Life's too short not to laugh about yourself and the cards you're dealt.

I feel pain everywhere. A lot of guys in chairs do feel their legs. But if you don't, there's a thing called disreflex, so you know if something happens, say, you can't feel your foot or your leg and your body reacts. You know something's not right and you survey what's going on.

I'm not scared of getting hurt. I'm not scared of, pretty much, anything. If you live your life scared, what's the fun in living it? If you were scared of getting hit by a car, would you still cross the street?

People aren't familiar with wheelchair sports. The only film crew in Athens for the Paralympics was the documentary crew.

With all the traveling and promotion I've been doing for 'Murderball,' its been difficult keeping up with my rugby training.

For those of you who worry that I am a skinhead and anything that goes along with that, I am not.

Breaking my neck was the best thing that ever happened to me. I have an Olympic medal. I've been to so many countries I would never have been, met so many people I would never have met. I've done more in the chair, ... than a whole hell of a lot of people who aren't in chairs.
