I grew up Mormon. I wasn't really Mormon, my parents were.

I'm attracted to films that have strong female characters because there are strong female characters in my life.

In New York, you're forced to deal with life; it's there in front of you on a daily basis.

For me, I sort of felt like it was kind of a fairytale... but an interesting one. I don't know of anybody who has had a romance quite like this, but I certainly know people who have stuck it out.

I'm waiting to get old - I think old guys with tattoos look good.

I feel it's important to show that one thing that you do doesn't define you as a human being. It doesn't mean there aren't ramifications or you shouldn't pay for that but, its not who you are.

I’ve been lucky, so lucky, working with [...] Rachel (McAdams) on The Notebook. A big draw for me, when I do a film, is who am I going to be opposite, because there’s only so much I can do on my own.
