“I like exploring life and its complexities.”

I just have a desire not to judge and view things compassionately.

Now my ability to notice things and respond to things and be here is far more profound. With that comes happiness, with it comes sadness, but it’s a beautiful life.

I suppose expectations are strange and I shy away from them. And the whole point of being an actor is to connect.

Part of our job as human beings is to share our knowledge and share the things we’ve learned. So we can either save people from making the same mistakes, or give them hope.

Breathe and don’t try to be perfect.

I refuse to let what happened to me make me bitter.

An actor who’s a control freak, that doesn’t work. We have to be malleable. We cannot come in and try to control or dominate.

That goes against what I believe morally. That’s adultery, and if I’m accused of that, no, that’s not right. I have two kids who see that and remember that and judge me. It didn’t happen, and it’s not to be reported that way.

Forget the past. You can never predict what the future is going to be. Live for the moment.

There’s something to be said for going back to a simple form of living-nature and family. There’s something very there’s safety in that.

If I fall over and make mistakes, I’ll pick myself back up and hope for the best and try to conduct myself with as much authenticity and moral code.

No matter how much you’re going to be criticized or no matter how big of a risk it is, the boldness is the thing that helps you.

I jump out of planes, I could be covered in cockroaches, I do all sorts of things, but I just don’t like the feel of butterflies’ bodies.

I’ll put it out there: I love getting hugs.

Acting runs through my blood. There is some sort of creative desire to express myself and I would need that outlet. Otherwise I would be a nightmare to live with.

I’m now so much more capable of receiving love and giving it in a far different way.

Perhaps consciousness arises when the brain’s simulation of the world becomes so complex that it must include a model of itself.

Complexity is your enemy. Any fool can make something complicated. It is hard to keep things simple.

Everywhere we look, complex magic of nature blazes before our eyes.

Simple can be harder than complex. You have to work hard to get your thinking clean to make it simple.

It’s a strange, eerie sensation to fly a lunar landing trajectory not difficult, but somewhat complex and unforgiving.

Don’t let complexity stop you.

The business schools reward difficult complex behavior more than simple behavior, but simple behavior is more effective.

People who pride themselves on their “complexity” and deride others for being “simplistic” should realize that the truth is often not very complicated. What gets complex is evading the truth.
