My experiences in life are getting bigger and better. The more stuff I do, the more stuff I talk about – having kids, traveling, going through relationship problems, dealing with things in my own family. All that stuff builds character.

If you would be loved, love, and be loveable.

The spirit is there in every boy; it has to be discovered and brought to light.

Remember that a gesture of friendship, no matter how small, is always appreciated.

Nothing is as obnoxious as other people’s luck.

When I grow up, I want to be like Balvin.

I stayed in a really old hotel last night. They sent me a wake-up letter.

I want to be just a pure spiritual leader.

I think about the milestones from my childhood and what it will be like to watch our kids go through them. Taking Riley to her first day of school was a whirlwind. I can’t imagine what middle school is going to be like, and high school, and graduation.

Our necessities never equal our wants.

Trust is the glue of life. It’s the most essential ingredient in effective communication. It’s the foundational principle that holds all relationships.

None of us will ever accomplish anything excellent or commanding except when he listens to this whisper which is heard by him alone.

I change my mind a lot. I usually don’t agree with what I say very much. I’m an awful liar.

I take my kids to school. And if I go to work, I go to work, and they visit me on set. I come home. I have dinner with my family. I have breakfast with my family. I have a very solid, very warm home.

My mom, she was a very, very soft woman. It was hard for her to yell or even curse. But when it came to fighting for her kids, she found a strength she didn’t always know she had.

Being a kid’s not easy. You’re transforming and becoming a human being. At some point, you have everyone taking care of you, and then, all of a sudden, you’re out in the world.

My parents were just constantly affirming me in everything that I did. Late at night, I’d wake up and hear my mother talking over my bed, saying, ‚You’re going to do great on this test. You can do anything you want.‘

I sometimes have a tendency to walk on the dark side.

When you put down the good things you ought to have done, and leave out the bad ones you did do well, that’s Memoirs.

We are made wise not by the recollection of our past, but by the responsibility for our future.

I’m touring the world, not doing nothing against the law, getting money to feed my family. I got employees that have felonies, and they can’t get jobs. They work for me.

Nobody can ever make enough money for as many poor relatives as I’ve got. Somebody’s got a sick kid, or somebody needs an operation, somebody ain’t got this, somebody ain’t got that. Or to give the kids all a car when they graduate.

If you want to know who your friends are, get yourself a jail sentence.

You can’t go backward in life.

With every word we utter, with every action we take, we know our kids are watching us. We as parents are their most important role models.

Our mind is capable of passing beyond the dividing line we have drawn for it. Beyond the pairs of opposites of which the world consists, other, new insights begin.

Sometimes I catch myself stooping, and whenever I am like that, I am sure something is not quite right.

I don’t think I’m an unlucky person.

For a long time, I thought I was ugly and disfigured. This made me shy and timid, and I often reacted to insults that were not intended.

You can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you.

Wherever I go, as long as I get a hot vegetable dish, I am okay. If I am in Gujarat, I have Gujarati food. If it’s Shillong, it’s northeastern.

I mean we all need a second chance sometimes.

Life guided me to being a bodyguard, protecting people, then in the movies, so I’m happy with everything because basically all I ever wanted to do was be a good son and take care of my mother.

He who conquers others is strong; He who conquers himself is mighty.

As we grow old, the beauty steals inward.

If I were a woman, I would love to have lots of kids. But for men, I don’t believe in it.

My family has very strong women. My mother never laughed at my dream of Africa, even though everyone else did because we didn’t have any money, because Africa was the ‚dark continent‘, and because I was a girl.

If I can give you one strong piece of advice, when you go away for that romantic weekend, whatever you do, do not accept or take the upgrade to the honeymoon suite.

Alimony – the ransom that the happy pay to the devil.

People suffer because they are caught in their views. As soon as we release those views, we are free and we don’t suffer anymore.

Therapy? I don’t need that. The roles that I choose are my therapy.

Never fret for an only son, the idea of failure will never occur to him.

The trained mind is a rich mind.

We are cups, constantly and quietly being filled. The trick is, knowing how to tip ourselves over and let the beautiful stuff out.

A child cannot be taught by anyone who despises him, and a child cannot afford to be fooled.

In so many ways, segregation shaped me, and education liberated me.

You teach your daughters the diameters of the planets and wonder when you are done that they do not delight in your company.

One must know oneself. If this does not serve to discover truth, it at least serves as a rule of life and there is nothing better.

I’ve been searching for ways to heal myself, and I’ve found that kindness is the best way.

My moms always told me, ‚How long you gonna play the victim?‘ I can say I’m mad and I hate everything, but nothing really changes until I change myself.

I remember thinking quite logically that I didn’t want to spoil my children with wealth and so that I would create a foundation, but not knowing exactly what it would focus on.

What I have in common with the character in ‚Truman‘ is this incredible need to please people. I feel like I want to take care of everyone and I also feel this terrible guilt if I am unable to. And I have felt this way ever since all this success started.

I haven’t changed at all. I’m the same as when I was 11.

The ‚Billionaire‘ song is what my kids tease me with. They sing it to me. It’s funny.

Had I been a great athlete, I’m not sure I would have even gone into coaching. I may have turned out feeling that my life ended when my athletic career ended, as happens so many times with various athletes.

I could do one show after another in China for the rest of my life and still die ignorant. There’s a lot of places left to go.

The greatest legacy one can pass on to one’s children and grandchildren is not money or other material things accumulated in one’s life, but rather a legacy of character and faith.

If you want a love message to be heard, it has got to be sent out. To keep a lamp burning, we have to keep putting oil in it.

Move out of your comfort zone. You can only grow if you are willing to feel awkward and uncomfortable when you try something new.

With the casino and the beds, our passengers will have at least two ways to get lucky on one of our flights.

I did stand-up for my grandparents every day when I was, like, eight.
