“I think that I just need to work with great directors and actors, people who are better than me, so that I am challenged.”

My perfect weekend, anything to do with nature.

I think my mom put it best. She said, ‘Little girls soften their daddy’s hearts.

If one day speed kills me, do not cry because I was smiling.

Just real. I want to have the freedom to do whatever I want. And more importantly, I want to have the freedom to bring everyone else along with me.

I don’t go where people are. I go where the people aren’t.

If I lost weight, I’d be two-dimensional!

I have been surfing for my whole life. I love it and I don’t know that I can get much better now, I have peaked, which bothers me but I have to accept it.

Michelle Rodriguez is like the most original person on the planet. She’s so straight up, uncensored all the time. Be ready. I love her for that.

Sometimes I live in fear. But when I have to take chances about people I love, relationships, my daughter and immediate family, those decisions are easy.

My motto is, you have to get in a sport a day.

I love dogs. I grew up with dogs in my family from the time that I was a little boy; we always had German Shepherds and Labradors. I get on very well with dogs, they trust me.

My father’s a protector. My father’s old-school. He’s a cowboy.

When I was younger, the pressure was just being cool. I never thought of myself as a cool guy. I always thought of myself as more of the goofy guy.

I’d like to live on horseback and just be a cowboy.

I’m not affected by violence the way some people are. I don’t know why, but I enjoy that intensity.

I like being surrounded by great people.

Life is about accepting the challenges along the way, choosing to keep moving forward, and savoring the journey.

As a woman, it’s challenging to carve out moments for self-care, and even more so over the past year.

When we see others as separate, they become a threat. When we see others as part of us, as connected, as interdependent, then there is no challenge we cannot face—together.

Like the mountain, she rises above every challenge, every mistake, every heartbreak.

As every inquiry which regards religion is of the utmost importance, there are two questions in particular which challenge our attention, to wit, that concerning its foundation in reason, and that concerning it origin in human nature.

Change does not change tradition, it strengthens it. Change is a challenge and anopportunity, not a threat.

The challenge we’re facing in our country is about more than the actions of a few. It’s about how to transform a justice system that doesn’t work equally for all.

Overcome your fears, take life challenges, go for rides that you fear, learn new skills, show up whenever you see your fear is getting bigger than you.
