I like someone who embraces life; who wants to be on a long journey but has no particular plan or destination in mind. An adventurous man, open to the concept of living life in the moment.

Running gives you a great opportunity to work stuff out in your head.

Running - and yoga, too - is my sanity and my saviour. It's just finding the time to do it!

I'd gone through the ups and downs and curveballs that life throws at you. I found writing to be very therapeutic and it helped me with a lot of the stuff I was going through.

I've found it easier to write, to coalesce my thoughts, since having children. It brings you back to what you experienced yourself as a child, and you empathize with what your parents went through.

To be a good model, I'd need a lot more confidence... and more confidence to be more bare.

To be honest I never thought the acting thing would get off the ground.

When you're an actor working in the theater, you would never say anything to the writer, never alter the dialogue, never dream to ask for changes.

It's like real life: We don't get a preview of what's coming up, thank God, and we don't build our own character from what we're going to be informed with in the future.

Give what you can, take what you need.

Simplicity is a key to avoiding complication. Part of the definition of simplicity is 'not complex or complicated; sincere.'

I've never had that fear of going against the grain.

Television, I'm afraid, has isolated us more than race, class, or ethnicity.

I also want to make sure that when we debate these things [hackers attacks], that we actually have the facts that are very clear in front of us to have this debate.

I realized that everything I do is fantasy, whether it is an adult movie or a kids movie.

The idea part is simple but the visual perception is complex.

Of what import are brief, nameless lives . . . to Galactus?

Your heart is sacred land. Don't let just anything enter it. Guard it with your life.
