'Truth Will Set U Free' is about honesty. My philosophic belief that ultimately being true to yourself is liberating with every individual's inalienable right to be who they are without fear or recrimination.

Honest to God all my life I have had such a fear of spiders. In fact I use to have a reoccurring dream about one. Very clearly it was black with a red head. It would sit up in the corner of the bedroom and when it started getting closer I would wake up in a panic.

We should face reality and our past mistakes in an honest adult way. Boasting of glory does not make glory and singing in the dark does not dispel fear.

Dare to be honest and fear no labor.

One of the hardest things for me now that I'm famous is finding people who can read my stuff and give me an honest critique.

Well yeah. At a certain point you've got to be really honest with yourself. Like 'Why am I doing this? What are my motivations?' Like if you get into it because you want to be famous? Then you've got a long row to hoe. But if you really feel like it's a labour of love and it's something you're actually legitimately good at then it's not that hard to keep plugging away.

My family was all born in Sicily and I'm Italian-American. They're the real thing. They're authentic Italians and honestly they're the most open-minded nicest people in the world and nothing can really offend them. That's the way I think true Sicilians are.

There's an honesty in our family - my kids and I are able to talk about things without me putting the fear of God into them.

Do it no matter what. If you believe in it it is something very honorable. If somebody around you or your family does not understand it then that's their problem. But if you do have a passion an honest passion just do it.

Nixon was the most dishonest individual I have ever met in my life. He lied to his wife his family his friends his colleagues in the Congress lifetime members of his own political party the American people and the world.
