I'm blessed to have cool roles in these big movies.

I love the idea of going to work and having to fight and learn a new skill set, whether it's muay Thai or Kali or Filipino stick fighting. To me, it's like college for life.

I think cinema should provoke thoughts, sure, but using it as I soapbox I think is the wrong place.

I like to stay busy, I like to stay focused, and I like to stay creative. Without being creative I'd be dead.

Not every actor gives their life to do this job. Some just do it as a job. Well, it's my life.

I have a bad sweet tooth. I'm pretty good when I have to eat well for work, but otherwise, I could eat a whole roll of raw cookie dough.

I used to hang out at karaoke bars all the time. It was the most fun you could have when you had no money.

I'm not very good at taking compliments. It's better than getting slapped in the face, I suppose.

I want to be a good human being.

In the 'Hurt Locker' there's a lot of me in there, a sense of humor, a man of few words and a lot of action.

I lived by the candlelight for two years because I couldn't afford power. It was nice and romantic at the time, but if you can't afford power you're pretty broke. You endure it.

In general, nine-tenths of our happiness depends on our health alone.

This is who I was, before I was dead. When I cared, when I was relentless.

Past is dead Future is uncertain; Present is all you have, So eat, drink and live merry.

I'll never run for office. But I intend, either on the fiscal commission or on issues like immigration, to hopefully have my voice be heard.

Music does not excite until it is performed.

The Teutons have been singing the swan song ever since they entered the ranks of history. They have always confounded truth with death.

Art is the highest expression of the human spirit.

There is only ever one answer to the question what did you do with your life, and it's the same--fleeting and unknowable--for every one of us. I lived.

I don't think anything is forever, but when my kids tell me they love me, that's forever.

You free. Nothing and nobody is obliged to save you but you.
