I experienced different things growing up as a child that helped me. That helped mold me into the man that I am now, to the athlete that I am now.

I always was a guy that wanted to be liked. That wanted to be like everyone else, not really understanding that the platform that I had was different than others. Not really understanding that God expects more from his leaders that he does from people who are not really committed to Him.

Sometimes, you get kind of redundant by learning the same offense over and over again.

I know I have a past.

The opportunity here in the U.S. is so unique because we are so diverse, with so many different cultures living together. Christians, Jews, Hindus, Muslims and Buddhists, all with their own connections to the spiritual aspects of food and with lessons that we can learn from each other.

While the soul is in mortal sin, nothing can profit it; none of its good works merit an eternal reward, since they do not proceed from God as their first principle, and by Him alone is our virtue real virtue.

I’m such a spiritual man. I think that displayed in the music throughout the course of my career.

The theatre is a spiritual and social X-ray of its time.
