I love the normalcy of Cleveland. There's regular people there.
There's no way I can justify my salary level, but I'm learning to live with it.
Liquor prohibition led to the rise of organized crime in America, and drug prohibition has led to the rise of the gang problems we have now.
I see my face in the mirror and go, 'I'm a Halloween costume? That's what they think of me?'
I love Las Vegas. I like that Las Vegas has everything. Everything and anything you want to do, you can do in Las Vegas.
My fans are pretty normal, they are always really nice and polite, and they don't interrupt my meals.
But I don't want to lose touch with things like eating in Bob's Big Boy.
Everybody in Hollywood loves symbolic gestures.
I'm never afraid to die. I think that's the best thing that can happen to somebody is they get to move on and do something better.
Even when people are rich and successful on TV shows, there's always some trouble - you have to poke holes in them, throw them out of a job, put a pie in the face.
But sports photography isn't something you just pick up overnight. You can't do it once a year for fun and expect to do a good job. And I take pride in what I do.
Being a celebrity you always get really good seats to sporting events but you never get as good seats as the photographers get. And I really love sports. So one of the scams I have going now is I want to learn sports photography so I can get better seats at a sporting event.
When I thought I was retired, I wanted to travel around the world and watch soccer games.
When I play poker, I don't like losing the pot.
