My father Big Max told me many years ago that 'anything you are good at will contribute to your happiness'. Great advice.

My sister died and my mum was really distant, as you do - you don't expect your offspring to die before you. I thought I was bulletproof up until that stage.

Fame and fortune should never get in front of your passion. The passion will generate the fame and fortune, if you're good enough.

Given how well the cards have been dealt to someone like myself, I think there's an inherent obligation to try to reach out and make a difference.

I try and open a few doors to the mind, encourage people to embrace change and to stretch their capabilities.

Were all crazy and the only difference between patients and their therapists is the therapists havent been caught yet.

Norm Smith personally came and signed me up to the Melbourne Football Club. The fact that I then played cricket for Melbourne Cricket Club - the footy club didn't like it that much.
