When I was young, my parents made me listen to old music and watch Jimmy Durante. I fell in love with the whole mystique of acting and entertainment.

There's a film I did called 'Front of the Class', about a teacher who had Tourette's. That was a beautiful blend of drama and comedy. There's some great moments of levity in the script.

Anytime you get to join a group of people you admire and respect, you want to keep those doors open.

In a great play or a great film, there's a rehearsal period and they find this character. On TV, everything moves fast.

When you feel moved by the story, you want to tell that story.

In my everyday life, I'm a jeans and button-up shirt kind of guy.

I always feel like hard work leads the way, and from there, I leave it up to the powers that be.

I worked in television now for a few years. I think summer has become a really exciting time for television shows. And I think it's become a time for shows to distinguish themselves.

No one ever judges their own self.

I just grew up loving acting and loving entertainment.

I have a dog. I'm a dog lover.

Human resources are just tremendous in Egypt but we need the science base.

Given the millions of billions of Earth-like planets, life elsewhere in the Universe without a doubt, does exist. In the vastness of the Universe we are not alone.

In most cases, my visits to the West are for promotion of human values and religious harmony.

An artist feels vulnerable to begin with; and yet the only answer is to recklessly discard more armour.

Every individual matters and has a role to play in this life on Earth.

Don't wish for less problems; wish for more skills.

Everyone wants a voice in human freedom. There's a fire burning inside all of us.

I think the vice of our housekeeping is that it does not hold man sacred. The vice of government, the vice of education, the viceof religion, is one with that of the private life.

A tremendous amount of energy is freed up when you feel that your vision is actually respected and cared for by the people you're working with.

They try to make you think they care about what you do but they don't. They don't want you to act a certain way. So you're easy to understand. So you won't pose a threat to them.
