If it hadn't been for Paul Bearer, there would not have been a Kane. For that, I'm forever grateful.

I think the great thing about the WWE universe is that they just love to see us perform.

I would consider myself a Reagan Republican.

Just like everyone else, I was a big fan of Paul Bearer and Percy Pringle and all of the other names that he went by.

Control freak politicians never rest, and a few of the more dedicated ones are working relentlessly to slap chains on the world's most unfettered market. The Marketplace Fairness Act will end up forcing consumers to pay higher prices for the goods they desire.

I just want to do a good job as mayor.

I would definitely say the WWE superstars are underrated athletically. In fact, that's one of the things that always attracted me to wrestling.

I was playing college football, and I hurt my knee very badly my senior year, and I didn't want to get a real job.

I just want to remain relevant and remain performing at a high level, which I think I do night in and night out. As long as I can do that and I enjoy doing what I'm doing, I'm going to keep on doing it.

I'm as far outside of the mainstream political establishment as you can get.

If you look at guys like Shawn Michaels, Triple H, and Undertaker, the reason why they are around so long is because they keep things interesting, and hopefully, I have been able to do it as well.

Daniel Bryan is a friend of mine. It's sort of funny that the relationship that you saw between Team Hell No on screen, it sometimes goes the same way off screen as well. He is a great human being and good friend of mine, and frankly, the Team Hell No stuff helped me.

I believe, in America, we're a nation of people that are self-governors. This idea that only a chosen few elites have the ability to make decisions is foreign to me.

Kane has always been sort of a dark character.

Anyone that watches WWE realizes a lot of times we do big stuff. We're considered over the top.

The federal government gets a lot press, and that's what the media talks about, but your state and local governments, in many ways, have more impact on your life than the federal government does.

I'm very much a 'one day at a time' kind of guy.

We've all heard the phrase 'equal pay for equal work.' Many of those who habitually repeat this mantra may not realize that it is simply a variation of the discredited labor theory of value (LTV), which is generally associated with Marxian economics.

Getting to work with The Undertaker right off the bat was a tremendous opportunity. It was an opportunity to be a career-maker, and fortunately, I was able to take advantage of that.

I'm not worried about a 'blue wave,' I just think Republicans have to act like Republicans and govern like Republicans.

You can't make everyone happy. You just do what you can, and that's it... you're always going to catch criticism no matter what you do.

I'm not always the guy getting knocked down a whole lot. My body probably hasn't been punished as much as the other guys have been. I think it's because I show up every day, and I try to do my best - give everything I have.

It's gratifying to see people come up to me and thank me for entertaining them.

My interest in economics just basically comes because I think I'm a curious person, and I'm interested in how the world works.

I've been in WWE for 22 years, and that's a long time, and I still think I perform at a high level.

When I was very first getting into wrestling, the Undertaker was my favorite.

I've always been happy about what's gone on in my career. It's been tremendous: more than I can ever hope for.

I've always been interested in politics.

I always believed I could win the election. After I won the primary, people started telling me, 'No one thought you had a chance.' I was like, 'Really?' I thought I could win the whole time.

I think one of the things that will really surprise people about 'See No Evil 2' is the fact that its so beautifully shot. It's really a pretty movie.

People ask what the advantages are of wearing a mask, and the first thing, of course, is the mystery - people don't know exactly what Kane is thinking.

Knox County is home. I love it here, and I love the people.

What we do in WWE is not a sacrifice. Being out on the road all the time, and all the bumps and bruises, that sort of thing is difficult but also a joy and a pleasure. It's brought so much happiness into my life. I wouldn't have it any other way.

I've been in WWE for 22 years and reached a point in my career where, within the locker room, I'm one of the people that guys come to if something needs to be discussed. I'm also one of the people that the WWE executives, if there is a problem in the locker room, I'm one people that is consulted about that.

I'm really happy to see Braun Strowman. People ask me who reminds me of me, and it's probably him. So, I'm really happy to see him doing so well.

I personally hate psychiatrists. When I was a kid, I saw quite a few of them, and they ruin everything.

Freddy Krueger was one of my childhood heroes.

Knox County, Tennessee, is a great place to live, work, and raise a family.

I think sometimes we put blinders on and define our personas very narrowly and are afraid to step outside the comfort zone - something I've never been afraid to do.

I think the key to the longevity is being able to reinvent yourself and to adopt and incorporate different things into your character.

I have always taken everything as it comes and tried to stay in good shape.

I think what The Rock has been able to accomplish has been amazing. He has just done a phenomenal job in all of the movies he has been in.

In the end, Kane will be remembered as a character I played on TV. In that respect, I want people to remember me for more than that.

I've been very fortunate that I haven't gotten injured a bunch. I try to take care of myself. I think, too, my size gives me an advantage in some ways.

The great thing about libertarianism is it really is the American dream: It's the ability of everybody to live their life and build their life according to what they want, so long as they don't hurt anybody else.

I was a little nervous at my first match, but I think I did OK. I went home after the match and watched the tape of it over and over. I wanted to do it again.

For someone my size, it's difficult to be inconspicuous.

I work out five to six times a week.
