“When I went off to college in 1997, I didn’t go back and watch ‘Conan.’ I was out partying and dating women.”

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.

There’s a bunch of stuff I want to learn. Instead of waiting around on set all day, I’d rather be learning something cool.

I don’t think a lot of people are calling me to play doctors and lawyers, which is fine with me. I can put a suit on, but I don’t really like to.

If you’re in a small town somewhere and you can go and visit Paris, you can go to the top of Everest, that’s just cool. It’s worth it because you become more educated in something.

You get a lot of respect for ‘Game of Thrones,’ and it was a lot of fun to play, but it didn’t help my career a lot because Khal Drago doesn’t even speak English.

I get up at 5 A.M., and I train hard. I’ve got two young children, so I have to get up early. But I like it.

There’s a lot of things I would definitely go to bat for in Hawaii. I’ve been all over that stuff. If someone told me to be quiet about that because of my profession, no. That’s my people.

I grew up rock climbing.

I’ve been fascinated with Maori culture since I was a kid.

I’m trying to bring the romance back to music. Old school… Music is meant to be a part of your blood stream, and if it doesn’t affect your bloodstream, then you may as well put it back in the shoebox underneath the bed.

Every day is Thanksgiving for me, man. Yeah, I still have an audience, and they ask the local promoter, “When is Al coming back?”

What we went to World War II for, at least in my mind, was not getting taken care of. It was supposed to be a brave new world, but we were getting back into the old ruts, and we were in a cold war with Russia.

It is my fondest wish that in the fullness of time, the American people will look back on the Franken presidency as something of a mixed bag and not as a complete disaster.

The comic-book industry today is not what it was back then, unfortunately. Kids are no longer interested in reading comic books.

We need to be pro-science; we have to go back to science.

If we have George W. Bush as president, we’re going to go back to the kind of policies we had when his father and Ronald Reagan were president.

Having a life in transit, I feel like you are always looking out the back window.
