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

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.

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

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

It's a privilege to act, and you have to protect and cherish it.

Having a profile means you have to be cautious of who you let into your world, as you don't know if they're being genuine or not, but it's more that it can be a strain on your relationships.

You connect with who you connect with, and if your feelings are strong enough then you'll make that work.

You must not grieve that the world is glimpsed through veils. How else can it be seen?

Voting for a political party with a cross stuck on it doesn't mean it reflects true Christianity (at least not how Christ intended it) nor does 'biblical governance' guarantee Christian governance.

We've had these bursts of cool years here or there but that's not change. That's a trend. You only hope that this could be the beginning of true change.

We are creating a world where anyone, anywhere may express his or her beliefs, no matter how singular, without fear of being coerced into silence or conformity.

Americans, indeed, often seem to be so overwhelmed by their children that they'll do anything for them except stay married to the co-producer.

I slithered out of the sinkhole on my stomach. It was not the sexiest move I'd ever performed, but I was impressed nonetheless.

Strive to be authentic all the time. That's sort of my philosophy on life, which applies to acting.

My journey as a player is complete.

I knew I was dog meat. Luckily, I'm the high-priced dog meat that everybody wants. I'm the good-quality dog meat. I'm the Alpo of the NBA.

I have sometimes thought that people are, in a sort, happy, that nothing can put out of countenance with themselves, though they neither have nor merit other people's.
