Every book is vulnerable, and every book is nerve-wracking, but I've never been both so excited and terrified to have a book coming into the world. It's an expressly loaded subject, one on which you can't win.

I'm just very interested, fascinated, heartbroken, obsessed with the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and our need to find peace on that front... Everyone's always, like, victim and avenger at the same time.

I feel very lucky that I have this career that allows me to say, 'I'm ready to start now on this project,' and I can go and do it.

I'd say that in place of a singular phobic-level terror, I keep a whole collection of running, yet manageable, fears.

For me, living a balanced life means nurturing the academic, physical, and spiritual aspects of my life so I can maintain a sense of well-being and self-esteem.

I've never made football my priority. My priorities are my faith and my dependence on God.

Whether I'm being influenced by new music that I'm listening to, books I've read, my friends, or my faith, I'm learning all the time.

God's justice, tardy though it prove perchance, Rests never on the track until it reach Delinquency.
