I was a show-off as a kid and loved to dress up. I was constantly in costume, drawing mustaches on with eyeliner and letting my sister plait my hair and all that.

A person can't know what happiness is without experiencing sadness. And I think that's healthy.

I was a bit of a show-off in school and loved playing dress-up, and my passion for it just grew as I got older.

My mum is a school teacher and my dad is an electrician.

I went to the Avengers: Age of Ultron and I'm like, "These guys are Olympians now." There's no place for a Walter Matthau in a movie anymore.

I had this alter ego where I would go to the theater with mom. I wasn't embarrassed by it; it was separate for me.

I've always played sport. I played rugby, I was involved in athletics, I played cricket... I'm an outdoors kind of guy.

I'm not someone who has a lengthy attention span, and that applies to my exercise routine as well.

I was always realistic about the fact I wanted to be involved with big films.

When you're working with people you've seen in hundreds of films... it's a bit crazy to step outside yourself for a minute and think, 'This is surreal.' But I try not to get too bogged down in that.

I started coming to L.A. as often as I could, for three months on and three months off, because immigration kicks you out after 90 days.

Don't allow ambition to rob you of destiny.

Communism is a hateful thing, and a menace to peace and organized government.

The buying of more books than one can read is nothing less than the soul reaching toward infinity.

There may be times in a girl's life when it's better to be boyless, but there's no need to be joyless. Or toyless.

Having members of the Bush administration actually sit down and discuss counter terrorism with the very countries that support terrorists is absurd.

Led Zeppelin is the greatest. Robert Plant is one of the most original vocalists of our time. As a rock band they deserve the kind of success they're getting.

He who possesseth little is so much the less possessed. Blessed be moderate poverty!

A brave man scorns to quarrel once a day; Like Hectors in at every petty fray.

Our internal state determines our experience of our lives; our experiences do not determine our internal state.

This solution may not appeal to our human pride, but the problem is that our human pride in itself is sinful.
