My family's lineage is five generations of artists who never made it.

I've been in fights, but that doesn't make me cool or like a tough guy or more interesting actor, I'm not proud of it.

And yeah, my handicap was down to a 10 when we were at the thick of it. I trained for six or seven months, golfing every day for six hours, seven days a week, with eight trainers. It was intense.

I go to sleep at night, and I feel like I just dreamed the whole day.

You can prepare all you want, but if you never roll the dice you'll never be successful.

I think penguins are the most human of all the birds, which may be why people love them. They're cute, they stand upright and they look like they're wearing tuxedos.

Clubs are so lame. Nobody even dances at these clubs. They stand around and get drunk and they schmooze. There is no enjoyment factor.

Adversity has a way of introducing a man to himself.

I like the dark, mysterious, maybe even gothic type girls. They have to have a good personality too! I'm very picky!

I'm constantly jumping off cliffs and developing my wings on the way down. ... It's a gamble, a ... spiritual gamble. You are who you choose to be.

We can neither hurry nor hasten the works of God.

My Japanese isn’t much better today, but at least now I appreciate my duality more than when I was a punk kid.

Concentration is a powerful force, it is the mark of seriousness that attracts certain energies to complete your half-done work.

I raise my face to his, ready for the crush of his lips against mine, wanting to share more than these nervous breaths.

Guilt doesn’t stop you from doing something. It just stops you from enjoying it.

I think success right now is not about how famous you are or how much you're getting paid, but it's more about if you're steadily working and you're happy with what you're doing.

I'm always interested in new things. I don't go seeking out every band I can hear because there are too many, especially now with the Internet. There's no way you can collect everything.

I am prepared to accept from others their own version of reality. I think it is a basic freedom really, to create one's own reality from whatever truths are available.

Don’t just think it, ink it.

It's funny - nowadays people that are famous get chased by paparazzi. They have this fame, but they don't have the money to hide from it.
