In the John Wayne movies, the Indians were savages that were trying to scalp you. That culture has really suffered because of the stereotype you see in those westerns.

There are going to be peaks and valleys in everything - in your marriage, in your job, in your life. So just enjoy the peaks and ride out the valleys. Just try not to do anything too rash.

I think one of the things that saved me is that I never put all my eggs in one basket.

I spent my whole childhood wishing I were older and now I'm spending my adulthood wishing I were younger.

I always knew I was going to be a family man.

My career was full of struggles and dreams, disappointments and peaks and valleys. But there was no Twitter, no Facebook or TMZ. Young actors could make mistakes and not become the focus of tabloids.

It does not matter whether you have religion or are an agnostic believe in nothing, You can only appreciate (without knowing or understanding) the mysteries of life.

When I was younger, the main struggle was to be a 'good writer.' Now I more or less take my writing abilities for granted, although this doesn't mean I always write well.

I don't like when things don't match. I love some Eighties fashion, like Grace Jones but primary colours only work in certain situations.

Cheap thrill: moral outrage revels in its own innocence and in the guilt of the wicked Others.

You do everything you weren't allowed to do in school. Jumping up and down, screaming, annoying people, and people love you for it.
