After Stand By Me came out, people were telling me, 'You're so good,' 'You're going to be a star,' and things like that. You can't think about it. If you take it the wrong way, you can really get high on yourself. People get so lost when that happens to them. They may think they have everything under control, but everything is really out of control. Their lives are totally in pieces.

Although I can't stop all cruelty to living creatures on the planet, I can be kinder to every living creature in my life.

Animals can't really voice their opinion. We feel as though we can be on of the spokespeople on their behalf.

Commercials were too phony for me. I just didn't like selling products I didn't believe in.

We're all worth it, man. We're all worth millions of planets and stars and galaxies and universes.

I can’t on my own change the regime in South Africa or teach the Palestinians to learn to live with the Israelies, but I can start with me.

I'd like to play every type of character, but only once. I like to expierence things.
