In a career playing heroes, I learned a little about the real thing. A hero stands up-for himself, for herself, but most importantly for others.

I've always said even the most hardened pro-choice people would be just devastated to watch an actual birth and then watch a baby be killed before their eyes.

People can be good, people can be generous, people can be helpful. People can help those who are in need when they need it.

Work hard, believe in your dreams, follow your dreams, don't give up, don't let failures hold you back. Those things were preached to me. They've taken a firm rooting system in my beliefs and what I'm passing on to my kids.

Hollywood likes to put out their own message out a lot of times, and that message isn't the best one for everyone.

If you ever watched 'Hercules,' you can see that it was made in a comical way for the most part. I remember getting lots of letters from kids around the world saying that the show helped them curb their temper and not look for trouble and just walk away from it because that was the stronger thing to do.

I've always been a religious guy, but not overly religious. I've always believed in God and Jesus. I pray.
