I was a bit of a wild boy - always swimming and exploring the mountains.

I don't do divas. I don't do entourages. I don't do the Hollywood crap.

I do like to fly under the radar. When I walk around town, the only people I want to recognise me and call me by my name are the folks at Starbucks.

If every drug in the world were abolished a physician would still be a useful member of society.

Your body is not who you are. The mind and spirit transcend the body.

When I put magic into a book - whether it's a wizard or a crusty old werewolf - I'm asking a reader to swallow a huge leap that is counter to everything he or she knows. An extra big helping of reality makes that leap go down a lot easier.

If there's a best, I want to fight them.

The reason why books endure is because there are enough people who like them. It's the only reason why books last.

The reasons that major champions are the best in the game is because they're able to keep golf at its most simple. It really boils down to making good shots and good putts when you need to, regardless of what the golf course looks like.

When U.S.-based editors and columnists parachute into a news storm, it is often the stringers who keep us out of trouble, helping us glimpse the complexity behind the headlines.

We spend millions of dollars every year just for the right to pay our taxes, but once again, do we really need to do that? Why don't we simplify it? And I've certainly looked at fair tax, I've looked at flat tax, and if I get to the U.S. Senate, I'd like to review that.

Nothing great will ever be achieved without great men, and men are great only if they are determined to be so.

Do more than just exist; create to inspire!

When life partner happens, I hope he is not a youth icon then because I doubt even I would be youthful then. Whether life partner is hot or not, that doesn't matter. He has to be a nice man. He should be funny, responsible, and he should be sweet, and he should love me a lot.
