"It's important for me to take some time to process this amazing experience we've gone through, to make sure that my wife, with whom I will be celebrating a 25th anniversary with, is willing to re-up and put up with me for a little bit longer."

"I want to do some writing. I want to be quiet a little bit and not hear myself talk so damn much. I want to spend some precious time with my girls."
