Boxing never hurt me at all.

In the wake of 9/11, my wife Trish and I were stranded on the East Coast. We had planned a vacation to Greece, but flights had been halted. Instead, we ended up on a tiny island off the coast of...

I want to live a normal life that I never had the opportunity to do for many years.

I used to get these as a kid all the time - Doritos, Cheetos, Funions... and Andy Capp's Hot Fries. I have a crunch fetish.

I was really into 'Cocktail' when I was younger - probably the most - followed by 'Top Gun.'

It doesn't matter who my father was; it matters who I remember he was.

I have absolutely no concept of work, except for university. But I like to talk to people a lot about their jobs.

I honestly don't think I sought fame. It wasn't something I courted or wanted, particularly.

For example, I noticed that every single kid in the high school in 'The Death-Ray' is based on somebody I went to high school with.

The hiatus you spoke about happened in 1998. I was somewhat numb from being out on the road every night. I had to stop because I was emotionally and physically drained.

I've missed out on a lot of things, going out with friends.

I don't have a phone.

Ever since I was younger, I was fascinated by cars and driving. The first time I actually drove a car, I was twelve years old.

I still have not given up the idea of becoming a journalist, but at 17 I decided to follow my heart and stay in Los Angeles with my girlfriend as opposed to going to Johns Hopkins.

I married an American. He was from the Pacific Northwest but went to law school in the South, so I was living in Virginia and North Carolina.

I think I would like the sort of job where you can work away in obscurity to try and improve things, without being caught up in the political maelstrom.

It is good to make my comeback in Jamaica after not playing for so long.

Honestly, Flav is not much of a video game player these days. BUT, I used to spend hours on Time Crisis. I beat all levels, man.

My mom was a diabetic. Her sister was a diabetic, so I was already a candidate.

My kind of wanting to be funny didn't come from need, necessarily. The closest I can analyze it is that it was an easy way to make friends, I found out. It was just a great kind of social tool.

I'm incredibly fortunate to have met the intelligent, generous, risk-taking, stimulating man to whom I am married. He's really amazing.

I'd always need a creative outlet. But sometimes, I do fantasize what my life would be like if I weren't famous.

In parenting, as in judging, the days are long, but the years are short.

Talking about food is like talking about your dreams. Everyone has something to say. We all have to eat, it's just what we eat which differs. Some people eat for fuel and I feel bad for them.

In his library he had been always sure of leisure and tranquility; and though prepared, as he told Elizabeth, to meet with folly and conceit in every other room in the house, he was used to be free...

I wasn't particularly worried; running is overrated anyway, and sport only makes you sweaty and smug and wears out the knees.

I had tried marijuana several times, but in the words of my friend and longtime assistant Janet Stark, When I smoke pot, it makes me want to hide under the bed with a box of graham crackers and not...

I want to be the star in your diary - Shawn, Fade to White

I thought about the cameras following me in the terminal and pictured my family watching my entrance on TV. I hoped they'd be proud.

Sometimes poets expect me to think far deeper than I'm willing to dig.
