I think sharks are beautiful creatures, and I don't think we should stop going in the ocean because of them. You drive down the road and you get in an accident, but most people end up driving down the road again. Surfing is you're going into their home and it's just a natural part of life.

I gave my heart to Jesus when I was five-years-old and since then it's been a special relationship. To me it's not a religion it's just talking to God, reading his word, and doing my best to honor him in everything I do.

None of us are going to have perfect lives. Our own vision of what we think is good maybe different from what He [God] thinks. And we forget that. We think we know what's best and we don't.
