Speaking very generally, I find that women are spiritually, emotionally, and often physically stronger than men.

You choose your friends by their character and your socks by their color.

I wasn't ever a huge fan of comics. Just not one of those kids, you know?

Overall I enjoy a certain anonymity. I live a very normal, very ordinary life.

At 23 it was all about acting. Today it's getting my kids to school, making sure that they've done their homework. I'm in my fifties, and I'm turning into a square.

Growing up in a particular neighborhood, growing up in a working-class family, not having much money, all of those things fire you and can give you an edge, can give you an anger.

And of course I've got kids of my own now, and they love me being in the Harry Potter films. I'm now part of a phenomenon. You become incredibly cool to your kids, and you get a young fan base. So you became the cool dad at school. You're suddenly hip.
