For me as a man, philosophically, when you talk about honor and integrity, that’s the way I want to live my life. It moved me.

If I don’t talk about my religion, if I say I’m not discussing it or different humanitarian things I’m working on, they’re like, “He’s avoiding it.” If I do talk about it, it becomes, “Oh, he’s proselytizing.”

In this life, it's not what you hope for, it's not what you deserve - it's what you take!

We were going to do what it took to do this picture, whatever time, because I felt - and Nic [Nicole Kidman] did, too - that this was going to be a really special time for us. We knew it would be difficult. But I would have absolutely kicked myself if I hadn`t done this.

I don't pretend to be the character. I am the character.

They smell good. They look pretty. I love women. I do.
