There are six components of wellness: proper weight and diet, proper exercise, breaking the smoking habit, control of alcohol, stress management and periodic exams.

Exercise can't counteract the damage being done to your body while you continue to smoke. What exercise can do is help you kick the habit.

I don't criticize weight training - as long as it is not a substitute for aerobic training.

The reason I exercise is for the quality of life I enjoy.

I have not missed a day from work because of illness since 1956.

Exercise is a journey, not a destination. It must be continued for the rest of your life. We do not stop exercising because we grow old - we grow old because we stop exercising.

November’s a burn and an ache.

A foundation is a large amount of money completely surrounded by people who want some.

Well, I've maybe gotten 200 requests for interviews about Marilyn, and I just decided I'm gonna do my own.

To me, the musical is best when it's a musical comedy. So if you have a very, very funny show, and very good, funny songs, that's what the musical does best.

The only way I get back to my center is either by talking to my wife or by spending time by myself.

I'm pretty darn happy with my day job.
