“I don’t know what the hell I’m doing; I like what I’ve been doing. I believe in what I’ve done in the past; I hope my kid enjoys the movies I’ve made and enjoys some of the movies in the future.”

I can’t run a company… I can’t even run my own life!

Sixth grade was a big time, in my childhood, of hoops and friendship, and coming up with funny things.

I never had a speech from my father ‘this is what you must do or shouldn’t do’ but I just learned to be led by example. My father wasn’t perfect.

I think I’m playing grown up because I have kids now. But I don’t feel grown up yet.

My kids don’t have a trust fund, they have a debt fund. And when I die, they’re $4 million in the hole.

I don’t know what drives me to succeed. I know I want to always do the best I can.I guess I was maybe in little league baseball as far as I wanted to be good at that. But school, I certainly wasn’t the best at that.

Mama says that, happiness is from magic rays of sunshine that come down when you’re feeling blue.

I’ve always wanted to do a family movie.

I say things, like every other parent, that reminds you of your own parents. One thing I do know about being a parent, you understand why your father was in a bad mood a lot.

My buddies, we’ve always just tried to make each other laugh. I mean, just like all friends hanging out – that’s the goal.

When I do stand-up shows at colleges, girls will talk to me after the show, and that always feels good. I like talking to them.

Comedy, such a lovely lady, she’ll pick you up, you your feeling blue.

So let me do the dishes in our kitchen sink, put you to bed when you’ve had too much to drink. Oh, it could be so nice to grow old with you, I wanna grow old with you.

I still get very scared when I step in front of a live audience.

I think the reason I don’t read is because, when I’m reading, I feel like I’m missing out on something else. You know, What are my friends doing? Where’s my girlfriend?

I know I want to always do the best I can.

I struggle for what I believe in. Life is short, it’s impossible to repeat something; you have to take advantage of things when you can reach them.

We must believe in luck. For how else can we explain the success of those we don’t like?

We believe in individual initiative, personal responsibility, opportunity, freedom, small government, the Constitution. These principles, these American principles are key to getting our economy back to being successful and leading the world.

Bill [Gates] and I believe philanthropy can only be effective if it starts things and proves whether they actually work or not. That’s the place that governments often don’t want to, or can’t, work.

I firmly believe you’re never supposed to wish for more than you’re willing to work for. Expectations should never exceed your effort.

Believe me, it is actions that count.

I have no regrets. If you regret things, you’re sort of stepping backwards. I’m a believer in going forwards.

Ninety-nine percent of people believe they can’t do great things, so they aim for mediocrity.
