I've been enormously fortunate. People say, 'How do you feel about your reputation?' My real belief is that I have exactly the reputation I deserve... on the whole, I feel comfortable with myself.

Sting's my ideal man, because he's a real man.

I value my reputation. I work hard to avoid even the appearance of impropriety.

I mean, Sting is one of my great buddies and I love him to death.

I've always had a reputation as a buffoon.

I'm kind of proud of myself. I've been able to keep a certain grace about me, even in the times of disgrace and craziness.

I am most proud of my integrity and least proud of my cynicism.

Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.

You just remember back when you were watching as a kid and going, 'Man, Sting's so cool,' and now I'm wrestling the guy. It's breathtaking.

I'm sure Sting's a lovely guy. It's just that nobody wants to be seen as that holier-than-thou thing. That over-earnestness is a bit of a problem with people in bands and celebrities or whatever.
