Whether I played marbles, whether I played football or slam anything else, I wanted to excel.

I've always wanted to improve on the idea of living well, In moderation, wine is good for you - mentally, physically, and spiritually.

Wine to me is passion. It's family and friends. It's warmth of heart and generosity of spirit.

I say to consumers: instead of relying totally on critics, drink what you like and like what you drink.

Even more importantly, it's wine, food and the arts. Incorporating those three enhances the quality of life.

My path was simple: Follow your passion. Pour in your heart and soul. Settle for nothing less than excellence. And with enough hard work and faith in yourself, you can realize your dream.

I always knew that food and wine were vital, with my mother being Italian and a good cook.

I want to make wines that harmonize with food - wines that almost hug your tongue with gentleness.

I feel blessed. So many men and women search and search but never find their passion, their calling, their sense of mission that would ignite their hearts and fill their lives with meaning and joy.

In both life and work, stay flexible. Whether in a country, a company, or a family, the same holds true: Dictatorship and rigidity rarely work. Freedom and elasticity do.

Wine has been with civilized man from the beginning.

You never know how the tough times you are going through today will inspire someone else tomorrow.

Being alone is easier than having a family. When you have a family, you are responsible to each other. It’s easier to navigate the world without that burden.

Look at all the people who received miracles from Jesus during His ministry on earth. Not a single one of them deserved it.

What was frustrating about Armageddon was the time I spent not doing anything. It was a big special effects film, and I wasn't crazy about pretending I was in outer space. It feels ridiculous.

The worst thing ever that you have to explain your joke because I was very disappointed trying to explain why the joke is funny for the interrogator.

Human reasoning can never answer the mysteries of our lives.

I am a believer, I am believer that we shape and create the life that we choose, and I believe that the tool that we have to do that, is our mind.

God designed the stomach to eject what is bad for it, but not the human brain.

Watch out for those who put themselves above you. The real ones point to Christ in you.
