It was important to have a similar energy in my performance. To make the character too different would have just been about my ego because it didn't need to be drastically different.

Well no, I think we won't have that problem but as far as paparazzi I'm speaking, I will deal with that.

I could finally quit my job as a bartender and stop dreaming that I might be Superman and know that I was. Then I started thinking about how cool it was.

Christopher Reeve did such an amazing job that to give him some kind of accent or more bravado would have been wrong. Audiences wouldn't have responded to that either.

I've found the best way is to not be scared of the attention but to be grateful for it and open to it. It makes my days better rather than being annoyed that people want my attention.

I'm very excited to see where the characters and their relationships go. But in the end, it really boils down to the people who have more power than me, who control the money.

Well physically preparing for the role, definitely and then continuing to stay physically fit throughout filming, getting up, 4.00 4.30 in the morning.

There are things about growing up in a small town that you can't necessarily quantify.

There's a great legacy before me. Many, many fantastic actors, artists, writers have come before me and created Superman. I'm very honored to be able to be a part of it.

I'm kind of looking for something with a lot less action and more talking and listening.

I knew very early on that there would be quite a bit of attention: Superman is known all over the place.

Maybe every once in a while we can take a break from doing everything faster and quicker to reflect on who we are and where we are going.

Both God and goodness are structured upon a foundation which solicits the essentials of higher level logic – a part of holy-istic culture.

We all work with one infinite power.

We're all competitors, you know? The player wants to get a hit. The manager wants to win. I want to get it right. To tell you the truth, I just love that competition.

Read two newspapers a day. And not just online. Hold them in your hands. Get ink on your fingers.

To me, figure skating is an art form, and that's what I always try to bring in, even to my competitive programs.

...and while ambition sleeps inside of me I content myself with memories of glitter and despair.

I'm good at disguising my feelings.

Is life worth living? It all depends on the liver.
