I began learning the sportswriting business very early in life..

We can escape from everything, but not from ourselves..

Don't be afraid to have nothing..

I am not a ventriloquist..

Only describe, don't explain..

Actors are always going to have a little bit of themselves in everything..

By things so achingly small are lives measured and marred..

Where you stop is where you stop. There is always more of God..

I am actually nondenominational..

I have always been a good mimic..

Your anger is a gift..

I like the TV format. I like how fast it is..

1999 was your last recorded output, and then Porter Ricks was put on hold until 2012..

You instinctively like what you can't do..

There's a lot of freedom for me living in L.A..

What you get is no longer what you see..

For we put the thought of all that we love into all that we make..
