My definition of confidence is how you feel about yourself, and not letting the external world define you.

It's your life... why not fill it with as much joy as possible?

People fall down, winners get up, and gold medal winners just get up faster!

When I am around someone who is a joy stealer, I say to myself, I only have to deal with you for an hour. That person has to deal with thinking that way every moment of their lives.

I was sexually abused by my step father for years and years, and that caused scars you can't see. And we know many people have the kind of scars you can't see.

Friends are people who are in your life because you feel good around them and you like them. Friends are the people you choose to be with.

You can't have real and authentic friendships unless you honor your feelings.

God has joy for you right now.

I spent so much of my life shut down from the abuse of my childhood. I didn't have friends and I didn't have connections with people.

I do a lot of to-dos and a lot of lists. I realized I had to make room for joy. So I added "to feel" items on my to-do list. That's something you can easily do.

There is strength in numbers, but organizing those numbers is one of the great challenges.

It's hard to find normal celebrities.

If I had to say what my one greatest achievement is, it's that I lasted, and I'm still happy. I hope that comes through.

Feeling is deep and still; and the word that floats on the surface Is as the tossing buoy, that betrays where the anchor is hidden.

if you don't get sick, you won't get well.

People started saying I was ignoring my country, making up stories about me. Ludicrous things, like that I throw tea on my assistants.

Scott Feiner is a soulful magnet for the fusion of Brazilian and jazz music.

As an actor, you'll have ten parts in 2015 - eight of them will go to the other actors above you and two of them you might be close to, and you try to make them as good as you can.

I don't do divas. I don't do entourages. I don't do the Hollywood crap.
