“I don’t want to die without scars.”

Any love involves loss, and that’s the risk you take. And the greater the love, the greater the loss. I certainly feel that now with the woman I’m with, and the children that I have. But whatever the course may be, this time together is extraordinary.

Do you know how you tell real love? It’s when someone else’s interest trumps your own.

When I got untethered from the comfort of religion, it wasn’t a loss of faith for me, it was a discovery of self. I had faith that I’m capable enough to handle any situation. There’s peace in understanding that I have only one life, here and now, and that I’m responsible.

Gay marriage is inevitable. The next generation, they get it. It is just a matter of time before it becomes a reality.

Being married means I can break wind and eat ice cream in bed.

The idea that marriage has to be for all time – that I don’t understand.

I’ve been in these tabloids for 14 years now, and at some point you just become a Zen master of it all.

I quit, and then I started again, and then I quit, and then I started again.

I always liked those moments of epiphany, when you have the next destination.

My happiest moment is the day they call wrap and I’m free. I’m not looking back.

I keep hearing I’m a crazy party guy. I’m not. I’m boring. At least by party standards.

I’m actually very snobbish about directors. I have to say no all the time. ‘No’ is the most powerful word in our business. You’ve got to protect yourself… To leave home, it’s got to be worth leaving. It’s got to be worth it.

What’s valuable to me has become clearer as I’ve got older. To me, it’s about the value of your time and your day and the value of the people you spend it with.

Each misstep leads to the next correct step.

Let us be the ones who say we do not accept that a child dies every three seconds simply because he does not have the drugs you and I have. Let us be the ones to say we are not satisfied that your place of birth determines your right for life. Let us be outraged; let us be loud; let us be bold.

We’re consumers. We are by-products of a lifestyle obsession.

Men dislike being awakened from their death in life.

I’d marry again if I found a man who had fifteen million dollars, would sign over half to me, and guarantee that he’d be dead within a year.

Treason seldom dwells with courage.

When life is so burdensome death has become a sought after refuge.

Come he slow or come he fast it is but death that comes at last.

Memories -images and precious thoughts that shall not die and cannot be destroyed.

With the newspaper strike on, I wouldn’t consider dying.

I don’t know any more about the future than you do. I hope that it will be full of work, because I have come to know by experience that work is the nearest thing to happiness that I can find. I want a busy life, a just mind and a timely death.
