Every actor chooses their story at the beginning.

I've been in fights, but that doesn't make me cool or like a tough guy or more interesting actor, I'm not proud of it.

And yeah, my handicap was down to a 10 when we were at the thick of it. I trained for six or seven months, golfing every day for six hours, seven days a week, with eight trainers. It was intense.

I go to sleep at night, and I feel like I just dreamed the whole day.

You can prepare all you want, but if you never roll the dice you'll never be successful.

I think penguins are the most human of all the birds, which may be why people love them. They're cute, they stand upright and they look like they're wearing tuxedos.

Clubs are so lame. Nobody even dances at these clubs. They stand around and get drunk and they schmooze. There is no enjoyment factor.

Everything that creates itself upon the backs of smaller scales will by those same scales be consumed.

Let your soul bloom like a flower with the beauty and fragrance of divine love.

I'm just myself, so I don't know that I think of myself as a nerd icon.

...love rather than fear...this radical philosophy is coming from me, an avowed misanthrope...surely there is hope for us all.

Love makes you wise. Love unites. Pain divides. Hate divides even more. Hate separates and brings us down to a very physical plane. Love elevates us to a plane of spirit.

There are plenty of ways to get ahead. The first is so basic I'm almost embarrassed to say it: spend less than you earn.

A close-up on screen can say all a song can.

Gently to hear, kindly to judge.

We all need to have a creative outlet - a window, a space - so we don't lose track of ourselves.
