My kids are now the most popular kids in their school.

Believe half of what you see and only some of what you hear, unless you hear it from me.

My kids are now the most popular kids in their school.

If I win, I'll take my wife and buy her a whole new wardrobe. If she's happy then I'll be happy.

Maybe some people thought I was 'safe' so they didn't really bothered to vote for me at all.

As a kid, I was heavily into martial arts and wanted to be the next Jean-Claude Van Damme.

Ed Kowalczyk is my favorite singer.

I do belong on stage.

I get to hang out with Billy Bob Thornton at his house. We hang out over there every time we're in L.A., because he doesn't go out. We'll hang and he'll play us some of his tunes. It's pretty awesome.

I just like music. If it's hookey and good, I dig it.

I wanted to be a martial arts film star when I was a teenager.

I was always in bands before, but on 'American Idol,' it was about getting my voice out there. It was always my goal, though, to get a band together again.

I will continue to pursue my music and live my life with my family.

I'd like to be a piano player.

I'm living my dream now.

I'm looking to see what the bigger picture is.

I'm not ashamed of selling millions of records. I'm very fortunate to be in that position.

If people say something rude or off-color, you have to take it with a grain of salt, because they don't know you.

In the '90s, guitar solos were dead.

It doesn't matter how good you are as a band or how good your music may be; if the fans aren't supporting it and buying your music, it's hard to make it.

Some goals you just never really think about trying to achieve because they just seem so out of reach.

The hits always wind up being the songs with big, high choruses. They're the ones too high to sing every night - not that you'll ever, ever hear me complain about having to try.

There's going to be a flood of opportunities right now but I don't think I could really talk about them.

What I do doesn't sit well in the world of hipsterville. I don't have a cool card, but I also don't have thin skin.

When I got into music, I wanted to learn guitar just enough to be able to write songs. I wanted to be able to express myself.

You have to think there's a reason for everything. When a door closes another door opens.

You marry somebody; you love everything about them. You grow to learn about them. You never learn everything.

Working mothers do an hour more per day than working fathers do and working mothers do on average an hour more per day with the kids than working fathers do.

I didn't do the typical things that young kids do.

My kids enjoy the Disney program, Lizzy McGuire.

I want to spend more time with those kids. I want to dedicate my time to train those kids and teach them what it takes, what they need to do to get to this level.

I think having eight kids evens things out a bit. You learn about the world; you learn about the world; you learn you've got to get along. We're all - if anything - very adjustable.

We're parents first, and once you have kids, everybody knows that you have priority lists. Number one is your family and everything else just kind of finds its place.

I want to promote poetry to the point where you got all the baldhead kids running around doing poetry, getting the music out of the way and having only words, the spoken word, and then see what happens.

If kids like a picture book, they're going to read it at least 50 times. Read anything that often, and even minor imperfections start to feel like gravel in the bed.

Sounds so silly, but I want to accomplish getting my kids through college.

And there's a lot of that stuff with people bringing their kids, kids bringing their parents, people bringing their grandparents - I mean, it's gotten to be really stretched out now. It was never my intention to say, this is the demographics of our audience.

It's up to each person's parents whether they think it's too frightening or too violent, how much their kids can handle, what they want to teach them, what they want to show them.

For kids it's natural to be competitive.

I'd hope to reach any kid who feels apart from the group - those who seem to be outsiders, who feel different. Kids who want to reach their parents often don't know how to do so.

So, not only am I panicking over the weekend if I need to know my lines, but also if can I get the kids to the zoo. Can I even go to church? I was asking for certain things that would allow me to plan my life a little better.

The real question isn't whether you love your kids or not, but how well you are able to demonstrate your love and caring so that your children really feel loved.

Young kids are taking Viagra, ecstasy. They even want instant sex.

I think women are natural caretakers. They take care of everybody. They take care of their husbands and their kids and their dogs, and don't spend a lot of time just getting back and taking time out.

The Professional Children's School, it's for professional kids, so if you wanted to ditch, you could just write, Audition on a note and leave. I didn't really like school all that much.

I mean, obviously, a lot of people know me around the world. Kids know me.

My kids act all the time and it's exactly what I used to do.

I'm doing naughty things, I'm drinking too much, I'm going to clubs. It really didn't matter to me, other than the fact that some parents wouldn't let their kids hang out with me.

Kids shouldn't see all the violence they do these days. But the industry just doesn't care.
