“We have cultural depth. We get all kinds of stuff to chew on, to live on.”

I think if people value democracy, they had damn well better get out and exercise their right to vote while their vote still means something.

What’s changed? I’m a dad. That’s fundamental. Watching your kids grow, you go back a bit.

Certain kinds of people just can’t live life taking risks with adventure.

Dynamic benign neglect.

The pervasive attitude is that it’s crazy to invite more danger into your life.

We have a society that’s trying to make sure that nobody gets any adventures because adventures are dangerous and danger is bad.

That’s right! The women are smarter!

To play Khal Drogo was phenomenal, and I wished there was more stuff he could have done. I’m going to miss that character.

For flavor, instant sex will never supersede the stuff you have to peel and cook.

Every memory I had growing up was involving a basketball. I didn’t go to the prom and stuff like that. It was always basketball for me.

I would describe my style as off the wall. I like stuff that doesn’t match. I just like to stand out.

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.

The more stuff I do, the more stuff I talk about – having kids, traveling, going through relationship problems, dealing with things in my own family. All that stuff builds character.

I’ve kissed just three people in my life, other than stuff that I’ve done for TV or movies. I know – I’m weird!

I’ll only retire in the day I should be dead and they have me buried, and some idiot spell over my casket some stupid gospel stuff.
