I don't fall into the physical manifestation of a man of letters. So I guess people assume the scripts are delivered to me under the door.

When boxers are in the ring, they're simple. It's when the fight is over, that's when the other fight, the real fight, begins. That's the problem.

The world meets nobody halfway. When you want something, you gotta take it.

If you don't have a mountain, build one and then climb it. And after you climb it, build another one; otherwise you start to flatline in your life.

I'd rather do something I love badly than to feel bad about not doing something I love.

I'm a big believer that, in life, we can't succeed in everything. Most times, we lose.

We're all expendable. We think the world's going to stop when a pope dies, or a king. And then... life goes on.
