You heard it from the heart, you saw it in their eyes. Then I got used to the fact that I couldn't feel my fingers and my feet. That for me was the essence of the battle.

Face it, I didn't become famous until I took my clothes off.

I'm pretty certain that if there is a will there is a way.

Success, and even life itself, wouldn't be worth anything if I didn't have my wife and children by my side. They mean everything to me.

I was an optimist, a great champion of the human spirit. And I lost that for a time. I feel like I've regained a bit of that in the last few years but there was a period of my life in which I had a very low opinion of people in general.

Making an effort is polite, and getting ready and looking after yourself makes an event more fun.

I need someone to give me a part where I play the piano so I can learn it. I would love that.
