Better than I was, more than I am. And all of this happened by taking your hand.

One of the most memorable live performances of my career took place on the 2002 American Music Awards show when I had to the opportunity to sing with Elton John. I was moved by the way he played the piano onstage.

I don't even trust myself in my career much less giving somebody else advice.

I coach my daughter's softball and basketball team. We go to all the school functions. We go out to eat at night and take the kids to the movies. We try to be as normal as we can.

Carry on, carry on, what don't kill us makes us strong.

When I die and I'm lucky enough or fortunate enough and brave enough throughout my life to get into Heaven and I see Octavia Spencer sitting there then all is good.

I love my wife more than anything in the world, but boy when she had our babies, it quadrupled. There's just something about the connection.
