My life is okay, my life is pretty good.

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.

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!

No man or woman is uniformly successful... we must all expect a rather high percentage of failure in the things we attempt.

None of us is in a position to eliminate war, but it is our obligation to denounce it and expose it in all its hideousness. War leaves no victors, only victims.

Somehow, it seems that the sadder a song is, the happier I feel. The release of emotions that many would label as 'negative' is actually a liberating process for me.

Under our scheme of government the waste of public money is a crime against the citizen.

If we don't pay attention to [nonviolent protests], they are invisible, and it's as if they never happened. But I have seen first hand that if we do, they will multiply.

Even back then, I exuded self-confidence, and that drives women crazy.

I've worked with everyone from Ice Cube to Snoop Dogg ... right across to working with pop stars like Justin Timberlake. Why those artists came to me is because they wanted my sound.

You know that first of all your films have to make money no matter who you are.
