Three to four times a week, I get up at 7:30 A.M. while the courts are empty at Venice Beach and play full court one-on-one.

In general, I try to eat food without added hormones and pesticides, but I'm not so strict that I won't have a Big Mac once in a while.

I wanted to go on the red carpet with a baseball cap, t-shirt, and jeans. And I still do. Because that's really who I am.

The people that matter to me the most are the people that are in my life. That's who I really learn from, and it's always a very personal kind of connection.

A university is just a group of buildings gathered around a library.

Don't you get it? It's the end of the world! That's exactly when you fall in love. When else?

I live in London and I love living in a gun free environment and long may it continue.

Airport screeners are now scanning holiday fruitcakes. Not even the scanners can tell what those little red things are.

Never be afraid of failure or disappointment, because those are just temporary experiences on the path to your dreams coming true

The wisest man preaches no doctrines; he has no scheme; he sees no rafter, not even a cobweb, against the heavens. It is clear sky.

Sometimes even a smart crowd will make a mistake.

It is better to be unsuccessful pursuing a significant goal that being successful attaining an insignificant one.

Our sexual energy, when not properly mastered, is transformed into anger.

[That form of] eloquence, the foster-child of licence, which fools call liberty. [Lat., Eloquentia, alumna licentiae, quam stulti libertatem vocabant.]
