[on Emilio Estevez] Truly, My First Love.

In The End The Only Thing That You Can Have On Your Side Is Time. The Only Way To Gain Time Is By Living It. And If I Live Expending My Energy Worrying About Other People's Perceptions, Then I'm Missing My Moment.

The Scalpel Won't Make You Happy.

I Just Don't Like The Idea Of Having An Operation To Hold Up The Ageing Process.

I’m Honored If I Can Inspire Somebody Else.

Success Has To Be An Inside Job. Happiness Does Not Come From External Material Things. Even People Don't Make Us Ultimately Happy. It's How We Choose To Deal With Those Things That Happen In Our Lives That Matters.
