I happen to be a Parkinson's patient. I'm not fearful of my condition or my future - but if someone is looking in my eyes for fear, then they see their own fear reflected back at them.

After a year or so I really thought I was Howard Hughes. Here I was at eighteen years old, getting all these checks.

Pity is a benign form of abuse.

Optimism is a cure for many things.

I like to encourage people to realize that any action is a good action if it's proactive and there is positive intent behind it.

I truly believe that we have infinite levels of power that we don't even know are available to us.

In terms of what happened over that hiatus that I took, I just rested. I spent that time with my family, during their really formative years, and enjoyed that, and I messed with pills and new medications that help me to deal with dyskinesia and some other things I was struggling with, that I don't have as much now because of medication to counter the side effects. So, it just seemed like the right time to do it.
