There is something about laughter that can take away all the darkness.

My dream is to have a house on the beach, even just a little shack somewhere so I can wake up, have coffee, look at dolphins, be quiet and breathe the air.

If you're too in your head and you're not in the moment, life passes you by.

I've been vegetarian for so long now that I don't remember anything different, so it's easy for me to put meals together and make sure my family is eating healthy, too.

Take no moment for granted.

I laughed more in the hospital than I ever have in my life, making fun of all the weird things that were happening to me.

The person who I have my child with is going to be the right person.

I think maintaining relationships with my friends, my mother, my manager, they're all important.

I wasn't one to go out and buy a new car and stereo system and expensive clothes. My mom helped keep me grounded.

I was just shaking and then also immediately, I had to go into 'take-care-of-business-mode' which included a change to a more healthy diet.

Mind your mind, soon, you will mine from it.

I always felt that with luxury came cruelty. I do my best to live a happy, prosperous life, but I don't indulge in a lot of luxury.

I owe what is best in my own development to the impression made by Kant's works, the sacred writings of the Hindus, and Plato.

Can't do it, simply cause underneath 'em is too ugly.

Man is a fighting animal; his thoughts are his banners, and it is a failure of nerve in him if they are only thoughts.

We are, all of us, poor wretches, and those who prefer not to understand this are even worse off than the rest of us.

There's nothing wrong with the free-enterprise system. But it has to have some compassion.

Everyone has a story; everyone hides his past as a means of self-preservation. Some just do it better, and more thoroughly, than others.

The one place I've seen something really come together is in editing. Sometimes you can save pieces in a way that you're really shocked.
