I mean, when you grow up in the inner city and you grow up in a single-parent household, that's - those are humbling times, you know?

Don't be afraid of failure. This is the way to succeed.

We expect too much at Christmas. It's got to be magical. It's got to go right. Feasting. Fun. The perfect present. All that anticipation. Take it easy. Love's the thing. The rest is tinsel.
