I skate to anything with a good beat, anything that can get me motivated.

Don't ever give up. You gotta keep trying, and never give up.

Hopefully, kids realize you can do anything you want. Skateboarding can be that gateway.

I'm living with every step. I can't live with regret. The past is the past. I'm not worried about it. I can't change it. I can't fix it. It is what it is. I'm just living.

The world is just waiting to be skated.

Whatever sport you choose, do it because you love it, and don't expect to be an expert first thing. It takes time to do well at anything, but if you love it, you'll stick with it.

I am always hurt, but what are you going to do? I have to skate.

I like skateboarding. I'm here on this planet to skateboard; I feel this is what God wants me to do. I just live it. I get hurt all the time. I break bones. It's just all part of the process.

I live to ride, and ride to live.

No one can tell me what to do on my skateboard. My skateboard is my safe spot. I can learn tricks, I can have fun, I can do whatever I want on my skateboard.

Every time somebody calls me out or tries to start something, it's motivation.

I prefer to work for my country in a free and independent way. I was born free, and I want to die free. I am always suspicious of ideology. Instead, I respect men with ideas.

I found there was only one way to look thin: hang out with fat people.

Pride is the parent of destruction; pride eats the mind and the heart and the soul alive.

He who befriends a man whose conduct is vicious, whose vision impure, and who is notoriously crooked, is rapidly ruined.

A wise man seeks by music to strengthen his soul: the thoughtless one uses it to stifle his fears.

I am my own worst enemy. This, more than any other trait, proves my fundamental humanity.

I forgot how much I loved going to class, actually. But I also forgot what having school homework feels like: stressful!

To find your angels... Start trusting your inner voice and intuition

I always run the stories by Capcom. They read the scripts and give their comments. I would never want to kill a character that they really want to use in the next game.

Don't change the man. Change his environment.
