Tiramisu is my favourite.

In life you don't regret the things you do, you regret the things you don't do.

For Sunday breakfast, I make orange and ricotta pancakes, crepes and eggs. You know men, we usually go for breakfast because it's the easiest thing to cook and then we try to make it seem fancy.

If you accept the pain, it cannot hurt you.

I've never heard my dad say a bad word about anybody. He always keeps his emotions in check and is a true gentleman. I was taught that losing it was indulgent, a selfish act.

Salvatore Ferragamo have done some nice handmade suits for me.

Breakfast is my specialty. I admit it's the easiest meal to cook, but I make everything with a twist, like lemon ricotta pancakes or bacon that's baked instead of fried.

We are powerful beyond imagination.

Americans want to go to heaven without dying.

There is some schedule showing what you (need) to do to get Iraqis standing up and defending themselves which is now suddenly beginning to happen, so there are some signs of progress.

The distortion of the truth bothers me.

I'm dying and I'm having fun. And I'm going to keep having fun every day I have left.

Trying to say something is all you got in life.
