Babies aren't really born of their parents. They are born of every kind word, loving gesture, hope, and dream their parents ever had.

My life at home gives me absolute joy. There are some days when, as soon as you've finished cooking breakfast and cleaning up the kitchen, it's time to start lunch, and by the time you've done that, you're doing dinner and thinking, 'There has to be a menu we can order from.'

Something that's such a joy in my life every day - cooking - is this incredible, horrific danger to women around the world.

I certainly take work as a joyous responsibility.

When I was a child I had a crush on Abraham Lincoln. Why I would choose to reveal this, I know not.

I am an actor and of course I respond very positively to flattery.

It's amazing what can happen if you just put your arm around somebody.
