I don't like the idea of talking down to kids. I think I was talked down to, and you rebel against that.

My life is pretty hectic, but I'm really into it.

Time goes a lot quicker when the work is a lot more enjoyable.

I'm not immune to the charms of the female form. And when I was 17 and I spent every spare minute surfing, most of the girls we hung out with would be topless.

I didn't grow up with money, but I grew up with a lot of space. All I did was surf. I was committed to the ocean. That's one thing about Australians; we have the capacity to embrace life.

I am very straight-forward and direct. If I disagree with something, I say something about it.

I think my kids are pretty well-rounded citizens of the world.

Sometimes the intensity and the grind of doing television can wear you down, but at the same time there's something about the repetition, the sheer mass of work that you do that's also liberating.

I don't like fancy fiddly girlie stuff.

I try to be straightforward and honest with my kids, and I believe nothing beats good old hard work.

If you can't be proud of what you do, go and sell shoes. Do something else.

If you want to be reminded of the love of the Lord, just watch the sunrise.

A dangerous and treacherous path is only worth it when the desire to have courage outweighs the driving need to get to the other side.

Life wants you to live in total alignment with true love, passion and integrity.

Your imagination s a wonderland full of realities.

Starting your day with anger is like locking yourself in jail. The outside world is enjoying life, while you’re locked in your own frustration.

The survival of religion is on the basis of torture and punishment

Faith is Hope on a treadmill. Love is the reason we stay on.

If one day someone came up to me and was like, 'Look, you're never going to act again,' I don't know what I would do.

Being famous hasn't made my life any easier. Every minute I'm dealing with the baby-sitters is one more minute I'm not training.

My wife and I are a team, and it's good for my work because I'm interested in working from a stable base.
