But there is no danger of my not concentrating on cricket. I'm comfortable on the pitch, and that will never change. I have to remember what I do for a living

I'm ugly, I'm overweight, but I'm happy

That means I can drive a flock of sheep through the town centre, drink for free in no less than 64 pubs and get a lift home with the police when I become inebriated. What more could you want?

Captaincy is something you get better at through experience. You've got to trust your instincts.

A lot of the lads have a bat for the nets, a bat for facing the bowling machine and a separate bat for the match. I'll just crack on with a bat until it breaks - then crack on with another one.

I'm not too good with packing. I always have every intention of doing it the week before and then leave it until the last moment - but at least I do it myself, I don't leave it to the missus.

It's far more daunting than bowling to Ricky Ponting or facing Shane Warne

There are times when I have felt the pressure, but at the moment I play cricket the only way I can.

When I have a day off, I will have a day off.

We have to take care of our own game. There's only one place we've got to stick up for ourselves and that's the pitch.

I'm not really someone who looks forward to the gym. But I realise it's something that I have to do to perform well on the pitch.

Love is burning in my heart, oh love is shining from the start, don’t let it die tonight

Becoming a part of a movement doesn't help anybody think clearly.

Love truly does have the power to transcend evil. It can get us through the most unspeakable of events and give us the strength to keep on putting one foot in front of the other.

I know that I loved music before I loved movies, simply because I didn't see movies as a kid.

Volunteer. Sometimes the jobs no one wants conceal big opportunities.

I may not be wealthy; I'm living from pay check to pay check, but I get to make movies, which is what I love to do.

Live Freaky! Die Freaky! will be, without a shadow of a doubt, the single greatest film of all time about Charles Manson being the savior to all humanity in the year 3069.

My kid gets me out of bed in the morning.

It's difficult for a company to be anywhere interesting in a world that is so dominated by prototypes and great and bright ideas.

Tonality is a natural force, like gravity.
