I love reading. I'm very much into history, novels, biographies and I have a wide range of thrillers.

I'm a sucker for turquoise sea, white beaches and palm trees. I've been to the tropics every year since I could afford it. It's the perfect place to unwind. I can chill out, read, do a bit of yoga.

When people feel threatened by you, they find something that is belittling.

NASCAR logic isn't always logical.

But love is different for every person. For some it's hate, for some it's joy, for some it's fear, for some it's jealousy, for some it's torture, for some it's peace. For some it's everything.

I don't see how the people who created the problem can fix it. Texas is worth fighting for, and the best way to fight is to get the politicians out of politics.

I think the best thing a parent can do, when raising a child, is simply get out of their way.

Tis easier to make certain things legal than to make them legitimate.

I try to respect everybody out here: players, caddies, fans, media.
