I've always thought of acting as more of an exercise in empathy which is not to be confused with sympathy. You're trying to get inside a certain emotional reality or motivational reality and try to figure out what that's about so you can represent it.

I would love to be a guest on a talk show or a panel that shows women who have been on reality shows who've had success to prove to audiences that you don't have to be a fool to become successful.

Girlfriend and 100 Percent Fun were my two peeks around '92 and '96. The reality is that the times I had the most media success sold lots of records and played bigger shows I had the least control of my own life.

I thought doing reality TV would be the greatest success of my life or the biggest mistake.

What is called a sincere work is one that is endowed with enough strength to give reality to an illusion.

I come from hardworking determined people on both sides of my family... the kind who live with a hard reality from which much strength comes.

I also wanted to express the strength of cinema to hide reality while being entertaining. Cinema can fill in the empty spaces of your life and your loneliness.

There are almost no sports within which mortal accidents are not a reality.

When my TV show 'Sports Jobs with Junior Seau ' assigned me to be a 'Sports Illustrated' reporter for a weekend I didn't realize I'd have to squeeze it in around another sports job. I had planned to retire from the NFL to enjoy the cushy lifestyle of a full-time reality TV star but I wound up getting run over by a bull.

I think sometimes when it comes to sports and especially relationships between players and coaches that people lose track lose a sense of reality.
