I directed a movie back in the '90s which had calf roping in it, and I got into it quite a bit back then.

Sometimes in movies, I still have to be the hero, but it's not all that important to me anymore.

You have to have the fire in your belly. I'm having more fun now with acting than I did when I first started out, because I'm doing it just because I really enjoy it. I'm not trying to "make it" anymore. I'm not trying to be anything, you know? The biggest this and that for anybody. I'm just enjoying it.

There are three things being a celebrity is good for: raising money for charity, dinner reservations and tee times.

Before I was an actor, I was never able to hold a job for more than 3 months for some reason. It just wouldn't hold my interest, so there was some way that I wound up quitting or getting fired from it. But being an actor is perfect, because movies usually take about three months to shoot. Then it's over and they say, 'Hey, great job!'

I always wanted to be an astronaut.

I'm an idol of cinema? Oh, wow.
