I want to go outside and play.

Especially while television I think is going through some growing pains or is in need of - I think current comedy is a bit, uh, not happening, you know?

Comedy is much more challenging, because you have to have the same level of belief but you have to make people laugh, and that's definitely a challenge.

There is such a thing as fate, but it only takes you so far. Then its up to you to make it happen.

Love her but leave her wild.

Its me own battle... and I'm seeing me body take on me mind.... BIG TIME!

He who starts behind in the great race of life must forever remain behind or run faster than the man in front.

If you can expect the unexpected, you can emotionally lick anyone.

I'm cut from a different cloth. I would never moon someone. I was raised in a good family.

I won't say 'never,' but I have no plans to write an eighth book.

The figure is still the only thing I have faith in in terms of how much emotion it's charged with and how much subject matter is there.

The world is a very dangerous place. But the world is not too dangerous of a place for the United States of America provided we act according to our principles, provided we act intelligently.
