You know what's cool? My kids think I'm ordinary.

A creative mess is better than idle tidiness.

Certainly people have a lot tougher situations than I've had to deal with. But I will say we are all dying from the moment we are born. This is not just rehearsal.

I have no choice about whether or not I have Parkinson's. I have nothing but choices about how I react to it. In those choices, there's freedom to do a lot of things in areas that I wouldn't have otherwise found myself in.

I can get sad, I can get frustrated, I can get scared, but I never get depressed - because there's joy in my life.

I definitely believe in a higher power.

My happiness grows in direct proportion to my acceptance, and in inverse proportion to my expectations.
