“All people have is hope. That’s what brings the next day and whatever that day may bring. A hope grounded in the real world of living, friendship, work, family.”

I have spent my life judging the distance between American reality and the American dream.

If you want truth to go round the world you must hire an express train to pull it; but if you want a lie to go round the world, it will fly: it is as light as a feather, and a breath will carry it. It is well said in the old proverb, ‘a lie will go round the world while truth is pulling its boots on’.

I have priorities. Maintaining my daughter is my first.

You like a woman, she’s got kids, it’s a package. You can’t just go in one-sided.

I have a mother that’s very strong and family that surround me and constantly tell me they love me.

It’s unnatural to fight somebody who has nothing against you and never did anything to you or to your family, who never stole anything from you. And now you’ve got to go and try to dismantle this guy.

I’m passionate about everything, like my family and friends. Anybody I am talkin’ to is gonna be bona fide real. There is no substitution for happiness. Period.

When I do my shows, it’s really cross-generational. Sometimes there’s three generations there.

I think you are who you are, and your kids will see who you are. So you’d better be a good person, because they are going to see it, and that’s going to shape them. They are going to become you.

You could have all the riches in the world, but it doesn’t mean much without family.
