- Eric: Looks only get you so far. You can't just sit there and be pretty for hours of dinner. I know it sounds cheesy, but I need an intellect. I like to know, 'What books have you read lately? What are you passionate about? What do you care about?' She should have values, morality and should be funny, charming.

- Eric (on the last time he cried): My brother's a Navy Seal, and he was deployed for six months. We didn't know when he was coming home. I remember the message on my voicemail that said he had just landed in New York. I just remember being so relieved and so happy and thankful.

- Eric: Happiness is the journey, not the destination. You should find happiness in what you're doing every day. When I first came out here, it was always about reaching the next level: education, the acting business, getting a commercial, a TV show, a movie. You're always working towards something bigger without really appreciating what you have in the moment.
