Just when I thought it couldnt get no hotter I fell in love with the farmer's daughter

I grew up playing music and enjoying good food, friends and family in my own backyard.

If you're going through hell, Keep on going, don't slow down, If you're scared, don't show it You might get out Before the devil even knows you're there.

I have a two year old. Just turned two a couple weeks ago, and he is my main man, he is my shadow. Every spare second, I am hanging with him.

I'm very much a romantic. I'm highly attuned to an older sensibility, which I believe is alive and well. We're not that far ahead of the Romantic Age in society.

Stand up like a mountain; have faith like a rock; love like an avalanche

The idea that I really like is December 21st, 2012. Try to get a global moment of collective reflection as a way to bring about an uptick in human consciousness.

Many a man works himself to death by burying himself in his work.

It is not impermanence that makes us suffer. What makes us suffer is wanting things to be permanent when they are not.

Happiness is not mere pleasure, not the outcome of wealth. It is the result of active work rather than passive enjoyment of pleasure.
