I started singing at age five and haven't stopped since.

Sometimes I'll flip through a magazine and do a double take when I see myself in it, it's just crazy!

It's totally weird to see myself on a billboard!

I take all of my life lessons, which some people might call 'mistakes,' and apply them to my future so that I keep growing.

The people that go on 'American Idol' do want some recognition and fame.

I'm a really emotional person so I cry for everything.

I'm a huge shoe person, and I have lots of shoes.

I wear a lot of black, but not in the goth way, I just really love black. I'll never be in pink or purples.

I never thought I would become a television host, but I never thought anybody would pay me to just talk.

I love every kind of music.

I like things in my hair - big feather pieces.

Life is a heroic faith.

Now that I look back, I realize that a life predicated on being obedient is a very comfortable life indeed. Living in such a way reduces to a minimum one's own need to think.

In the short run, the market is a voting machine, but in the long run it is a weighing machine.

It's not a competency if you don't know the edge of it.

If what you're doing is valuable for people, they will find a way to pay you to keep doing it.

I don't like travelling if I know I have to write about it.

I like to think I'm like water that adapts to its surroundings and eventually finds a way in.

Each indecision brings its own delays and days are lost lamenting over lost days... What you can do or think you can do, begin it. For boldness has magic, power, and genius in it.

You can't take life for granted. I am lucky to have everything I've ever wanted. I've got a beautiful wife, a job I've always dreamed of...and my face on my own t-shirts.

The most important thing in the Olympic Games is not winning but taking part; the essential thing in life is not conquering but fighting well.
