The world obviously needs to change ... if we can't protect our innocent women and children, then we have a serious problem.

I just focus on my work with inner-city kids, and in my community, and on my philanthropic work.

[I want to be remembered] as a great servant of God who tried to give back as much as possible, and as a great father and husband.

The success of 'The Fighter' made it a lot easier to get 'Broken City' green-lit. And the buzz about 'The Fighter' also made it a lot easier to get 'Contraband' green-lit.

I just want to do the best possible job with everything that I do. But I'm far more concerned with being a good father as opposed to being a good actor because that's what's really going to matter.

Clooney is just a pretty boy, man, and that's it, OK? I carried him on my back long enough. I'm on my own.

A lot of people tend to chew up the scenery. I'm a firm believer in less is more, especially on the big screen.
