“I felt a tremendous sadness for men who can’t deal with a woman of their own age.”

I’ve never been out with a married woman, never. I respect others’ properties.

For all my education, accomplishments, and so called ‘wisdom’… I can’t fathom my own heart.

To me, growing old is great. It’s the very best thing – considering the alternative.

There’s quite a lot of bad stuff written about me. My wife even says a lot of bad stuff about me. But she is wonderful.

I was so poor for so long that I didn’t use anything. I didn’t drive cars, I didn’t eat very much. So, I figured the world owed me a debt, so I’ve been eating very well and have had a very big car for a long time. But I still haven’t caught up with my youth.

I’ve always loved reprehensible people because they’re so much more interesting to play on screen.

I have a knack of making villainous people a little bit sympathetic, a bit of fun on screen.

What a lot of people dont realize about gangs, in my opinion, is that a gang is not there to attack you. Eighty percent of the people in a gang are there to stop anyone from attacking them. You join a gang for protection, not to go out and hit someone.

At age 11, I went to a Jewish school. I speak Yiddish. I’m Church of England Protestant. My father was Catholic, and my mother was Protestant. My wife is a Muslim.

I’m looking for me to disappear, and the acting to disappear, and all you see is a real person.

About Superman and Batman: the former is how America views itself, the latter, darker character is how the rest of the world views America.

I enjoy making people laugh. The trick is to tell them jokes against yourself. If you praise yourself, your stories aren’t funny.

If you’re a movie actor, you’re on your own – you cannot control the stage. The director controls it.

The basic rule of human nature is that powerful people speak slowly and subservient people quickly – because if they don’t speak fast enough, nobody will listen to them.

When becoming a character, you have to steal. Steal whatever you see. You can even steal from other actors’ characterizations; but if you do, only steal from the best.

I usually control the environment I’m in, but my control is very quiet and subtle.

My mother encouraged me to be artistic. It was written in a contract at an early age that I would be an artist.

Relish love in your old age! Aged love is like aged wine; it becomes more satisfying, more refreshing, more valuable, more appreciated and more intoxicating!

Making your voice heard, even if you are like me and not of voting age, is important today and everyday.

He is many things – dangerous and devious, cunning and deadly, a good friend and an implacable enemy – but he comes from an age when a man’s word was indeed precious.

Attitude defines your age.

I don’t feel like a 27-year-old; I feel I am way mature than someone that age.

I never gave up Christianity until I was forty years of age.

Age is just a number; maturity is a choice.
