I was brought up in the modern world of all the luxury and the highlight of show business. I was born into a Christian home.

I suppose that by being absent from the music business, it appeared that I just dropped out, but really I never did. I was continuously working and doing various things.

A satisfied customer is the best business strategy of all.

It can be hard in this business, especially when you're very young, to figure out who you can and can't trust.

It's been a joy to be a part of other people's journey, to be able to inspire and be a part of new singers coming up in this business.

Baseball just a came as simple as a ball and bat. Yet, as complex as the American spirit it symbolizes. A sport, a business and sometimes almost even a religion.

For me, my business is my business and my house is my house. I don't want the public in my house.

I'm not a kid. You don't get in this business for anonymity. It's not like I have posters of myself on the wall, but at the same time, I'm kind of ready for a little bit of it, but I worry for my little one, and my family - their privacy. That's what I'm more protective of.

I'm a mad lover of sport. You cannot say a bad word to me about sports. So I know business is involved and I know it can be cynical, and, of course, I watch it, but for me it's pure.

At the end of drama school, I made a contract with myself: I'd try acting for five years. I was 26. I had already spent eight years working in restaurants and gas stations. So I had seen enough small businesses to understand that that's what acting is: a small business.
