I stepped away to find out more about myself which I was having difficulty doing as a football player. I got a chance to travel the world. I studied Eastern philosophy and I've grown as a person so much.

People have to make journeys what we want is people to have alternatives in public transport so that they can make a choice about the sort of way in which they're going to travel.

I grew up in South Africa and I would look at maps and we were at the bottom of the world. There was this whole thing up there. I was always reading encyclopedias about the world. So travel was something I was always attracted to.

The thing about Hemingway that people forget is that all the stuff he did was at a time where people weren't traveling that much. At 19 he travels to Italy. He goes to the Spanish Civil War. He goes to China he goes to Africa so at that time to travel that much is really incredible.

When I travel I love speaking to women around the world about the things that inspire them the fashions they like what makes something good and what would make it even better.

We are what our thoughts have made us so take care about what you think. Words are secondary. Thoughts live they travel far.

The time to enjoy a European trip is about three weeks after unpacking.

To travel is to discover that everyone is wrong about other countries.

People who don't know me have opinions about me. That's the part that's very hurtful. Because how do you form an opinion about somebody if you've never met them or spent any time with them? So it's all based upon hearsay or things that they've read.

And as a character what I found very inspiring about playing Dharma especially at that time is that the women on television were more neurotic than they were free. And I thought this is a rare bird and this is unique on television and I think it's really refreshing.

If we don't get gun-control laws in this country we are full of beans. To have the National Rifle Association rule the United States is pathetic. And I agree with Mayor Michael Bloomberg: It's time to put up or shut up about gun control for both parties.

Now I'm fighting cancer everybody knows that. People ask me all the time about how you go through your life and how's your day and nothing is changed for me.

The man of sensibility is too busy talking about his feelings to have time for good deeds.

All my life whenever it comes time to make a decision I make it and forget about it.

I try to forget about the expectation that's out there and the audience listening for the next thing so that I'm not trying to please them. I've spent a huge amount of time not communicating with those folks and denying that they exist.

No one can possibly know what is about to happen: it is happening each time for the first time for the only time.

Realize that if you have time to whine and complain about something then you have the time to do something about it.

I wish life was not so short he thought. languages take such a time and so do all the things one wants to know about.

I try to keep it real. I don't have time to worry about what I'm projecting to the world. I'm just busy being myself.

To be always intending to make a new and better life but never to find time to set about it is as to put off eating and drinking and sleeping from one day to the next until you're dead.

People say that if you find water rising up to your ankle that's the time to do something about it not when it's around your neck.

If you're living in your time you cannot help but to write about the things that are important.

We are drowning in information while starving for wisdom. The world henceforth will be run by synthesizers people able to put together the right information at the right time think critically about it and make important choices wisely.

I'm not interested in trying to work on people's perceptions. I am who I am and if you don't take the time to learn about that then your perception is going to be your problem.
