You're never going to catch me calling myself a hero unless I'm joking.

I used to fear public speaking. My voice would shake, I used to forget to breathe. Now it's pretty easy for me.

I hope I can use everything that's being offered to me to do good in other people's lives.

The difference in being a good soldier and actor is that in the Air Force, you see results, and our worth is defined by numbers. As an actor, your results are based on other people's opinions.

I live my life day by day.

Obviously I'll still be involved in organizations like the USO and Wounded Warriors, which will always be a big part of my life. But I like to motivate people, and I like working with children. I could go anywhere and do anything.

I never thought I'd ever get stabbed in my life. The fact that it happened twice within, like, a two-month period is pretty insane.

I survived a terrorist attack and got stabbed another four times, literally stabbed in the heart, and somehow, I'm going to be 100 percent OK.
