I'm inspired by many of my friends, colleagues, and the extraordinary people I've been fortunate enough to meet along the way.

I feel alive in quiet moments with my son, riding our bikes or watching him line his trains up in a particular order, witnessing how his mind works, hearing him learn a new word. I'm alive in these special moments because I never knew a love like this.

I feel the presence of a higher power. I believe that what you give is what you get. It's universal law. I believe in the power of prayer and of words. I've learned that when you predict that negative things will happen, they do.

You don't know what will happen from one minute to the next.

I've always been strong-minded, but I wonder.

I believe if you can find something to give back to, your soul will feel fulfilled in a very powerful way.

When I'm on stage, my interaction with the audience is something that really makes me come alive. It's a feeling like no other. The energy of the crowd fuels something new inside. It reminds me to live in the moment.
