I'm terrible. I'm the wrong person to talk to, I really don't know a thing.

I don't know if anyone will ever sit beside me on a plane again.

My only two constants are to challenge myself and to try not to repeat myself.

I like being at home with my music and my books. I’ve done all the partying, I’ve done enough partying for four or five people as a young fella. But now I like the quiet life.

I personally think if something's not a challenge there's no point doing it because you're not gonna learn much.

I will always love film, the romance of film, sitting in the darkened room with strangers and watching a story for two hours - that will always remain and never be eroded by television.

I was obsessed with Batman as a kid. I did the film in part just to be near the Batmobile. But I also think [director] Christopher Nolan made a very fine, intelligent film.

You know, I'm a skinny Irish guy.

I don't have a burning passion to live in America per se but I would certainly like to work there.

If you behave like a celebrity, then people will treat you like a celebrity, and if you don't, they won't. There's not much to write about me in the tabloids.

And once you're unafraid with death, I think your capacity for violence is immediately increased. Once you're unafraid of death, you are a very, very dangerous adversary

A shared life is a sacred love.

Once chosen, forever chosen.

The days seem short, and time seems too little to do what you love.

Yet where Denal had prayed to Poseidon for death, Alaric was praying to the same god for life.

Songs are usually unfit for whistling - indeed, whistling (except to the person doing it) is unbearable.

I want Pinterest to be human. The Internet's still so abstract... To me, boards are a very human way of looking at the world.

Mathematics, even in its present and most abstract state, is not detached from life. It is just the ideal handling of the problems of life.

It is a besetting vice of democracies to substitute public opinion for law. This is the usual form in which masses of men exhibit their tyranny.

All thoughts start from emotions.

Zeus detests above all the boasts of a proud tongue.
