I do know I want to have children. That's the only thing missing in my life. I certainly thought I'd have some by now.

I started Pilates. I'm the only guy in there. They plot before I get there: 'How can we make John look ridiculous?' Because every exercise involved my legs up, like I'm in the stirrups or something.

I've had a fairy tale life. I had a perfect family, a beautiful childhood, an incredible upbringing. I lived a lot of life but a lot of good life.

I went to Broadway and I've been doing some fun guest spots with 'Entourage' and 'Glee' and I'm ready to have my own show.

When I was 16 or 17, I remember kissing one of my first girlfriends, Kim Anderson, under a stairwell at Disneyland. I'll never forget that feeling.

This is an old family secret, and I just found this out recently, and it almost broke my heart. My mother said to me, 'I had never told you this, but God, you were an ugly baby'.

I swim, I do Pilates, I meditate - I think it's about keeping your stress level as low as you can.

I'm finally looking older and inviting my wrinkles.

I'll be able to pull off playing an unlikable character because inherently, I think I'm likable.

These younger kids - I think growing up with social media, they're just savvy.

I like to sing with people, whether they're good or not.

Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.

I remember the story of the old man who said on his deathbed that he had had a lot of trouble in his life most of which never happened.

Do you want to be safe and good, or do you want to take a chance and be great?

Why would anyone lie? The truth is always more colorful.

The thing that I prefer, when I'm working on a book, is to do a seven-day week, because it's easy to lose some of the details of what you're doing along the way.

Our heroine knew that the mother would always leave the window open for her children to fly back by; so they stayed away for years and had a lovely time.

Life is not at the mercy of matter.

American and Vietnamese characters alike leap to life through the voice and eyes of a tenyearold girl-a protagonist so strong, loving, and vivid I longed to hand her a wedge of freshly cut papaya.

Only in the most unusual cases is it useful to determine whether a book is good or bad; for it is just as rare for it to be one or the other. It is usually both.

I want to tell you, don't marry suffering. Some people do. They get married to it, and sleep and eat together, just as husband and wife. If they go with joy they think it's adultery.
