I have very high standards for myself and my career.

I like to have a hectic schedule.

I never want to be that guy at a dinner table saying, 'I wish I could have dessert.' I actually went through a stage when I would order dessert first.

Even on a $100 million film, people will complain that they haven't got enough money and enough time, so that's always going to be an element in filmmaking.

I've been acting for a long time now, but as narcissistic as this sounds - and I don't mean it to sound - every time I see my name up there, there is real sense of pride.

I've always been relatively reserved with my social encounters.

I don't know if my sense of humor goes over Americans' heads.

Don't feel like you're alone because you're not.

I love acting, so it's easy when you have a passion for it. I've always found the harder you work, the luckier you get.

My life is very much consumed with work.

Everyone in life knows what it's like to be picked on and to feel like an outsider.

Do what YOU want to do because if you don’t, you are nothing but your own slave.-RVM

When there is shortage of anointing, you will begin to doubt your calling

We all need our heroes, not just in time of chaos but also in the time of peace.

I don't understand why every guy is not a romantic. I enjoy it.

The more fearless we are in our personal lives, the more of that spirit we'll bring to changing our world.

I detest professional anythings but particularly professional writers. Most of them today are just garbage collectors.

I only knew that there was a certain rightness in life--the feeling you got when you did something the way you knew you should.

For me writing is like breathing. I could not live without breathing and I could not live without writing.

I always want to learn but I am sure on my dying day I will feel like I left something in the bucket.

Something good always happens at 4:20 for me.
