If I had children, I would be very selfish. I wouldn't be out doing things. But by not having kids, it makes me freer to travel the world and talk about things I feel are important.

There was a golden retriever who saved countless lives on September 11 by going back in to find people. His companion was in a wheelchair. He got him out and kept going back in to save others.

No animal has to suffer for me to live.

Of all the projects I've worked on, I've never worked with another director like Billy Friedkin. I think he's a genius.

We have a deep need to affiliate, to be around people, and no creature on earth spends as much of its life depending on others as we do

Its difficult to understand why people don't realize that pets are gifts to mankind

I have some unfinished business to complete at the University of Oregon.

In life, there are no shortcuts to joy. Anything that is worth pursuing requires us to suffer just a little bit.

Doubt remains a luxury I won't do without.

I wish my name was Tom Kite.

Keep moving. Don't stop. But don't rush. Don't race around. Sure and steady gets you there every time.

An important key to investing is to remember that stocks are not lottery tickets.
