“Organized religions in general, in my opinion, are dying forms.”

There’s a long history of all kinds of cop films… But all these films are really about the same thing: the good guys triumphing over the bad guys.

Everybody, no matter how old you are, is around 24, 25 in their heart.

I just have more fun when I get to try new things – and the action film genre has kind of painted itself into a corner, copied itself so many times and it has basically run out of bad buys.

Negative, I am a meat popsicle.

I think I’m even more open and more giving as a father now. I pay more attention now because I value it more and I’m less caught up with my career.

I hate government. I’m apolitical. Write that down. I’m not a Republican.

I have just as many liberal ideas as I have conservative ideas that I argue with myself sometimes.

I think I’m much more afraid of making a mistake in raising my daughters than I would be with any work that I do, as an actor. It’s a much higher scale of fear, raising kids.

After I did the first Die Hard I said I’d never do another, same after I did the second one and the third. The whole genre was running itself into the ground.

I just try to go to work, and concentrate on coming home to my girls.

Die Hard 2 was okay. It was a little outside the template but it was okay, a hard movie to make technically. Did well at the box office. Successful.

Nine million terrorists in the world and I gotta kill one with feet smaller than my sister.

You wouldn’t want to see a movie where the bad guys triumph over the good guys all the time. You’d get bummed out, and you’d just stay at home and watch the news.

No one ever thinks about what the hell is going to happen 25 years from now.

I’m really just a regular guy who has had an incredibly blessed life.

Everyone has a right to bear arms. If you take guns away from legal gun owners, then the only people who have guns are the bad guys.

We all die eventually but how we lived stays forever.

We are always in awe of what the donors have done in terms of providing of themselves to the recipients. It really is a heroic act because people take on themselves not only a risk of death but also pain-and-suffering in order for their loved one to get the benefit of the liver transplant.

I have wrestled with death. It is the most unexciting contest you can imagine.

Here I am trying to live, or rather, I am trying to teach the death within me how to live.

I’ve just read that I am dead. Don’t forget to delete me from your list of subscribers.

Our Saviour would love at no less rate than death; and from the supereminent height of glory, stooped and debased Himself to the sufferance of the extremest of indignities, and sunk himself to the bottom of abjectness, to exalt our condition to the contrary extreme.

By logic and reason we die hourly; by imagination we live.

As the sun is best seen at his rising and setting, so men’s native dispositions are clearest seen when they are children, and when they are dying.
