If we're destroying our trees and destroying our environment and hurting animals and hurting one another and all that stuff there's got to be a very powerful energy to fight that. I think we need more love in the world. We need more kindness more compassion more joy more laughter. I definitely want to contribute to that.

I think people should have the legal right to hurt themselves without fearing that they're going to get locked up for doing so. But on a personal level if someone I loved was hurting himself or herself in front of me I would of course try to restrain them.

I remember listening to the radio as a kid and finding that the songs always made me feel more peaceful. Funny but the more hurtin' the music was the better it made me feel.

Most comedy is based on getting a laugh at somebody else's expense. And I find that that's just a form of bullying in a major way. So I want to be an example that you can be funny and be kind and make people laugh without hurting somebody else's feelings.

I would say stay the hell away from the party scene. Anything you put in front of your goal and especially something like that whether it's too much gambling too much food too much cold beers on the weekend - anything that you put in front of the prize is going to end up getting in the way and hurting you in the end.

There's so many issues tied to the meat industry. I mean social environmental humanitarian - all of them. I know that when I'm eating that I'm not hurting the planet I'm not hurting other people on this planet I'm not hurting animals... and I'm not hurting nature.

After hurting myself like that I could not go back immediately to racing. I was in no condition mentally or physically. That helped me to strengthen myself to go through the hard times that were ahead with my business and to be successful.
