"There is a place in this world for satire, but there is a time when satire ends and intolerance and bigotry towards religious beliefs of others begins. Religious beliefs are sacred to people, and at all times should be respected and honored. As a civil rights activist of the past 40 years, I cannot support a show that disrespects those beliefs and practices."

If you are not willing to take the shame on yourself, you then let it remain on Jesus Christ. You must bear the reproach of your sinful state of indifference, or the cause of our Master must bear it.”

“When it comes to men, deal with them as they are, not how youâ€™d like them to be.”
“Do not fall into the trap of thinking that just because a kata begins to the left that the opponent is attacking from the left.”
“I like to think that weâ€™re revolving on this planet and revolving through the galaxy. I love having context thatâ€™s so much bigger than I can fathom. Itâ€™s fantastic to realise how insignificant you are.”
