You can't say, "I'm gonna make a hit movie." You're as dead as you could be.

I respect the social graces enormously. How to pass the food. Don't yell from one room to another. Don't go through a closed door without a knock. Open the doors for the ladies. All these millions of simple household behaviors make for a better life. We can't live in constant rebellion against our parents - it's just silly. I'm very well mannered. It's not an abstract thing. It's a shared language of expectations.

I usually don't get too bogged down with my personal problems because that's a one-way street if you get yourself into a negative frame of mind and only see the dark side of life.

I've always fought against being controlled and manipulated and stomped upon by circumstances.

I've always thought basketball was the best sport, although it wasn't the sport I was best at. It was just the most fun to watch.

Son, we live in a world that has walls and those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Who's gonna do it? You!?

I wanted to be the best actor possible. I worked very hard at the craft of it.
