You got to get used to somebody, when you're acting or going through a scene, somebody yelling, "Do it a little louder!" OK, you do it a little louder.

You always want your kids to step up at the moment of truth.

I think when somebody goes to the movies and they spend their money and they take the girl out, the family, they want to have a good time. You don't always want to be hit over the head with history or how bad society is.

I feel like I got a whole lot of living to do before I think about summing it up in a book.

You want the industry to finally admit that you're good. But I'm still good without their admission.

Anything that got to do with a pig, I ain't eatin'.

Music is where I have the most creative freedom, but I love producing. To me, that's kind of where all the action is. You get a chance to have your hands in every aspect of a film. From picking a director, sometimes picking a writer, to the actors, the wardrobe, set design, editing, music, and marketing.
