“Look, any guy who tells you that he didn't have some fears is lying. Of course, it's scary becoming a dad for a variety of reasons. That's not to say it isn't thrilling. It was.

It is a good thing to always step back a bit with things like that. But I try my damned hardest to learn something from everything I do.”
