Fame introduced me to a world of instant gratification and decadence I hadn't seen before.

When you release endorphins, you just feel good.

I never really had that father figure to look up to. I think that's the reason I'm so ambitious. I felt like I wasn't appreciated as a child so I wanted to prove my worth as an adult, as an actor.

I don't want to be one of those 40-something guys in L.A. still dating, still going out to clubs and chasing 21-year-olds. It's not a good look.

The reason so many celebrities try to keep things secret is you want the chance to get to know someone without the glare of public scrutiny.

I'm estranged from my father and that relationship, as a young man, is incredibly important. It's probably responsible for the man I've become.

I don't think I'm destined to be the eternal bachelor.

There's no perfect relationship. All relationships are work. If you put in the work, you'll reap the rewards.

The workers love Khrushchev very much. He hasn't got an enemy in the entire country. Quite a few under it.

If the chi is being wasted by useless activities, emotions and associations that drain us, then we don't have enough power when it comes time to perform.

There is an hour wherein a man might be happy all his life, could he find it.

The ground swell is what’s going to sink you as well as being what buoys you up. These are clichés also, of course, and I’m sometimes interested in how much one can get away with.

Management and union may be likened to that serpent of the fables who on one body had two heads that fighting each other with poisoned fangs, killed themselves.

The triumph can't be had without the struggle.
