The scariest people are usually the sweetest.

Much of my youth was spent in the parking lot or inside a Dunkin' Donuts.

I've always dreamed of having a year-round haunted house.

You know, I'm from Boston, and in Boston, you are born with a baseball bat in your hand.

Life is a series of avoiding horrible situations until ultimately you're dead. That's how I feel about things.

'Hostel' is that's how I feel about what's going on in Iraq. There's people that just want money and people are being sacrificed for it.

I remember very clearly someone saying, 'Don't shake hands with the cactus,' and I thought, 'Well, why not? What could possibly go wrong?' Shaking hands is a friendly gesture.

I think editors are excellent marketers. They know their audience and produce copy to appeal to them - they just don't call it marketing.

If you're lost, you might need to swim against the tide.

You must develop yourself to be successful

His left foot is fantastic. It's like Mozart. God gave Freddy the gift to play soccer. If he is prepared mentally and physically, nobody will stop him. (on Freddy Adu)
