I've had some great times with actresses, but that's in a movie.

You go back to those films of the '40s and '50s and hear the dialogue, the way the people played off each other, the wordplay. I think we've really lost that in movies.

I just like to keep challenging myself, keep it varied. It's a craft, and I'm constantly trying to learn and get better at it.

Parenthood and family come first for me, and when I'm not working I'm cool with the Teletubbies.

I feel for those 19-year-olds who get thrust into the limelight that young.

It's important to me that everyone is treated with respect.

I always want my options to be open.

Every journalist who is not too stupid or too full of himself to notice what is going on knows that what he does is morally indefensible.

You won't find a better young actor than Jaeden Lieberher. I ended up having one of the best times with him, really. Going to work with him every day was a treat.

I was never a guy that was really good with a gang of guys anyway.

I'm interested in avoiding two types of behaviour [in my children]: one is the sense of guilt and the other is a sense of entitlement. If these two are avoided, then the rest is up to them.

If something is not good enough, stop doing it.

Educate yourself, learn about what refugees face when they don't have homes, after they have lost everything.

Seal the openings, shut the doors, dull the sharpness, untie the knots, dim the light, become one with the dust. This is called the profound union.

The truly valiant dare everything but doing anybody an injury.

Few years ago I did 30m in 3.7 seconds. Whether that makes me quicker than [Usain] Bolt, I don't know! We all know Usain is the best.

Vast is the field of Science... the more a man knows, the more he will find he has to know.

The golden rule of drums is hands clapping and feet tapping, and when you are in and out of consciousness, you can't do that to best of your ability.
