What I really am is a homebody. I was a homebody even before I had a family. My days are filled with home stuff.

As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a gangster.

I really believe that you never stop learning.

I'm not a proponent of people watching a movie, and then going out and doing something bad. People have been doing bad things, well before movies.

I just - you know, some people just have some very full laughter - full of joy - and have no shame or fear of letting that out.

I didn't like some of the movies that were coming into me

I was on a soap opera before that for three years, where I was the nicest guy on earth.

You're always - you're constantly learning things if you're the type of person who stays open and current.

Suddenly playing the charming bad guy was my thing.

I know when I go to a movie I want to experience something, whether to laugh, to cry, to feel bad.

So, you need to balance it out with bigger and smaller movies.

I would pray that I'd leave a legacy of faith, trust and joy. For the joy of the Lord has been my strength and song, and I praise Him.

Yesterday, Attorney General John Ashcroft had surgery to remove his gall bladder. Doctors say the surgery was difficult because Ashcroft refused to take his clothes off.

People are where they are because that is exactly where they really want to be - whether they will admit that or not.

I have to wear two sports bras when I do my cardio. It takes a lot to hold these puppies up!

A lot of people who wanted to audition for Idol have asked me: “What should I do?” or “How to I prepare myself?” I always told them: “Just go in and believe in yourself.”

A favor is never so long-lived as a grudge.

In the future, it will become increasingly obvious that your competitors are just as clueless as you are.

It is through creating, not possessing, that life is revealed.
