You can't understand it until you experience the simple joy of the first time your son points at a seagull and says 'Duck!'

I am a man that has a lot of respect for faith and spirituality. I think it is important that we talk about religion in today's world.

I always say I've given 24 insufficient performances and I'm looking forward to the time in my life when I'll do something that I think is good. There's always stuff you can do better, stuff that maybe you didn't uncover enough. But if you do something that you truly believe is perfect, then that's got to be the last movie you do.

My children have never watched any of my films. Charlie knows that daddy makes movies, but he says they are not good enough for him to watch.

If you grow up ... in the suburbs of anywhere, a dream like this seems kind of vaguely ludicrous and completely unattainable, this moment is directly connected to those childhood imaginings. And for anybody who's on the downside of advantage, and relying purely on courage, it's possible.

I have to believe I got some kind of say over our lives.

God bless America, God Save the Queen, God defend New Zealand and thank Christ for Australia.
