I believe in possibility, but I'm not sure I believe in demons.

I usually spend the hiatus of 'Dexter' in New York in a way to balance things.

I hate to say it because I feel like it might be a jinx, but yes - knock on wood - I have never broken a bone.

I love that there's a beginning, middle and end to a film and you can craft what the whole journey is going to look like.

Well, I made an announcement to my family at 8 that I wanted to be an actor, and I focused like a laser beam on it. I never had a fallback plan.

It's sacred for an actor to keep their personal life personal.

My sister is a chiropractor and she says I have an unusually flexible lower back, but I don't do yoga, and I don't feel like I'm very bendy.

My laundry list of wants in a partner is basically kindness. I want someone who is kind, and that's kind of where it begins and ends. I'm open to being surprised.

It's fun to branch out a bit. I feel like I've held a lot of tricks up my sleeve for a lot of years, and 'Ex-Girlfriends' is a good way to show another side of me.

I read Christopher McDougall's book 'Born to Run.' If running were a religion, this would be its bible. I actually scribbled my favorite passages on my arm to read during the race.

Practice being in the moment when you are running, whether you are on your own or in the race.

The most powerful affirmation you will ever find is this: “I am as God created me.

We didn’t believe in tomorrow. We we couldn’t forget what had happened yesterday.

You don't have to do something every day that scares you. There's no fun in being terrified. Do one thing every day that makes you happy.

Being able to feel love, loyalty, gratitude and happiness means you have a soul? Then all my pets are bound for heaven.

Yet in this global economy, no jobs are safe. High-speed Internet connections and low-cost, skilled labor overseas are an explosive combination.

The elk are the most abundant large herbivores in the Yellowstone ecosystem. There are thousands and thousands of them. They migrate in and out. And those migration routes need to stay open.

Nature is slow, but sure; she works no faster than need be; she is the tortoise that wins the race by her perseverance.

I'm not tied to any particular political line.

As for the law of moral causation ('karma'): this is human justice dressed up as cosmic justice and then imputed to the impersonal workings of the natural world.

I was one of those people who was always rather frightened of women politicians.
