suede leather and put it on a piece of steel, and put moisture on it, it actually sticks.

I've trained all my life not to be distracted by distractions.

I do everything I do to pay tribute to my great-grandfather.

I'm always looking for the next major hurdle and doing something that the world has never seen.

I'm one of those people who always tries to overachieve. I want to do more. I want to do bigger things.

It's Niagara Falls. It's one of the most beautiful natural wonders in the world. Who wouldn't want to walk across it?

I respect what I do deeply. I don't get nervous to the point of fear.

Humanity must need to continue because humanity is about humans and humans are nothing without humanity.

I felt a wish never to leave that room - a wish that dawn might never come, that my present frame of mind might never change.

To act as though we have hope is to keep hope alive

Believing in the sovereignty of God injects courage in the act of desire.

I watched my mom and dad build everything that matters - a family, a home and a good name.

It's actually meditative to sit in a character for an extended period of time, realizing what your relationship is to who you're playing and then letting go, just being there.

Finally, as I've said, this is - why are you talking about Jewish women's wigs and people wearing turbans? That has nothing whatsoever to do with niqab.

Approaching the treadmill I tell myself, 'Okay, it's just 10 minutes, after that you can get off the thing'. That's no time at all.

I stick to simple themes. Love. Hate. No nuances. I stay away from psychoanalyst's couch scenes. Couches are good for one thing.

The right time to die is never exactly now.
