“There’s a difference in thinking you are a champion and knowing that you are.”

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.

You don’t look them in the eye and stop. Half the time, you’re listening, half the time, you are ignoring them.

Even as a kid, I wore J.C. Penney plain-pocket jeans because they were plain pockets.

The male is always the pawn in a romantic comedy. Come together, break up, go chase her, get her, roll credits. That’s what happens in all of them.

What the heck is true love? I remember feeling, back when I was 12 and ‘going’ with this girl, ‘Is this true love?’

I like to be able to wear something that is appropriate for wherever the day takes me: to work, on a hike and then out to dinner. I like to take the formality out of the day’s schedule and be ready for any off-road detour.

I’m a football fan, a sports fan, a fan of competition.

There are a whole bunch of roles where people say, ‘Oh, you’re playing yourself.’ I guess it’s kind of a compliment.

Absolutely not. I have no problem with commitment. In fact, I love having someone in my life.

I was raised on, ‘You go get a nine-to-five job, earn your pay and work your way up.’

Sure, I can get a little bit jealous. The good part about jealousy is that it comes from passion. It’s also the dangerous part and it’s an ugly emotion that hurts.

I talk to myself all the time. Just make sure you answer.

My wife and I don’t compete. We know each other’s preferences, and we work to provide those for each other. One will take over when the other is faced with something he or she dislikes. That’s what friends do.

How old would you be if you didn’t know how old you are?

Either you’re a person who will be stopped, or you are a person who won’t be stopped. You choose.

The Blood deals with what we have done, whereas the Cross deals with what we are. The Blood disposes of our sins, while the Cross strikes at the root of our capacity for sin.

We are not separated from spirit, we are in it.

Plants and minerals are bound to predestination. The faithful is only bound to the Divine orders.

When you’re young, you’re stupid. You do silly things.

To cultivate an English accent is already a departure away from what you are.

People don’t become better when they’re dead; you just talk about them as if they are.
