“Your kids need your love and attention, and being able to devote myself to them is very fulfilling. As I get older, spending time with my daughters makes things much easier. You learn to put your ego aside.”

You can’t undo the past but you can certainly not repeat it.

There is nothing better than strolling down the beach the way God made you.

Too many children in foster care are falling through cracks. Be a hero, take the time learn about adoption today.

I think that there are a lot of law enforcement officers out there who work according to their own set of what is right and what is wrong. And that doesn’t always include respect for administration cops, you know, people that are higher up the food chain.

At 25, you’ve got millions of brain cells to kill.

I believe in justice, and I believe in people being held responsible for their actions.

It doesn’t matter how many people I’ve killed. What matters is how I get along with the people who are still alive.

All the films are hits before you turn the camera on. It’s only in the execution that they fail. I’ve been less than happy with the way a couple of films were edited, but it’s a director’s prerogative and you gotta go with it.

There’s a long history of all kinds of cop films… But all these films are really about the same thing: the good guys triumphing over the bad guys.

Everybody, no matter how old you are, is around 24, 25 in their heart.

I just have more fun when I get to try new things – and the action film genre has kind of painted itself into a corner, copied itself so many times and it has basically run out of bad buys.

Negative, I am a meat popsicle.

I think I’m even more open and more giving as a father now. I pay more attention now because I value it more and I’m less caught up with my career.

I hate government. I’m apolitical. Write that down. I’m not a Republican.

I have just as many liberal ideas as I have conservative ideas that I argue with myself sometimes.

I think I’m much more afraid of making a mistake in raising my daughters than I would be with any work that I do, as an actor. It’s a much higher scale of fear, raising kids.

As an actor, you people-watch, you observe. And the more famous you become, the sad thing is you lose the ability to do that. Instead of people-watching, you become the focus of attention.

The constant attention is what is so difficult.

I always do get a little bit paranoid when I get a lot of attention. But I get used to it.

I find something fascinating about the quiet man in the background who has no desire to be the center of attention.

Again, (America is) a stupid country with stupid people who don’t pay attention.

I don’t really pay a lot of attention to trolls.

To get a man’s attention, just stand in front of the TV and don’t move. He’ll talk to you. I promise.

He’s not the finest character that ever lived. But he’s a human being, and a terrible thing is happening to him. So attention must be paid.
