“I thought, I need to be more cautious about my choices – it reflects on who I am.”

My mom and my dad never pushed me into performing. They never prohibited me from trying anything, or being anything. They never restricted me in any way. For which I’ll be forever grateful.

I’m kind of addicted to moving.

I am not a public speaker and never will be.

I didn’t want to raise my child in Hollywood.

I’m in control of my life, not anyone in Hollywood.

There’s nothing like working with your mates – it’s the way it should be, as far as I’m concerned.

I think your personal evolution runs hand in hand with your professional evolution. Performance and the person you are kind of grow simultaneously.

Introduce a little anarchy, upset the established order, and everything becomes chaos. I’m an agent of chaos, and you know the thing about chaos? It’s fair.

If you make decisions based upon people’s reactions or judgments then you make really boring choices.

It’s a little uncomfortable doing love scenes in armor, but, you know, when the heat’s on, the heat’s on.

I’m born to be a father. And I’ve been looking forward to this all my life.

The only sensible way to live in this world is without rules.

Don’t let anyone ever make you feel you don’t deserve what you want.

Anyone that has a job that takes them away from home, I think, can understand the difficulties in maintaining consistency, not only with your family and those you love but with your friends.

My life is together, both professionally and socially.

You learn more about yourself through your child, I guess.

It may be normal, darling; but I’d rather be natural.

Let me be unambiguous. I prefer not to be photographed.

I realized either I was crazy or the world was crazy; and I picked on the world. And of course I was right.

It’s better to stand by someone’s side than by yourself

I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet.

I’ll walk where my own nature would be leading: It vexes me to choose another guide: Where the grey flocks in ferny glens are feeding; Where the wild wind blows on the mountain-side.

Some people choose not to engage the battle and then don’t seek out that kind of success. And others do.

Success should not make you think you are God’s gift to mankind. You should never forget that you are what you are because God chose you to be there.
