When I go home, I try to raise my children with honesty and integrity and teach them to take care of the world and of each other.

I just let the work speak for itself. An actor is not afraid to take risks; to put on different hats; to be a good guy, a bad guy, a victim, an abuser. There are all kinds of people in the world, and playing them is what acting is all about.

I don't watch the movies I make, so I haven't seen 'Footloose' since it came out. You see this young, hungry actor, it's pretty fun. I was the only one they screen tested. It was an attempt by the director and producer to talk the head of the studio into hiring me because they didn't want me.

If I'm in a situation where someone doesn't recognize me and treats me like everyone else, I'm not used to it.

The business that people do in LA on the social level is amazing. You go to a restaurant, bump into this guy or that guy. The next day you get a call, and they want you in their movie.

I'd love to be a pop idol. Of course, my groupies are now between 40 and 50.

I'd always tried not to worry about the size of the role or the size of the film.
