I like the consistency of a TV show, but I like it for three months out of my year, not nine.

As an actor, it's my job to make everything interesting and exciting and new. If I'm not doing my job well, then I'm stealing.

As far as behind the scenes, I absolutely want to get into making my own films and producing my own things.

One of the great things about being an actor is it serves a short attention span, which is something I have.

Happiness does not result from pleasure, but rather, from reaching one's goals.

I prefer to stay in my country. But this doesn't mean if someone does want to leave Iran, I think they've done something wrong - the desire to leave is completely understandable.

There is a creative solution to every problem. Every possibility holds the promise of abundance.

The world is always full of promise.

Genius is the ability to see the self-evident where the rest of the world turns blind.

Trying a case a second time is like eating yesterday morning's oatmeal.

There's always hope... even when there isn't faith. And sometimes, without hope or faith, there must be charity.

Most people would like to be delivered from temptation but would like it to keep in touch.

I am so impressed with people who can really make a big movie, a good movie. The amount of work that goes into it is incredible.

You are my koala bear, and I am your tree.
