There's certainly more work for me in TV these days.

I can't control how people are going to react. I try not to worry about what I can't control.

Life is hard for everyone. That's why there's such a nice reward at the end of it.

I think there's a down-to-earthness with Midwesterners and with people from the Midlands - which is where my family is from - in Ireland.

I think my being such a nomad let me into acting. I was always having to create a new image whenever we moved.

I mean, I've been stupid in the past, and I've learned from that.

I had to bring myself back down to being a normal person again.

I'd wear clogs, short pants and ladies' bracelets. I created this aura for myself.

Celebrity, to me, is not a thing to seek.

I don't get any parts I don't get offered. There are lots of great things out there I would like to do that I don't get offered.

I'd sneak out of the house to meet girls at 3:30 a.m.

It infuriates me to be wrong when I know I'm right.

To achieve great things, we must first dream.

Americanism is not a matter of skin or color.

When I’m reaching an audience, I feel it.

We can never be like it was at Penn State with Joe Paterno. That was an anomaly in an of itself.

Peter Mandelson is one of the most odious, self-satisfied, misogynistic men I have ever met. Compellingly, fascinatingly horrible.

I've always toured solo acoustic.

The way to love someone is to lightly run your finger over that person's soul until you find a crack, and then gently pour your love into that crack.

In my experience, it's all wonderful with girls until about 16. Around that time, boys kind of calm down and start focusing their testosterone. Girls get a little challenging, especially for fathers.

In war everybody is a prisoner.
