I do not have to build a perfect wall today. I just have to lay a perfect brick.

I'm a student of world religion, so to me, it's hugely important to have knowledge and to understand what people are doing.

The big thing I tell my kids is you have to control how you label things. It's very important to me they understand the power they have to create the lives that they want.

The road to success is through commitment.

I think that my sensibilities are becoming slightly less delicate and I'm venturing out in a storytelling world.

I try to connect to human emotion. I'm always looking for something primal, something really base that is beyond language, that people understand beyond language.

The things that have been most valuable to me I did not learn in school. Traditional education is based on facts and figures and passing tests - not on a comprehension of the material and its application to your life.
