Talking about money is garish. It's tacky.

I've got two vices: cigarettes and taters.

There was one thing my daddy wouldn't tolerate in any shape, form or fashion, and that was being unkind or rude to somebody. That was just very important to my folks. And as it turns out, that was a legacy that he left me that money can't buy, is how to be able to treat people.

I found that when I went from Albany to Savannah, that I needed to put that white rice away, and I needed to turn that into Savannah red rice because they were big into that sausage, tomato-y, bell pepper-y rice mixture.

Love is blind, but marriage is a real eye-opener.

I don't care what the haters and naysayers say. If they make jokes about me, I'll laugh because they'll probably be funny.
