I've really sensed that people have an affection for me. ”

I've always had a love for horses since I was really young. When I was 5 years old, the only thing that made me happy was when they'd take me out and give me pony rides. ”

I've had a passion for horses since I was very young - I used to sit on the floor in front of the races on television and pretend to be a jockey - and I first began reading the racing form on the set of 'The Partridge Family.' ”

I've always had a special relationship with the U.K. fans, because even when I wasn't working they were very supportive. ”

I want to love. I want to enjoy life. ”

I saw Jimi Hendrix - it must have been four times. And he was incomparable, and his legend lives on. ”

Until I really dealt with a lot of the demons in my life - the fear and self-doubt and unresolved issues with my old man - I could never feel fulfilled and happy. I would wake up in the morning and feel bad. ”

I've had a great metamorphosis in my life. I struggled for a number of years because I was identified with that image of the Seventies. ”

As a father, I do everything my dad didn't do. My son Beau's birth changed my life. ”

My life has flourished in so many ways both personally and professionally that I can't ask for a better life. ”
