The blessing that this film business has given me is that when I walk into a school I automatically have everyone's attention. They want to hear what the guy from 'Con Air' and 'Desperado' has to say.

I relate to any prison movie, as long as it has some authenticity.

Everything good that's ever happened to me came out of helping others.

When people clap for me I say, don't clap for me, clap for what God has done.

Acting is just a job. I'm exactly the same as that lady bringing us coffee, and I have to remember that.

I didn't make a deal with God, because you can't make a deal with God. He put me here to talk to kids and to talk to drunks and help addicts. He gave me this "job" which makes it a lot easier to get through to people.

I never imagined that I'd be out of prison.
