“When I see grace in a woman, that’s very sexy. You can tell by how someone moves or their rhythm.”

There are no rules. And if it comes down to me versus that weed I’m trying to pull out of the ground that doesn’t want to come out? I know I’ll win.

I’ve read a lot of really great characters in some really crappy stories, where I said, like, ‘Boy I could shine here, but the story sucks.’ I don’t want to be part of that.

I have some good friends of my own who happen to be gay, and when it comes to gay, straight, or whatever, I’m for anything life-affirmative.

There’s two sorts of fear: one you embrace and one you should listen to and turn the other way.

There aren’t many things that are universally cool, and it’s cool not to litter. I’d never do it.

Vrtually having relationships, virtually traveling across the neighborhood, virtually going to that island.

I like having my hands in the clay. I like the movie-making process.

You hope it translates to a common denominator with the people that they see something in their own life in there. Or they see something in somebody else’s life. That’s what’s fun about sharing art.

I try to stay there long enough to do it justice, long enough so that I can at least imagine what it would be like to live there. Once I imagine that, then it’s OK for me to return home.

Whether I’m running on the beach without my shirt or whether I’m going out with my kids or going to church or going out to dinner.

Water’s never clumsy.

We dissect failure a lot more than we dissect success.

The unsaid rule for living in a trailer park is: ‘If the door’s shut, don’t come a-knockin.’ But if it’s open and you’re walkin’ by, feel free to say, ‘Hello.’

I’ve got incredible support from my wife and family and people around me. I’ve got great people around me who handle anything on the outside, business-wise, who help free me up to create in my job.

Music is a really great creative tool for me, for different roles.

A coach, especially at a college level – much more at a college or high school level, than at a pro level – you’re more of a teacher than an actual coach.

The will of God will not take us where the grace of God cannot sustain us.

The real champions in life are so humble and gracious. They just continue doing what they do without all the posturing. If you’ve got the real thing, you don’t have to flaunt a loud imitation.

Grant me the grace to dissolve my negative thoughts about myself today. I breathe the grace of kindness into my heart. And may the grace of healing flow abundantly to every one in need of help.

Hope is in the name of God, the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Hope is when you compare your suffering to the infinite, immeasurable love and grace of God.

I look on the opposite sex with something like the admiration with which I regard the starry sky on a frosty December night. I admire the beauty of the Creator’s workmanship, I am charmed with the wild but graceful eccentricity of the motions, and then I wish both of them goodnight.

A quiet heart is content with what God gives. It is enough. All is grace.

Exit gracefully. Heal and grow. Don’t look back.

Few souls understand what God would effect in them if they should give themselves entirely into his hands and allow his grace to act.
