I'm not confrontational, but if someone challenges, I'm not going to back down.
That's what my music does for me. It makes people happy. When I play, I thank the Lord I've never seen someone walk away from a Dick Dale dance not having a good time. That's what it's all about.
If someone is going down the wrong road, he doesn't need motivation to speed him up. What he needs is education to turn him around.
My parents instilled a really good work ethic from when I was little — if you want to have money to spend on holidays, you earn it. So I've always been someone who wanted to be able to survive by myself, but I think you have to let down the barriers a little bit — let other people in.
If you walk down the street and smile at someone, that will get passed on to the next person. That has the power to change someone's day.
The day you decide to pursue your dreams, don't forget that this is a game you don't enter to compete, but to win. And there will always be someone booing you in the stands, and everything you accomplish could be jeered and hissed at. This is a game between two that you have to win for the people who came to watch you be triumphant.

A good wife is someone who thinks she has done everything right: raising the kids, being there for the husband, being home, trying to do it all.
What defines someone as a 'man' should not be the clothes they wear or how deep their voice is. It should be the content of his character, his strength in the face of overwhelming adversity, and his ability to still love and help others when the world has turned its back on him.
I'm really just looking for an excuse to get in shape, so if someone could send me a role for a superhero movie, I'll get in shape, then you can just give it to someone else.
It's much easier to get a reception from someone if there is an introduction versus randomly trying to get in front of people.
It's better to be unhappy alone than unhappy with someone — so far.
I'm someone very comfortable airing out the stories of my own life. Some people call it narcissism, but for me, the intention is that it will positively affect other people.
It's better to be healthy alone than sick with someone else.
The key to life is accepting challenges. Once someone stops doing this, he's dead.
One of the greatest victories you can gain over someone is to beat him at politeness.
Well, you know, in any novel you would hope that the hero has someone to push back against, and villains — I find the most interesting villains those who do the right things for the wrong reasons, or the wrong things for the right reasons. Either one is interesting. I love the gray area between right and wrong.
