I never want to sell my soul for something I don't believe in. Because guess what? Somebody somewhere in the world would have believed in that part and should be playing it - who am I to not allow that person that opportunity?

I don't want to sell my soul to Hollywood - to just make run-of-the-mill stuff.

If I didn't write my soul would dry up and die.

One of my proudest moments is I didn't sell my soul for the sake of popularity.

I'd just come through cancer in 1995. Which really changed my soul. It really did. It changed me... It made my faith alive - and real. God's real.

For what shall it profit a man, if he gain the whole world, and suffer the loss of his soul?

Suppose you could gain everything in the whole world, and lost your soul. Was it worth it?

I've had some dark nights of the soul, of course, but giving in to depression would be a sellout, a defeat.
