It can always get worse.

Since God is the foundation of my life, anything that streams from that can only be positive.

The only difference between working on a huge-budget film and a lesser-budget film, is the quality of lunch and dinner.

You don't have to make, you know, $3 Million dollars a movie, or $20 Million dollars a movie, but if you make a living doing what you love doing, then that's success to me.

I like to say that I didn't choose acting - acting chose me.

Are you intimidated by me? Because if you're intimidated by me, that's something you'll have to deal with.

I saw how, when my brother smoked reefer, it made my mother cry. He was 16 at the time. And I saw that she broke down and cried. I never wanted to hurt my mother, so I kept away from drugs.

I was never a struggling actor, for which I feel very blessed.

For me, acting was a way of releasing all of this stuff that I had inside - and a way for me to tell the stories of the people I knew, so that their spirit could live through me.

I don't give Hollywood the power to limit me. Only God can limit me.

So not only do I have to go out and fight evil villains, I have to take up woodworking, too?

My attitude is that, if you have nothing to hide, why not show it?

Censorship is always cause for celebration. It is always an opportunity because it reveals fear of reform. It means that the power position is so weak that you have got to care what people think.

My state, Scott Walker, our governors, reformed Medicaid so it actually works, so that the doctors will take the program.

Nobody can protect anybody else from vileness. Or from pain. All you can do is not let it break you in half and keep on going until you get to the other side.

I watched my head rolling on the floor. It landed face up and a big tear came out of one eye.
