Just because you fall in love with someone doesn't mean that your families are going to fall in love with each other.

I love that period, between the '20s and the '60s. I love doing period pieces, and those eras are my favorite period in time, music wise, and the elegance and the way of being.

When you are really in love, you become vulnerable, and insecurities come out of nowhere.

I want to play roles that I'm proud of, that I feel a certain integrity about, and I want to continue to be truthful in the work that I do.

There is a little bit of me infused in every character I play.

Eventually one day I want to direct, but as of right now my next cap that I'm looking for is the producer cap.

I'm flattered that women think that I'm sexy.

There was a day where I was sitting at my desk, working 90-hour work weeks, in a suit, looking at a computer, with all these pitch books on my desk, and I just thought, "This can't be my life..."

I'm a martial artist. I've boxed all my life. I work out. I studied Hwarangdo, which is a Korean style.

I believe in my heart that 'Avatar' is going to be the revolutionary sci-fi movie for this generation, in this era.

I've been very blessed to work in some films that I'm very proud of.

It is never over until you are greatly rewarded for all your blood, sweat and tears.

But steel bars have never yet kept out a mob it takes something a good deal stronger: human courage backed up by the consciousness of being right.

Our years Glide silently away. No tears, No loving orisons repair The wrinkled cheek, the whitening hair That drop forgotten to the tomb.

The time I burned my guitar it was like a sacrifice. You sacrifice the things you love. I love my guitar.

I have a lot of faith in people.

I prefer being known for my stand-up because I write it. I love being an actor, and saying other people's words is great. But then, when I do stand-up, I love getting my own point of view out there.

A guy like Malcolm who makes that type of quick, instinctive plays, that's one of his strong suits. I don't think it surprised any of us players because that's what his skill set is.

Yeah, I made it. It sneaks up on you. You're some schmuck and you wake up one day and you go, Good God, I'm the cheese.

Sometimes we make duaa for a door of dunya. When it doesn't open, we cry. Not realizing that Allah has instead opened a door of jennah for us.
