I've been very lucky, and therefore I owe it to try and reduce the inequity in the world. And that's kind of a religious belief. I mean, it's at least a moral belief.

I think you have a moral responsibility when you've been given far more than you need, to do wise things with it and give intelligently.

I've got a life that really matters to me, and that's because of the way I was raised. My ethics are high because my parents did a great job.

My parents taught me to approach the world critically, but also to approach it with a sense of responsibility.

When it comes down to it, I believe that, having made the decision to bring children into the world, I owe it to them to be as present as I can in their daily lives and to try my best to stay alive until they've made it through to adulthood.

I was taught from a young age that I had to serve, so that turned into me thinking I had to save the planet.

I was a very serious young man, very committed to saving the world.

My parents sacrificed so much for all of us. It makes me want to give back to them by being the best I can be.

My parents, Gary and Patricia, let me be in my world. They never told me what I couldn't do. It helped me adapt in a positive way.

Saving people, helping people, is just something I always wanted to do.
