If you eat the same cereal every day it's gonna get old. And if I had thought about snowboarding every day, I would have quit a long time ago.

Some people attach snowboards to their feet, very few attach them to their souls.

I totally forget about snowboarding in the summertime.

I wasn't your average kid. I was signing autographs in Japan at 12.

I personally think skateboarding is harder because it has so many moving parts. With snowboarding, your feet are strapped to your board.

I’m a big fan of doing what you are really bad at. A lot.

You take a crash, you get back up and next time you succeed and that's a great feeling.

I remember thinking that I'd way rather give my parents my money, and not have to like have them go to work anymore, you know what I mean. Because I'd way rather spend more time with them.

Usually the thing that signifies that I'm done with the winter and all that is that I start skateboarding.

I think the way to become the best is to just have fun.

The hardest thing about skateboarding is consistency: The slightest flick of your foot or gust of wind can send your board flying, so it's really anybody's game out there.

I decided that if I was never going to sell anything as long as I lived, I might as well do what I want to do 'cause then at least I would've done what I wanted to do in life. What's that worth?

Wisdom is the supreme part of happiness.

I love the ocean and have a passion for surfing, even though I'm not very good at it. I like getting out there and paddling around.

I don't care what the American people think, I own the congress!

We are at a stage in history in which remolding society is one of the great challenges facing all of us in the West.

It's much harder when you're writing about your life, than when you're writing fiction.

I've always got the road. Stand-up makes you so autonomous and self-sufficient that it really helps with that part of show business.

Sometimes the most modest changes can bring about enormous effects.

The art of lighting the stage consists of putting light where you want it and taking it away from where you don't want it.

You cannot have well people on a sick planet.
