“I have my ups and my downs like anyone. All I can do is be me.”

I’m a strong alpha male but sensitive.

I’ve got kids, goats. My wife always wanted a donkey, so I bought her one.

The reason why I wanted to direct is because there are personal stories that I want to tell, but also because I love every part of movie making – from the wardrobe to the set decoration to cinematography.

I’m half Hawaiian and the haka is a very sacred thing, something your family teaches you – my father taught me.

I was a snowboard bum and a climbing bum.

I was raised by a strong single mother.

That’s one of the great things about being an actor. You get to learn all these things normal people don’t get to learn.

I always loved samurai movies, and I wanted to incorporate that whole level of elegance and just the code of the samurai to ‘Conan.’

I’ve done a lot of dumb things in my life.

My mom’s an artist in every way. She’s a painter, a photographer. She’s a wanderer – always searching, always seeing. I guess you could say my mom gave me her eyes.

I want to be remembered as, I hope, an amazing husband and a great father.

I actually went to study with the Ramapoughs in New York. I wanted to be able to see the mountains and the forest, be around the people.

I grew up being an artist, but also rock-climbing and traveling the world and teaching my kids.

I’m not going to normally get hired to play those emotional things, and I’m capable of it. I was raised by a single mother in Iowa – I’m just trapped in a big, dumb body.

I can’t wait until I get to play the fat guy in the office.

My wife’s Lisa Bonet. I’m a very lucky man.

I suppose a cry does us all good at times-clears the air as other rain does.

The infinity of All ever bringing forth anew, and even as infinite space is around us, so is infinite potentiality, capacity, reception, malleability, matter.

The main propoganda trick of supporters of the allegedly “progressive” policy of government control is to blame capitalism for all that is unsatisfactory in present-day conditions and to extol the blessings of socialism. They have never attempted to prove their fallacious dogmas.

When you put someone down all the time, eventually they stop listening to the sensible stuff.

There are about 30 words around you all the time, like ‘thread’ or ‘exit.’

All human problems are ultimately symptoms, and our separation from God is the cause.

The state reserves the right to be the sole interpreter of the needs of society.

You know, many people have said that I’m on the edge and I’m maverick for some of the big operations that I’ve done. I’m not at all. I pray; I ask God to give me wisdom, ‘Should I do it?’, guidance in terms of how to do it, who to consult with. All those kind of things are incredibly important.
