There's no way to describe what I do. It's just me.

There's no way to describe what I do. It's just me.

What's real? What's not? That's what I do in my act, test how other people deal with reality.

If I play my cards right, I could bring network wrestling back to TV. Unfortunately, to most people, wrestling is a laughingstock. But fortunately, I'm reaching people who otherwise wouldn't watch it.

I never told a joke in my life.

My mother sent me to psychiatrists since the age of four because she didn't think little boys should be sad. When my brother was born, I stared out the window for days. Can you imagine that?

I just want real reactions. I want people to laugh from the gut, be sad from the gut-or get angry from the gut.

When I perform, it's very personal. I'm sharing things I like, inviting the audience into my room.

While all the other kids were out playing ball and stuff, I used to stay in my room and imagine that there was a camera in the wall. And I used to really believe that I was putting on a television show and that it was going out to somewhere in the world.

There's no drama like wrestling.

I just want real reactions. I want people to laugh from the gut, be sad from the gut - or get angry from the gut.

Pure entertainment is not an egotistical lady singing boring songs onstage for two hours and people in tuxes clapping whether they like it or not. It's the real performers on the street who can hold people's attention and keep them from walking away.

President Obama has already ended Medicare as we know it.

No beast has ever conquered the earth; and the natural world has never been conquered by muscular force.

I don't know if I'm a Twitter addict. That seems kind of harsh. I would say it's more that I'm seriously involved. That it's a long-term relationship - like a girlfriend, which my actual girlfriend loves to hear.

Writing fiction has developed in me an abiding respect for the unknown in a human lifetime and a sense of where to look for the threads, how to follow, how to connect, find in the thick of the tangle what clear line persists.

I strongly support extending current student loan interest rates and increasing the college tuition tax credit for students and their families.

We got orders to strike the Marshall and Gilbert Islands. We had a task force with the Enterprise. We had two or three cruisers and probably eight or 10 destroyers.

Democracy is indispensable to socialism.

Meditation is realizing and expanding your inner beauty in every direction.

Producing is just a big learning experience.

I have great ideas, but the follow through is always really difficult for me. As my kid gets a little bit older, if I feel like I have a little bit more time on my hands, I'd like to get more into developing ideas and writing things.
