I'm a patriot of the heart.

Boxing is a great exercise ... as long as you can yell "cut" whenever you want to.

I tend to think of action movies as exuberant morality plays in which good triumphs over evil.

To know that the odds are so high that only through the perishing of your life will the minions survive, that's love. That's heroism.

I'm a big believer that, in life, we can't succeed in everything. Most times, we lose.

When life hits you pretty hard, you can go into a dark corner.

The only thing that I haven't done is perform brain surgery on myself. I've been very, very lucky. I've spared Shakespeare undue stress by not doing that.
