I'm not really looking forward to wearing a black rubber suit in the summertime in humid Chicago. If you see a pool of sweat through the city, follow it and you will find me.

I tend to think you're fearless when you recognize why you should be scared of things, but do them anyway.

Whatever you do, do it completely. Don't do it half-arsed. Do it more than anybody else would.

The art of survival is a story that never ends.

It's about pursuing it rather than waiting to see what comes along.

It's the actors who are prepared to make fools of themselves who are usually the ones who come to mean something to the audience.

I think trying too hard to be sexy is the worst thing in the world a woman can do.

I find something fascinating about the quiet man in the background who has no desire to be the center of attention.

But I learned that there's a certain character that can be built from embarrassing yourself endlessly. If you can sit happy with embarrassment, there's not much else that can really get to ya.

Art is something to be proud of. Art is no compromise. As an actor, you're giving it up, you're at the mercy of so many other people.

I only sound intelligent when there's a good script writer around.

Be careful you don’t give up on what is yet to give you victory. Many people quit when they were yet to win. Successful people never quit and I believe no quitter had ever been successful too.

Ignorance is nothing more than an epidemic of people who want to stay sick.

I would have been trying to pitch a concept about my community to someone that most likely was not a part of that community.

An excellent wine, someone's best attempt at cooking, and the candles and flowers on the table can turn the simplest dinner into an unforgettably romantic event.

The greatest miracle of the Bible is that the prophets of Israel could keep a religion as clean as a hounds tooth amid all the corruption and idolatry of the nations surrounding them.

Flowers are reincarnation. They come out of the earth of our ashes. Nothing else looks so soul-like.

I love my small town, and I love going back there and supporting the community. But I could not have stayed there. No way.

Romania is an interesting place because I think it has been abused, on so many different levels.

I've had so many insecurities, and am still getting over a lot.

It's not for me to share the meanings of others. I am only in charge of my own.
