The standards are being lowered, not just on the Internet, but in all of news and media.

From a person standpoint, the old expression of what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger is somewhat true.

I understand the common man because I understand me in that regard at least.

I don’t know what drives me, I don’t have a clue, but I’m driven more today than I ever have been.

We love our fans, so there’s nothing we wouldn’t do for them, and we go directly to t hem.

The biggest thrill in the world is entertaining the public, there is no bigger thrill than that.

When I’m on vacation here in the States, I can do all kinds of stuff; I can train and keep busy.

I guess maybe another gift I have is a great work ethic.

One of the problems with the Internet is that a lot of times it is inaccurate.

The key, of course, is to stay away from the losing years.

So no, I don’t think we’ve lost our edge at all.

I believe that given the audience attention level, we could do an even more compelling 90 minutes.

I’m not too good at lying still in the sun.

We do have our finger on the pulse of the marketplace, if for no other reasons than having all these live events and listening to our audience all the time.

I’m a real common sense guy who caught a lot of good breaks and who has been very, very fortunate.

We’re going to be treated very poorly, I think that goes with the territory, and you have to get over it, get beyond it and know who you are among your peers and especially among your family when you look in the mirror.

So, I get a kick out of working with the media.

I think that the Internet – and I do love the free flow of ideas on the ‘Net – is like the wild west of the information world.

I think there are certain business matters which we must now conduct differently than we used to.

But because our organization has grown so much and in so many different ways, the delegation process places responsibility and authority on the shoulders of people you can watch grow and watch the way they treat others.

So we’re living by that sword, and we’re going to cut every now and then from it’s backlash.

I would dare say that most anyone in public life, if they stay in public long enough, is not treated fairly.

Sometimes you have to take a half step back to take two forward.

That crossover of whether it’s entertainment or news is the biggest crock of b.s. in television today, because it’s all entertainment.

I’m not afraid of failing. I don’t like to fail. I hate to fail. But I’m not afraid of it.

The Rock will always come back to us.

It’s difficult to do that internally, because you’re flying five, six hours.

In America it’s live by the sword of freedom of expression and be will to die by it as well.

As far as sustaining our popularity, I believe we can.

In Europe we could do it, if we fly as soon as the event is over.

I’m excited about it, thrilled with the success thus far.

I have to do something with my mind, or I’ll get in trouble.
