To be in love with someone and be raising a family with someone and want to make that commitment and not be able to is ludicrous, just ludicrous.

A family is a risky venture, because the greater the love, the greater the loss... That's the trade-off. But I'll take it all.

I'm sure they're saddened by me, and I get frustrated with them. But I love them, and at the end of the day if they need me or if they need anything, I'm there for them. Family.

I'd like to design something like a city or a museum. I want to do something hands on rather than just play golf which is the sport of the religious right.

When I was a boy, I would ask about my family history, about my bloodlines. We really didn't know that much. We had a little Indian in us from the Oklahoma Trail of Tears.

In Missouri, where I come from, we don't talk about what we do - we just do it. If we talk about it, it's seen as bragging.
