In a career playing heroes, I learned a little about the real thing. A hero stands up-for himself, for herself, but most importantly for others.

I told Clooney, George, you’re worth $100 million — of course you can afford to be a socialist!

I don't understand why Christians are taking such a bashing...and why do we glorify people that do destructive things?

I'm lucky to be alive. It took three years of therapy to recover but I did it.

I've always been a religious guy, but not overly religious. I've always believed in God and Jesus. I pray.

I've always said even the most hardened pro-choice people would be just devastated to watch an actual birth and then watch a baby be killed before their eyes.

There are so many negative things out there on television and movies right now. Even the daily news, it gets depressing.

If the past could be changed, it would not exist. If the future could be stopped, it would not survive. If the present could be avoided, it would not prevail.

AMNESTY, n. The state's magnanimity to those offenders whom it would be too expensive to punish.

...the clear water the color of deeply steeped tea, surrounded by cattails and gracile grasses.

Without peace, justice and freedom, the true value and dignity of mankind disappears.

I also feel it usually takes four or five races to hit your best marathon for your body to be accustomed to the training AND the race itself.

The truth is, anyone can start projects. The world is full of just-started projects that looked great at the time but were never completed.

For movies to get greenlit solely based on the success of other movies that have a lot of women in them? It's so ridiculous to me.

There is one thing sure about life: Life will push us hardly many times! When you are pushed, don't be surprised; stay firm like a plane tree or be elastic like a bamboo!

I've always enjoyed watching makeup artists - but I'd like to go to the extreme and do monster makeup in movies.

Consider getting smaller in order to get bigger.
