I wouldn't sacrifice my business for no acting career because my business is something, ultimately, that I know I'm going to pass down to my kids, and that's most important to me than anything else in the world. I can't pass an acting career down to my children.

I love California. I love Hollywood.

Everything that I do in my life is geared towards my kids and their survival and giving them the best education that I can possibly give them and the best home that I can possibly give them.

Living on the Gulf Coast, we often have to go through dangerous situations, whether you're a child, an adult or a senior citizen.

Joy comes, grief goes, we know not how.

I would rather die a meaningful death than to live a meaningless life.

I don't know if I believe in life after death so much as I believe that there is something out there.

What's upsetting about an autobiography is that the final chapter is always missing. I mean, you want the death, don't you?
