Some of the words and symbols and images from childhood will continually be part and parcel of my personality.

The trouble with words is that you never know whose mouths they have been in.

A bad act done will fester and create in its own way. It's not only goodness that creates. Bad things create. They have their own yeast.

I'm a huge Dallas Mavs fan. What I love about Dirk Nowitzki is he has just as much talent as everyone else, if not more, and he never toots his own horn. He's this silent warrior.

When I see something that I think isn't right, I think I have some kind of, for right or wrong, an obligation to fix it.
