If happiness is what you’re after, then you are going to be let down frequently and be unhappy much of your time. Joy, though, is something else. It’s not a choice, not a response to some result, it is a constant. Joy is “the feeling we have from doing what we are fashioned to do,” no matter the outcome.

Life is not fair, it never was and it is now and it won't ever be. Do not fall into the trap. The entitlement trap, of feeling like you're a victim. You are not.

I say to the paparazzi, 'Fellas, take your shot and go.' It's just they usually find me on a beach.

I am vain. I think vanity is a good thing. It's done more good things for me than it has not.

I like quips. I like whiffs of cynicism and I think they can be witty. But I don't really know where wittiness is constructive.

It's nice when they notice the deep voice from across the house, and they know it's papa. They know it's Dad.

I like the 'Alive' part. Now I've made it. Wait until you see the roles I could take after this. You're going to see my gut hanging over, plus 22lbs. It'll be a whole new kind of sexy!
