I was in prison for a charge in Texas, murder one. Back in the '70s in Texas, I was there. I heard the shot. I was in the car.

Where mercy is shown, mercy is given.

You can't be afraid to put out a fire if you're a fireman. You can't be afraid to be a police officer and carry a gun if you're afraid to get up and go out there. So you've got to put that fear to the side and go out in faith to overcome that.

Faith is the substance of hope - of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen. So if you can hope for it and imagine it, and keep imagining and hoping and seeing yourself driving a new car, or seeing yourself getting that job, or seeing yourself excel, seeing yourself help that person - that is faith.

You know God gives me that inner strength that super strength to get through things.

I've always taken pride to be the white guy that can talk to the black people, that can refer to them truly as a brother from a different mother.

I'm Native American, so it's in my blood to always want brothers and friends. I'm a good brotherhood guy.
