For the youth, the indignation of most things will just surge as each birthday passes.

The point is that when I see a sunset or a waterfall or something, for a split second it's so great, because for a little bit I'm out of my brain, and it's got nothing to do with me.

I always say that the times in my life when I've been happiest are the times when I've seen, like, a sunset.

I can handle the craziness some of the time, maybe most of the time. But I know I can't handle it all of the time.

I'm reminded of who I am, who I was, and who I'm supposed to be.

The comic book world is so dangerous, you know what I mean? You say one thing and people - they're ravenous - they are very opinionated fans. But they're great fans.

I decided to make 'Captain America' because I realized I wasn't doing the film because it terrified me. You can't make decisions based on fear.

I don't know any form of art or entertainment that can affect people the way movies can. I know it sounds ridiculous, but they can change your world. They can change your views.

I am single and not looking to be in a relationship.

But my happiness in this world - my level of peace - is never going to be dictated by acting.

I can’t believe I was almost too chicken to play Captain America.

Only the foolish would think that wisdom is something to keep locked in a drawer. Only the fearful would feel empowerment is something best kept to oneself, or the few, and not shared with all.

With confident, courage and consistency, the dream is certain.

God's most lordly gift to man is decency of mind.

When I really young yet feeling very old, I offered up a lot of myself to the press; I knew it was good copy.

Between me and life is a faint glass. No matter how sharply I see and understand life, I cannot touch it.

At my age, I regard each funeral I attend as a personal triumph, because I was not the guest of honor.

The most unfortunate thing that happens to a person who fears failure is that he limits himself by becoming afraid to try anything new.

That which is not forbidden, is not on that account permitted.

But why look back at all? Why turn your eyes to your shadow, when, by looking upward, you see your rainbow in the same direction?

Knavery's plain face is never seen till used.
