A true champion is not only formed in victory. To be defeated makes you learn.

I'm a natural born sniper.

Defeat is only a defeat when we don't learn anything.

You can't change your attitude because you're the champion. I've always kept my feet on the ground and never wanted to change.

It is a miserable thing to live in suspense

I had my young eyes opened by the impersonal blood and guts of news photography. I was running the gamut every low man on the totem pole runs - country clubs to mass murder.

For me, words are just words, nothing else

I have always compared our traditions of liberty, like those of Abraham Lincoln and Ho Chi Minh.

It is strange to reflect how much energy is thrown away in attempting to know the unknowable.

I've always idolized Amy Poehler, because I think she's the best of the best as far as female comedy.

I never wrote poetry, just prose. I don't really consider songwriting a form of poetry either. The words are important, of course, but they're dependent on the music.

In science, nothing is ever 100% proven.

But, oh, Thou bounteous Giver of all good, Thou art, of all Thy gifts, Thyself thy crown!
