It never occurred to me that I was a leading man until I was 19 years old. I had been acting since I was 10, so that's nine years and 30 or 40 plays, in school and summer stock, professional theater, too.

You can do anything you think you can.

Your body is not who you are. The mind and spirit transcend the body.

I remember telling a neurosurgeon, "Don't give me too much information, because at the moment my ignorance is my best asset."

For everyone who thought I couldn’t do it… for everyone who thought I shouldn’t do it… for everyone who said, ‘It’s impossible’… see you at the finish line!

The bigger the canvas, the better I do. I'm not so good at understated, kitchen-sink kinds of parts.

Pain is inevitable. Misery is a choice.
