I'm not affected by violence the way some people are. I don't know why, but I enjoy that intensity.

I have been surfing for my whole life. I love it and I don't know that I can get much better now, I have peaked, which bothers me but I have to accept it.

I believe in fate, that films happen when they are supposed to.

I could take you for a walk on the beach and I could point out just about any creature and give you their Latin names.

You know, all that really matters is that the people you love are happy and healthy. Everything else is just sprinkles on the sundae.

Surfing soothes me, it's always been a kind of Zen experience for me. The ocean is so magnificent, peaceful, and awesome. The rest of the world disappears for me when I'm on a wave.

I'm into being a dad, that's where my focus is most of the time. I'm an actor that's my job, but it's not my life. I have a lot of other interests too.
