I draw from my family and my friends and I feel like that small-town person. The achievements the materialistic possessions have really become to mean less. They mean nothing.

My mom has made it possible for me to be who I am. Our family is everything. Her greatest skill was encouraging me to find my own person and own independence.

I'm a strong person I'm a strong family man I'm a strong husband and a strong father.

Personal sins should not require press releases and problems within a family shouldn't have to mean public confessions.

Let your family staff and friends know that you're still the same person despite all the publicity and notoriety that accompanies your position.

Christmas can have a real melancholy aspect 'cause it packages itself as this idea of perfect family cohesion and love and you're always going to come up short when you measure your personal life against the idealized personal lives that are constantly thrust in our faces primarily by TV commercials.

It's hard knowing who to trust with your personal life. When you cry in your room at night you don't always know who to call. So I am very close to my family.

Probably the worst time in a person's life is when they have to kill a family member because they are the devil. But otherwise it's been a pretty good day.

My family and I would never receive royalties on the revenue that my materials brought into the church materials that were created on our own personal time.

I love my family and I miss them very much but I'm a new person now. I know a lot of people will not agree with what I've done but it was right for me.
