People were going to geometry class and I was swimming through vats of chili on 'Even Stevens.' It was like a dream!

My mom is the backbone not just of my family but of many families.

I grew up around a lot of aggressive guys. My parents used to take me to AA meetings when I was very young. So I know aggression, I know insanity.

I've learned to be more reserved, watch what I'm saying; I got in a little bit of trouble. People tell me 'Never lose that, never lose that,' but then I get in trouble so I have to lose it. I'm trying to keep a little bit; I'm never going to lose who I am, I just gotta tone it down a little bit.

I think there's a form of honesty, because I used to be very honest with the press, and then it backfired on me, and I understood it.

My generation will actually be the first generation that is tamer than the one that came before it, and it will probably be poorer; less fun and less money.

I became a Christian man in a very real way. I could have just said the prayers that were on the page, but it was a real thing that really saved me. And you can't identify unless you're really going through it. It's a full-blown exchange of heart, a surrender of control.
