Just me onstage with a mike having an intimate relationship with the audience. I don't get nervous for that. I just get excited.
I never played a musical instrument growing up but I knew kids who did and took it very seriously.
I took a public speaking class in college and managed to make the class laugh a little bit.
I've always been the guy who doesn't necessarily get it with women. A woman would have to say, 'I like you, I want to go out with you, you can ask me.' And still I would question it. Did she mean it?
I try to connect with the everyday, every guy.
Back in '93 I saw my first UFC fight and just became enamored by it then.
Every few months I'll pop into a comedy club or go to Vegas.
Teachers have a chance to mold someone, inspire them. I hope all teachers realize that.
As American as an apple is and as American as baseball is, they don't go together. You can't be chewing an apple at a baseball game. You've got to let go of the diet that day.
When you're big you don't need a reason to sweat. You don't, right? My friends cannot grab a hold of this concept. They come up to me all the time like Jeez! What have you been doing? What are ya jumpin rope in the attic?! Well, I peeled an orange.. about an hour ago. Why, what's up?
I really wasn't a class clown.
I would always love to be an athlete, but it's got to be a tough day when you have to hang up those cleats.
I'm not a Hollywood guy.
You don't want to do anything that doesn't glorify God in every way.
